TRUEresult® Blood Glucose Meter Kit - 1/Each (1/Kit)
We scour the planet for glucose-mearuring sytems that are affordable and accurate. Positive reports from LivingtheCRWay members convinced us to try TRUEresult, and we are glad we did. As of August 17, 2015, the tests we have done with TRUEresult indicate that it is accurate and easy to use.
Here is what the manufacturer says:
"Our most advanced system, TRUEresult delivers nothing less than outstanding performance. TRUEresult requires NO CODING and a tiny blood sample. It provides fast results in as little as 4 seconds, and it's very easy to use. Its ease and convenience make it the ideal meter for the moderate-to-frequent tester with an active, on-the-go lifestyle. For Use with TRUEtest test strips [the least expensive that LivingTheCRWay has found!]."
We compared the accuracy of the TRUEresult to the Free Style Lite, the blood glucose meter we use now. Paul McGlothin, President of LivingTheCRWay, tested his left forearm and drew enough blood to use both test strips on the same spot.
Here are the results (mg/dL):
Freestyle Lite TRUEresult
Day1 71 71
Day 2 72 75
Day 3 69 69
Day 4 72 73
Day 5 74 74
As far as we are concerned, there is no difference in the accuracy of these two blood glucose meters.
However, there is a huge difference in price of the test strips. When you click through to Amazon, you can purchase 100 TRUEresult testing strips for $17.00. The Free Style Lite sells for almost 4 times as much at a whopping $66.99!
As far as we are concerned, there is no reason to purchase the more expensive brand. We are switching to TRUEresult.
