It’s no secret that diabetes devices have made substantial gains over the years – we've evolved from fumbling with blood glucose meters that are bigger than a brick to using meters and pumps the size of a BlackBerry. But you know it’s the age of technology when we've also developed the ability to electronically count carbs, stay on top of our "meal plans," and track what we eat.

Cue "GoMeals," sanofi-aventis U.S.' new "app" for the iPhone (or iPod Touch). The diaTribe team had the chance to check out GoMeals, which adds the food you eat to a virtual plate to count calories and approximate percentages of your daily totals of carbs, protein, and fats. Yes, carbs – some valuable electronic help is here at last! And boy did we find it to be most excellent help and something that made our lives both easier and more fun.
