I repeat thes blood glucose smart watches from China are currently DANGEROUS for diabetics if relied upon for treatment decisions.

If you treat it as a novelty it can be okay for a nondiabetic.

@A DiabetesTeam Member, and all you warriors.

They are sending out hype to garner investors. The technology is not there yet. They spin there own news articles.

According to the European diabetes tech conference, recently completed, the technology is several years away.

Keep praying.
Maybe a scientist will have an epiphany and bring one to the market sooner.

Read the scientific journals.
Don't just believe the media hype.

They aren't even close to accurate. If you tried to make treatment decisions from them, you could die.
