Control Solution:
The control solution which is included with your kit is used to test the accuracy of your blood glucose meter and test strips. Applied to a test strip, control solution confirms that the meter's test results are in the expected range printed on the test strip vial. Control solution tests should be performed at least once a week, every time a new vial of test strips is opened, and whenever you suspect the meter or test strips may not be functioning properly. Using the control solution is also recommended for teaching or learning how to test with your OneTouch® Blood Glucose Monitoring System.

A1CA glycosylated hemoglobin A1C (called HbA1c, Hemoglobin A1C, A1 and A1C) reading reveals your average blood glucose level over the past three months and can be used to predict your risk for diabetes complications.
How does it do that? Your body actually memorizes the trail that sugar leaves in your body. When blood glucose is high, the sugar molecules attach themselves to red blood cells. The red blood cells store the sugar information for about 4 months. A blood test can then retrieve your average blood glucose results in the format of a percentage. The greater your A1C value, the higher your risk for diabetes complications.
Does an A1C take the place of daily blood glucose testing? No, knowing where your blood glucose is every day is still the easiest and most practical way to see how food, exercise and daily living are impacting your diabetes. But by comparing your daily blood glucose test results to A1c, you and your doctor can determine how well your diabetes is being controlled - and establish ways to control it even further.
Compare daily results to quarterly A1C test.
* The American Diabetes Association recommends an A1C of 7% or lower.
* Your doctor can set a target A1C level for you that can be achieved by acting on the information you get from regular, daily blood glucose testing.
* The lower your daily blood glucose test results, the better your A1C result-which means you're taking charge of your diabetes through proper diet, exercise and medication.

LATEST REVIEW: I have had my OneTouch UltraSmart for about a week now now and it is surely the best monitor I have had. I do not have the software or cable yet but am looking forward to exploring that as well. The graphs with the diet, health, and exercise logs make this an excellent way of monitoring what helps keep the numbers in a healthy range and what needs to change. I think this monitor has actually changed my mind to be healthier and more fit also now!
