American Diabetes Services to offer a free OneTouch Ultra 2 Glucose Meter to eligible diabetics.

Boca Raton, Florida, June 22, 2006 - According to the American Diabetes Association, nearly 9 out of 10 people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes are overweight, indicating that new diabetics should be monitoring both their type 2 diabetes and nutrition habits. The revolutionary new OneTouch Ultra 2 Meter introduced by LifeScan, a Johnson and Johnson company, will let diabetics monitor their blood sugar levels before and after meals with just a spec of blood to help manage type 2 diabetes and nutrition.

The new OneTouch Ultra 2 meter takes diabetic monitoring to the next level, allowing diabetics to monitor their blood glucose before and after their meals, so that they're aware how their nutrition habits affect their type 2 diabetes. Over time, this new glucose meter averages together type 2 diabetes and nutrition testing results to let diabetics know how their dietary choices are affecting their diabetes.

"Lifescan's OneTouch Ultra 2 Meter will revolutionize how diabetics monitor type 2 diabetes and nutrition," states Lorne Yaffe Vice-President of American Diabetes Services, "That's why we're offering a free OneTouch Ultra Meter to all eligible diabetics."

OneTouch Ultra 2 Meter is gentle, needing only a speck of blood from your finger. The glucose meter provides your type 2 diabetes testing results in 5 seconds. A simple two-way scrolling buttons and new backlight feature makes the OneTouch Ultra 2 Meter easy to read and operate.

As a bonus, this new glucose meter comes with the Simple Start(tm) DVD and booklet to help diabetics with type 2 diabetes and nutrition. This educational pamphlet explains the basics of diabetic monitoring, how to control your type 2 diabetes through carbohydrate management and understanding how nutrition choices affect type 2 diabetes.
