Thanks for the reply. I bought a a1c test Now, and then had my blood drawn. It varied by a lot. Perhaps I might have done something wrong then, if you say they're accurate...

The a1c test kits that are available are not so accurate. It would be great if there was home tests, especially for those who control their D2 via diet. Wouldn't diabetics benefit from that? I see no future devices being planned?

Ok thanks everyone!

Well done, that's amazing!

I'm lazy and tired, and want a non-invasive glucose meter now! No but seriously, I would really appreciate something accurate and convenient, like a wrist-watch. It would be of so much help. But they will be coming soon I hope!

Thanks for the responses. I found several eggwhite protein powder with almost no carbs. And this study suggests Metabolic response to cottage cheese or egg white protein, with or without glucose, in type II diabetic subjects M C Gannon et al. Metabolism. 1992 Oct. the insulin response to...

Is egg protein powder and collagen good?
