These websites of diabetes can not only clarify the doubts but also support the patients’ problems. Also mobile devices help in tracking the data and send test results directly to the doctor.

This is helpful and provides relief for type 1 diabetics. An automated system used to disperse insulin based on changes in blood sugar levels. This is a wearable device acting as an artificial pancreas, the system will enable people living with type 1 diabetes to better maintain blood sugar levels within a target range with minimal effort.

High-Tech Tattoo Sensor

This is again a substitute for the finger-sticking method. This includes a sensor that changes color with rising blood sugar levels. This high-tech tattoo contains a special kind of ink that reacts with glucose and is injected into the outermost layer of skin.
