For the more than 23 million people living with diabetes, blood glucose level testing is critical to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Singer/songwriter Nick Jonas has type 1 diabetes and personally checks his blood glucose levels up to 12 times a day with the CONTOUR USB® meter. He is working with Bayer Diabetes Care to remind people with diabetes to learn about the importance of blood glucose testing and what has an impact on blood sugar levels, including certain foods, types of exercise, emotions and stress levels. Testing frequently, in accordance with a doctor’s guidance, helps a person with diabetes make important choices throughout the day to stay within a target blood glucose range.

Urban centers around the globe account for over three quarters of worldwide energy consumption. That’s why the experts are working all-out on developing so-called “Metropolitan Solutions” – environmentally friendly energy supply and utility services concepts for today’s large urban centers.

Philips, the makers of Sonicare power toothbrushes and Zoom whitening, announced today the launch of a new educational campaign called Get It Right!, which encourages people to engage a dental professional in the teeth whitening process to ensure a healthy smile worthy of a great first impression. Smiling is an instinct that starts as early as one month of age and as we grow it becomes one of our most important social assets. “Smiling affects not only how someone feels, but also how others perceive that person,” said psychologist, executive coach and author Ann Demarais, Ph.D. “In fact, research suggests there are a number of benefits to smiling – from a mood enhancer to being more socially appealing.”
