A freestyle glucose meter offers a major benefit of monitoring diabetes without having to worry about coding. When managing diabetes, using a freestyle glucose meter is a great way to make life easier. Western Diabetic is committed to making life easier for diabetics by offering a freestyle glucose meter for anyone with diabetes.

Freestyle glucose meter - basics

There are several types of diabetic monitoring products. One of the best, the freestyle glucose meter, requires NO coding, taking some of the work out of managing diabetes. A freestyle glucose meter doesn’t require large blood samples yet offers very accurate results. The freestyle glucose meter is non invasive and less painful than some other products. The freestyle glucose meter is smaller than other similar products, which allow a diabetic to discreetly test their blood.

Freestyle Glucose Meter - Alternate Test Sites

A freestyle glucose meter is beneficial because it allows the diabetic patient to utilize alternate test sites other than the fingertip, which has traditionally been required. The freestyle glucose meter allows testing on the thighs, hands, forearms, calves, and upper arms. These sites are much less painful than the fingertips, so the freestyle glucose meter offers this benefit to the diabetic patient who is looking for a less painful alternative to fingertip testing.

Freestyle Glucose Meter - Features

The freestyle glucose meter has an optimum display area of 19mm x 24mm. The numbers are displayed in a large 10mm x 17mm area. The freestyle glucose meter is a great meter for the diabetic patient who requires large displays. To make it even more useful, the freestyle glucose meter offers a backlight so the diabetic patient can test in low lighting.

Freestyle Glucose Meter - Alarms

The freestyle glucose meter has several alarms to help the diabetic patient to manage their diabetes. There are at least four reminder alarms that can be programmed for daily reminders in the freestyle glucose meter. The diabetic patient may set the settings to low or high, depending on their needs, or the freestyle glucose meter can be turned off if necessary.

Freestyle Glucose Meter - Monitoring Lancets

The freestyle glucose meter lancets can be used in conjunction with the meter for wonderful results. The lancets offer many benefits, such as thin gauge steel for comfort, as well as being sterilized already. The lancets can be purchased separately from the freestyle glucose meter if needed. The monitoring lancets are an additional benefit to the benefits mentioned above for the freestyle glucose meter.
