Being an iPhone fan & a type 1 diabetic I was quite excited when I came across this product. I have heard rumours in the past about Blood glucose iPhone accesories but have never seen them be released.

After looking at the Sanofi-Aventis iBGStar blood glucose meter for iPhone, I am really quite impressed. The blood glucose meter can connect directly to your iPhone permeneantly, or can be use seperately (as it has a battery as well). So just incase your iPhone battery dies, you will still be able to test your blood(phew!).

The app helps you keep track of blood glucose, carbohydrate intake and insulin dose. It also allows you to input your data with specific notes for personalised information.

The accompanying app is free according to Sanofi-Aventis, and it is rumoured that the device is to be priced at around $80.

I will definetly be interested in this iPhone accessory when it is released, but for now visit the dedicated website for more information.
