Adding Meal and Event tags :
- Your OneTouch Verio Reflect® Meter allows you to attach a Before Meal (
) or After Meal (
) tag to your current blood glucose result. It is important to understand the link between blood glucose levels and food. When you tag your test results with Meal tags, you add information about food to your results. Your meter uses this information in a variety of ways and displays Pattern Messages, Mentor Tips and Awards. Talk to your healthcare professional to see how Meal tags may help you manage your diabetes. Consider the following guidelines when Meal tagging.
- A Before Meal blood glucose test is taken just before the start of your meal.
- An After Meal blood glucose test is typically taken one to two hours after the start of your meal.
- A blood glucose test taken while fasting should be tagged as Before Meal.
- In addition to Meal tagging, your OneTouch Verio Reflect® Meter includes an Event tagging feature. Event tagging adds information about your health and lifestyle events to your blood glucose results. Your meter will review your past results and display Messages associated with tagged results when certain conditions are met.
