Approximately 50% of them are still undiagnosed. People with diabetes have an increased risk of developing a number of serious health problems leading to death and disability. For example, in the United States, diabetes causes more deaths a year than breast cancer and AIDS combined. Other common complications of diabetes may lead to blindness, kidney failure, and leg amputation. Early detection and proper management of the disease may help to prevent or delay the disease and its associated complications. 'Frequent body glucose monitoring, together with healthy lifestyle, for example diet control and exercise, may be the best medicine in preventing or treating pre- or early stage diabetes.' - Dr. Patrick LEUNG, Chief Scientist, eNano Health Limited Daily High Glucose Monitoring Doctors often recommend diabetic patients to test their blood sugar several times a day at home. Current home-based blood glucose testing systems require finger pricking in order to draw blood for the test. Even though the finger pricking is “almost painless”, only a limited percentage of the patients are compliant with the recommendation. Performing the test multiple times a day can still be painful, time consuming, can cause calluses and sensitive fingers, and is difficult if you have visual or dexterity limitations. The safety concern with breaking the skin barrier also makes the current product not desirable for wellness screening use at home, schools or corporations. ‘Kiss & Tell’ is our award winning product that tests for high blood glucose levels using saliva instead of blood. Due to the non-invasive and painless nature of using saliva to test for blood glucose levels, users are more receptive to performing the tests multiple times a day. As a result, users can personally become more aware of how diet, exercise, stress, or other lifestyle choices may affect their glucose health levels, thus encouraging them to adopt a healthier lifestyle that is best suited for them. The product is ideal for Type II diabetic patients to monitor their high glucose conditions. Gestational Diabetes Some women became diabetic during their pregnancy. Once diagnosed, the mother-to-be needs to monitor her glucose level multiple times a day during her term of pregnancy. She may adjust her lifestyle or even take medications to maintain her glucose at healthy levels. Many of the gestational diabetic patients are not used to the blood or pain of finger pricking. Some may be concerned with the risk of breaking their skin barrier when conducting the tests. 'Kiss & Tell' offers these patients a choice alternative by using saliva instead of blood to monitor their high glucose levels. Pre-diabetic or Undiagnosed Screening Diabetes is sometimes called the “silent killer” because often there is no obvious symptom. While overweight or age may increase the risk of diabetes, many Type II diabetic patients are at normal weight and diagnosed as early as at their 30’s. Approximately one in two diabetic patients is unaware of the disease. There are two to four-fold more people that are pre-diabetic. Pre-diabetic people have high blood sugar level, but not high enough to be classified as Type II diabetes. Although it may take years for the progression of pre-diabetic to diabetic, the long term damage of diabetes to the heart or other systems may have already started. Most of these risks can be prevented or minimized with early detection, and a combination of healthy diet, regular physical activity, maintaining a normal body weight, and avoiding tobacco use. ‘Kiss & Tell’ offers a simple, safe solution for individuals to perform diabetic risk prescreening on a regular basis to monitor for the potential or gradual onset of high glucose disorders. Frequently Asked Question What is the correlation between saliva glucose and blood glucose? 1) Saliva glucose concentration is highly correlated with blood, especially when the glucose level is above normal. Such Product Specifications correlation has been studied in the past 30 years and published in multiple international academic publications. In our *********************************************** laboratory, we have also tested such correlation ourselves. 2) The change of glucose levels due to diet or exercise is Detection Limit reflected in saliva, in a pattern similar to blood. The key differences are that there may be a time lag between the saliva 95 to 300uM of salivary glucose and blood and the absolute amount of glucose is much smaller in saliva than blood. Saliva is “fresher” than urine, easier *********************************************** to get than tears or sweat. Interference Fructose (100 mg/dL); Is 'Kiss & Tell' accurate in measuring blood glucose? Galactose (5 mg/dL); 'Kiss & Tell' has been tested with thousands of samples in the laboratory and with people. It has demonstrated high Lactose (10 mg/dL); percentage of accuracy in the detection of normal to high glucose levels. Kiss & Tell is not suitable for testing glucose Maltose (120 mg/dL); levels below normal. Therefore it is not intended for Type I diabetic patients or patients using insulin. Sucrose (20 mg/dL); We have also tested to show other types of sugars (non-glucose) do not interfere with the test results unless the Vitamin C (6 mg/dL); concentration is exceptionally higher than the normal physiological levels. Please refer to the Interference table on the Xylose (30 mg/dL) left. *********************************************** Storage Can 'Kiss & Tell' be used to diagnose diabetes? Keep in a cool and dry place. Do not Home-based blood glucose monitoring (e.g., Kiss & Tell or any other finger pricking blood glucose monitors) are place the strip in excessive heat. intended for health screening or routine monitoring to increase the self-health awareness of the users. It allows an Use the strip immediately (within 1 individual to better understand the relative changes within his/her body. It is not meant for disease diagnosis. A person’s hour) after removing from the blood glucose level goes up and down all day. The blood glucose test will only show the result of the glucose level at protective pouch. that one point in time. For example, if you prick two different fingers at the same time, the results may vary too. That is why physicians encourage patients to test multiple times a day to get a better estimation of the glucose levels of the *********************************************** patient. For clinical valuation, physicians usually use another laboratory test called hemoglobin A1c to support the CONTACT US: prognosis of the patient. Hemoglobin A1c represents the average blood glucose levels over the last three months. Telephone: (Hong Kong) +852 2210-5022 When will be the best time to test body glucose using 'Kiss & Tell'? (US) +1 (626) 821-0030 For type II diabetic or gestational diabetic patients, we recommend testing 7 times a day, similar to the doctor’s Email to [email protected] recommendation. When this is done consistently on a daily basis, the results will be able to generate an average number which is an index that may be a closer estimate of the hemoglobin a1c number. ABOUT COMPANY For health management or screening purpose, we recommend the user to test once or twice every day. Our suggestion Address Unit 333, is to test two hours after dinner. If the result is high, engage in some exercise that evening to consume the extra glucose Building 16W, before going to bed. No. 16 Science Park West Website Avenue, If I drink water prior to 'Kiss & Tell' test, will this affect the precision of the test? Hong Kong Science Park, Drinking plain water will not affect the performance of 'Kiss & Tell'. In fact, if the user does not have enough saliva in the Shatin, N.T., Hong Kong mouth, the user should drink some water; wait for a few minutes for the “new” saliva to replenish naturally before using www.enanohealth.com the test. What should I do if I see a pink color after the test? The test strip shows a pink color in 5 minutes after the test when the glucose concentration in the saliva sample is higher than normal. The higher the glucose level, the darker will the pink color be. If the results show a dark pink color on the strip and if the user just has had food or sweet drink taken in the last two hours, the positive result is probably due to the food or drink. If the test is taken at least two hours after meals or before breakfast and the result shows a pink color, we suggest the user to re-test his / her saliva glucose again later (2 hours after another meal). If the results are consistent, the user should contact his / her physician for medical consultation. The user could also consider making changes to their lifestyle (e.g., exercise and reduced carbohydrates or sweets) and continue to use Kiss & Tell to closely monitor his/her glucose levels.
