Creating Your Own Test Strip Company From Scratch | GoodGlucos Founder and PWD, Elliot Gatt | Real Life Diabetes Podcast 43

Imagine you’re at work. It’s 10AM. You search through your belongings for your meter, maybe you need to calibrate the CGM. But… you left the meter on your kitchen table. If you’re Elliot Gatt, you simply walk down the hallway and open up a new box of Good Glucos strips, a company he developed after years of frustration with test strip price gouging. Without insurance, they offer accurate strips at an affordable price while giving strips back to someone in need. Ever heard of anything like this? We hadn’t either, and that’s why we’re breaking down his journey, including his involvement in the Bike Beyond adventure across the US starting June 3rd.

To support the show and our sponsor, while also snagging some test strips, especially if you’re tired of buying Relions at Walmart, and questioning their accuracy (been there), follow the link below to GoodGlucos:
