Keeping An Eye On Blood Glucose Has Never Been Easier

As a recently diagnosed diabetic, I was instructed to check my blood glucose levels at least twice a day, every day. To say that this was a daunting task is an understatement. I searched online for a long time looking for a meter that would be easy to use and provide peace of mind on a couple of levels.

The Accu-Chek Aviva System Blood Glucose Meter is everything that I was looking for. It's compact and easy to tuck away in a drawer. The sides are made of an easy-grip rubber that keeps it from slipping out of my hands, which removes one of my biggest fears; messing up the drawing of blood.

Speaking of drawing blood, this little meter only requires a tiny drop (0.6 microliter) to accurately and quickly give me a reading. And when I say quick, I mean it: 5 seconds. That's it!

Lastly, if you're like me, it's easy to forget to take a reading. The Accu-Chek Aviva System Blood Glucose Meter has a built-in test reminder! And to top it off, it will record my readings and average out my scores for me. It really couldn't be any easier. I highly recommend this product.

DME Featured Products: Completely Unrelated Products Day

Today we will be featuring two very special products. They are special because, as the title suggests, they are completely unrelated. Where as normally our featured products maintain some kind of common theme or trait, today's picks are completely random.

Diabetes care has really come a long way. In ancient times diabetics were requires to check their blood with little more than sharpened stones. The bronze age brought about some improvements but bronze needles tended to bend easily. The iron age, while huge for the plate armor industry, actually saw little in the way of care for diabetes patients. In those days doctor forms had pretty much one question: "Do you have the plague? ( ) Yes ( ) No" Henry Ford actually aspired to put a diabetes testing kit in every home in America until he was informed that not everyone in America had diabetes. He reluctantly turned to manufacturing automobiles, but I digress. The OneTouch Ultra 2 System is the latest in blood monitor systems from Lifescan. A single microliter of blood (that's barely a spec) is enough to deliver results in just 5 seconds. Samples can be taken from the finger forearm or palm. The Ultra 2 features before and after meal testing to give you the most accurate measurement of how your dietary practices effect your glucose levels.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the greatest product to ever come from DMESupplyGroup. The Medline Purrfect Opener. What does it do, you ask? What if I said everything. That's right everything. The Purrfect Opener is the one tool that every pill taker should own. This single device aids in all of the following; splitting pills, pushing pills through foil, pushing off medicine caps, opening childproof caps, removing cotton (I hate those things), and opening pull tabs. You might say "Could not all of these functions be provided by a fork from my kitchen?" Possibly, but is your fork shaped like an adorable kitten? I should say not. That is why you must buy the Purrfect Opener today! (also available in the shape of a dog).

Check out these and many other great products at www.DMESupplyGroup.com.
