Merck has released its own diabetes manager app for the iPhone platform. It features glucose, activity, nutrition and medication trackers, and progress charts to help keep a healthy regimen.
Vree for Diabetes is a comprehensive set of easy-to-use tools developed to help people with type 2 diabetes track their blood sugar, medications, nutritional intake and activity level, with helpful features such as progress charts and live reminders. Unlike other health applications, Vree for Diabetes allows patients to conveniently store a wide variety of data in one place with 24-hour, on-the-go accessibility. The application can help people reach weight loss goals by offering lessons on advanced nutrition and exercise strategies, as well as diabetes basics, becoming more active and eating a healthier diet. It also has a tool people with diabetes can use to create reports, email and discuss them with their physician, diabetes educator or other healthcare providers.
The Vree for Diabetes nutrition tracker offers improved functionality allowing people to track food, exercise and activity throughout the day. Beverages, such as coffee, and meals, including salads and sandwiches can be built, personalized and saved for future use on the system to make it easy to measure specific food preferences, down to what kind of cheese you like on your sandwich.
