Are brown sugar healthier options for patients with diabetes?

Nice video, I am using the FreeStyle Libre Pro sensor with Ambrosia BluCon device in India. I get glucose readings on my phone and watch every time. Also, their Linkblucon app tracks how exercise, food, insulin impacts my blood glucose values. BluCon helps me a lot with my diabetes.
i don't get it….does this product exist? link not working, github repo "unavailable due to DMCA takedown"…..
i heard that the diabox should work directly with the freestyle libre 2 sensor if needed, without the bubble, but i can't actually find the app. did Abbott take you down ?
does this work with the US libre 2??
Hi, is there a guide to sync libreview up with diabox?
Please update the link trying to buy. Did the product change shape?
Do you know if this device is covered by insurance or Medicare
Nice video, I was scanning my sensor before with reader. For the last few months, I have been using Nightrider cgm with my Libre which helps me to monitor glucose readings on phone screen without needing to scan. it's great!
I’d love to try this product. The price point is a bit outside my budgetary limits currently though. It’s a challenge to keep a steady stream of libre sensors coming at 75 bucks a pop. I’m sure in the not too distant future I can conjure the green backs. Thank you for bringing this to market here in the US. I’m in central Arkansas. I’ll talk to my PCP about this and link him to this video for you.
Thanks for all this useful information
