Since we’ve been dealing with COVID19 for the past 3 ½ months now, I’ve been doing a lot of my shopping online, so that I don’t have to get out and mingle with anyone. It helps with my stress level to not have to get out and about so much.
I decided that I would write a blog post about all of the awesome finds that I’ve found on Amazon, that benefit diabetics. Clicking on the images or links in the post should open the item directly in your Amazon app or account when using your mobile device or your computer.
So I’m just going to dive right in, and tell you about some of the things that I’ve personally bought for myself, as well as some other items for diabetics that I have found while browsing Amazon. If I’ve not gotten it yet, it is definitely on my wish list.
First, are glucose meters. For those who’ve been following my blog, you know I use the Dario meter. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say again, that I love my Dario glucose meter because all of my information is stored in the cloud, via the app on my phone. (Don’t worry, Dario complies by all HIPPA law requirements, so your info is safe.) Click the image below for the Amazon link.
And I love the Dario case for my meter! Click the image for the Amazon link.
They have two types of Dario cases. I have both, but I like the smaller case best. I can put it in my pocket if I’m not carrying my purse. If I travel somewhere overnight, I use the larger case. Click the image below for the larger case.
There are many other meters that you can buy on Amazon, and usually, the prices are better on Amazon than you find other places. Here are some of the others that you can get from Amazon.
There’s also the Bayer Contour Next EZ meter – click the image.
And there’s the One Touch Ultra 2 – click the image.
There’s also the Auvon DS-W – click the image.
You can check out the Easy Touch glucose monitor – click the image.
And then there’s the Prodigy Pocket glucose monitor – click the image.
And one many have heard of, the FreeStyle Lite meter – click image.
And then there are insulin coolers. There are many different kinds of insulin coolers available. Here are a few – click on the images below.
Working out is a key factor in controlling blood sugar. So finding the right tools for home workouts is really important.
ALERT! ALERT! I’ve also been told to buy a medical alert bracelet or necklace, so I’ve been looking for ones that I would like. Here are a few that I’ve found. Click image.
Yummy! There are also many kinds of foods that you can get from Amazon. Here are some of the things that I buy from Amazon, as well as some items that I plan to try.
I love everything from Diabetic Kitchen’s line. I’m adding some of my favorite products from them here, as well as other favorites that I use.
Diabetic readings and cookbooks are also plentiful on Amazon.
Vitamins and supplements are important to everyone, not just diabetics. Here are some links to ones that I’ve purchased, but not by any means the only ones.
I will continue to update and add things to this list. If a link does not work, let me know in the comments, so that I can correct it.
You can also search foods through Amazon Pantry, using this link:
And depending on where you live, you can get fresh foods through Amazon Fresh, using this link:
Also, if there’s a product that has been helpful to your diabetic journey, and you think I should try it, drop me a note in the comments section. I love trying things that help keep me on track with my diabetes.
