Don't waste your time and money. The "Kit" does not come with the supplies to actually test your glucose, no lancing device, no lancets, no test strips. It's useless. Greater Diabetics doesn't even know what the contents should be, Easy Glucose denies any responsibility and told me to deal with GD. Stop by your local pharmacy and buy a kit where you can go back and talk with somebody in person. I've been had.

Great Product that reads blood sugar in 5 seconds. 5 Stars
Seller gets 3 stars for having a picture of the 100ct box (10 test disk with 10 disks per box). There were cheaper vendors for the 50ct box that had the correct picture. I gambled that the picture was right and lost. Would have been an excellent deal for the 100ct.

e-pill 12 Alarm Watch. CADEX Medication Reminder & Medical Alarm (Identification) ID Watch. SILVER with Black Rubber Strap. Review

e-pill 12 Alarm Watch. CADEX Medication Reminder and Medical Alarm (Identification) ID Watch. SILVER with Black Rubber Strap.

This watch is terrific for reminding you when you have multiple medications you need to take during the day, especially when you are away from home. There are very few watches (or alarm clocks) out there that provide multiple alarms.
However, when the battery runs down, you are stuck. It has 4 tiny hard to unscrew screws. And then the battery seems to be glued inside. Then I read the manual, and it says you have to take it to a jeweler to be replaced. With every other digital watch I have ever owned, you could unsnap the case or unscrew it with a quarter and replace the battery yourself. Why couldn't they have done that with this watch?

CardioChek Home Basic Analyzer; Portable Blood Cholesterol Tester; PTS Panels #730 Review

CardioChek Home Basic Analyzer; Portable Blood Cholesterol Tester; PTS Panels #730
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love having this device at home, and being able to test any time I want to, rather then having to make an appointment with the lab and fighting about copay etc.
I test for Cholesterol, HDL and Triglyceride on this unit. I also test for Glucose, but I do that on another system.
The only downside with this system is that you need to make three seperate tests (meaning you have to use three different strips) to get the three values. To not have to prick my fingers three times in a row, I use a depper setting for the pin, so I can still squeeze blood out of the prick for the third test (yes, it hurts!). It takes a total of about 3 minutes or so to get the unit started, setup and through each test, so you have to be patient. It does take some getting used to the first couple of times before you get the hang of applying the blood. That's why I still test glucose on another system that need less blood and where it's easier to apply. Also the test strips for this unit are not really cheap. The application of the blood and the strip price make this a 4-1/2 stars in my mind rather then a full 5 stars.
All in all this is a solid product, and I am very happy about the flexibility it gives me. I can test every couple of weeks now, which gives me the advantage of tying my values to life style changes and food choices.

Kids / Children's Adjustable Wrist Band Medical Alert ID Bracelet~ Purple Flowers Review

Kids / Children's Adjustable Wrist Band Medical Alert ID Bracelet~ Purple Flowers
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a terrific wristband!
It feels like a watch, doesn't draw attention, but is still easily recognizable as a medical ID when it's necessary to look for one on your body. I forget that I'm wearing it, it's that comfortable! And it's extremely secure- it won't ever fall off on its own.
I own the Pink Camo in Youth/Medium, and the pink colors are very rich- much better looking in real life than in the faded picture. It is not a light pink color, but a magenta/fuschia color and it really looks excellent!!
Only drawback about this product would be aimed towards the parents of small children- if your child is extremely fidgety or curious, he or she may pull open the Velcro strap and take out the ID insert... leading to possibly losing that ID card, or the entire bracelet itself. **Sizing note:
The smallest size, "Child" says that it's meant for a wrist size up to 6 inches. This is untrue! This size is really only meant for tiny kids like toddlers and pre-k children.
I recommend the medium size, "Youth" for any Elementary and Middle School aged children. It can fit a size 4.5 inch to 6 inch wrist very nicely.
The Adult/Large size will fit wrists from 6 inches on up to 8 inches. Highly recommended for growing teenage boys with wide wrists.

Average Reviews:

I ordered the insoles as a replacement for a pair that I originally bought at a Podiatrist's office. They worked well. The surprize was that ordering them here was less that half of what I previously paid. And yes, I checked, there was both a left and a right foot insole.

Albion Chelated Vanadium 5 mg 60 Caps Review

Albion Chelated Vanadium 5 mg 60 Caps
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have several strategies going in order to stay away from taking patent prescription medicines for my diabetes. I think that this product is probably a good complement to my other vitamins/minerals/herbs.
For my diabetes I use:
Albion Chelated Vanadium 5 Mg (this product) (1 per day)
Fenugreek Seed 610 Mg (2-4 per day)
Chromium Picolinate 200 Mcg (1 per day)
Informulab's Beta Fast GXR Glucose Balance (2 per day)
Of course I have a multi-vitamin, multi-mineral, etc.
Another thing that works for my energy level is Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar and their Amino Acids.
With a decent diet and some exercise, my diabetes in under control. NO doctor pills!

Swanson Vanadium is helpful for promoting healthy carbohydrate metabolism. Classified as a trace mineral because it is needed only in small amounts, each capsule contains 5 mg of chelated vanadium from Albion, the leaders in supplemental mineral chelates. Plus, it contains our proprietary blend of ginger root, Piper longum and Piper nigrum to promote absorption. Learn more about  Albion Minerals . What Makes Chelated Mineral Glycinates So Superior?First we need to understand the chelation process. Chelation is the result of minerals becoming chemically bound to amino acids in a very specific manner. Chelation occurs naturally during the digestive process to facilitate transport of minerals across the intestinal wall so that they may be utilized throughout the body. Amino acids are not the only "chelators" available, but they are ideal for minerals. The body is very efficient at absorbing individual amino acids, and Albion has identified the amino acid glycine as the preferred molecule for creating organic chelated minerals. Glycine is readily identified and absorbed across the intestinal wall, and Albion's glycinate chelates are actually small enough to transport right into the cells themselves!
