Interestingly, I know someone who's the chief scientist for a company that has developed a non-invasive blood glucose meter. It measures the glucose content from earlobe.

Looking at that page, the funny part is that someone decided to use the marketing term "cutting edge" for a technology that specifically does not cut your ear to measure blood glucose...
- cperciva 12y agoConsidering the name "Optical Bridge technology", I'm guessing this is yet another company trying to use the slightly different absorption curves for water vs. water-with-dissolved-glucose? This is not a new idea; I've seen lots of companies try this and fail because they (a) weren't accurate enough, (b) needed frequent recalibration, (c) were thrown off by exercise, dehydration, or common medicines, or (d) all of the above. I'd love to see such a product become available, but I've learned not to hold my breath.
