I wanted to start keeping an eye on my Blood Glucose levels as part of my overall health agenda.
Things to keep in mind about the meter.
- Measures "Whole Blood" and not Plasma. Whole blood readings are not the same as you would get from a lab (this is oder tech). The "plasma" reading will run about 5-15% higher.
- Meter does not come with test strips -
- Test strips are "coded". This mean you need to scan the bottle (25 sticks per bottle) and they will expire in 90 days.
