Diabetes blood sugar test

Health Check Shop Expert Review

Diabetes is one of the world's most prevalent illnesses. Early diagnosis with our quick and easy-to-use blood sugar test can help prevent future complications.

How does the test work?

Prick your finger quickly and easily with the sterile finger pricker supplied to obtain a drop of blood. Place the drop of blood on the test strip and wait for 30 seconds. Match the colour on the test strip with the printed disc and simply read off your blood glucose level.

What does the result mean?

If your blood glucose level is between 72 mg/dl (4 mmol/l) and 108 mg/dl (6 mmol/l) you are within the normal limits. If you are well below or above the normal limits you should consult your doctor.

In the long-term, high levels of glucose in the blood can cause damage to the blood vessels in your body. It can lead to impaired eyesight, kidney failure, nerve damage, erectile dysfunction and poor wound healing capability. What's more, there is a significantly higher risk of cardiac arrest and strokes.

The risk of developing diabetes is significantly higher if any of your close relatives (parents, brothers or sisters) already have diabetes. Severe thirst, frequent need to urinate and unexplained weight loss are some of the symptoms of diabetes. Other symptoms include tiring easily and blurred vision. Obesity and lack of physical activity also increase the risk of developing diabetes.
