Why Apple And Google Are Working On Diabetes Tech

Apple and Alphabet are moving into the health care. Both companies have been rumored to be working on non-invasive ways to check blood glucose levels but never bought anything to market. Now, both tech giants are collaborating with medical device company Dexcom, a maker of continuous glucose monitors for people with diabetes. CNBC got an inside look at the innovation behind Dexcom’s latest CGM and its manufacturing process to better understand why two of the world’s biggest tech companies are partnering with it.

    I am type 2 and recently got a Dexcom on Medicare. It integrates well with apple iPhone and I watch when connected to the iPhone. It generates a sugar reading every 5 minutes. This really helps you see what impact what you eat and how medications impact blood sugar. I know this is an old video but I am impressed with the system. Getting the cost down would be a great thing to do as it is very costly.

    I hope Big Tech stays far away from Diabetes care. It's like trusting rats with cheese. Look at Big Pharma they are currently leeching off the misery of others and will continue to do so until the whole population will be at their mercy. Just look at their track record.

    So true that Dr Ogoh on YouTube cures Diabetic completely. My friends and I are living testimony to his Herbal Medication after taking the Medication. Reach out to him if infected by the sickness . He deserves a great respect ✊

    Total invasion of medical privacy! I don't need Google or Apple knowing my A1C.

    They're working on diabetes tech because it will earn them billions of dollars. THE END

    It doesn't matter if you follow or ignore "government guidelines" for "proper nutrition", it all turns out the same way: Type 2 Diabetes with obesity, high blood pressure and addiction to carbs. GET OFF THE SUGAR & CARBS, PEOPLE!! The US government works hand-in-hand with the FDA and the drug companies and they ALL are in it for the money. HELLO?!?!?!?

    I used to think having Type 2 Diabetes disease was the end of life for me but all that change when I came across Dr IGUDIA on YouTube who gave me his natural herbs medication which I used in curing my type 2 Diabetes disease permanently. And I will also advise everyone who is going through any difficulties in health issues to contact him on any kind of diseases.

    The future of health care is expensive depending on your insurance.

    Big thanks and appreciation to Dr IGUDIA on YouTube who cured my Type 2 Diabetes with his natural herbs medication which I order from him. His natural herbs medication are indeed very effective in curing Type 2 Diabetes permanently. And I also encourage anyone who is going through any difficulties in health to contact him on any kind of diseases Such as Hepatitis B, HPV, Cancer, HIV, STI, Diabetes, Fibroid, Yeast infection and many more. You can contact him on his YouTube channel

    When apple makes an insulin pump themselves, it will mean that the pump itself will cost 4000 dollars, then they will modify the battery you can only but on their website and the avg cost will be 50 dollars per batter for a month. And the sets you need to use for it will most likely cost 20 bucks for an infusion at least. Great

    I really can’t stop thanking Dr IGUDIA on YouTube who cured my Diabetes disease with his natural herbs medication.
    I feel so great again living a more comfortable life being free from Diabetes disease permanently

    Dexcom is overpriced. It's out of the reach for most people.
