Health gadget specialists Tanita have come up with a simple way for people with diabetes or metabolic syndrome to test themselves, thanks to this Portable Urine Glucose Meter. No needles are required or, importantly, any blood, allowing users to gain an accurate glucose level from urine alone.
The reading will be similar to blood sugar levels, taken by a enzyme electrode biosensor unit inside the cap. Once you've peed onto the sensor, you put the cap on and wait for the measurement, which should take just six seconds. This starter set includes everything you need, including a sensor cartridge and solutions.
