A few months ago I got a letter that was from Virat health but also through my health insurance. I wasn’t sure if it was legitimate but when I inquired further through the insurance website and also talking with my doctor I decided to check into it. The program is a nutrition and medical program for members with type II diabetes. I’ve been managing things pretty well for a while now but I figure anything else may help so I joined up. Turns out that the program actually supplies me with lots of things to help with diabetes including test strip and a new glucose monitor.; I still use the Dexcom for constant monitoring but will also do single checks with the glucose and ketone monitor. This is connected to an app where I am connected to my care team. They also supplied me with a scale and a food scale and some samples of an electrolyte drink. There is also a nutrition guide and recipe book. I get started with this in earnest on Tuesday.
