Diabetes places a major burden on global healthcare systems, of all diagnosed cases, 95% are type 2, of which a significant amount could have been prevented. This research demonstrates the feasibility of non-invasive blood sugar monitoring in a smartwatch-style device, helping individuals understand how their bodies respond to food. By raising awareness of diet-related impacts through technology, it encourages healthier habits and early intervention. This device can reduce the prevalence of metabolic conditions and ease pressure on healthcare systems through improved prevention and self-management in a practical form factor.
