Toy Inventor Creates Diabetes Testing System
Randi Altschul, a New Jersey toy inventor, has developed a user friendly, non-invasive, saliva-based diagnostic “Lolli-pop” device for monitoring glucose levels in Diabetics.
The POP TEST is a credit card sized saliva-based diagnostic device for checking glucose levels in diabetics.
It works in a simple three stage process: bend out the stem, apply a small amount of saliva by licking the end and bend back the pop to compare color change against chart .
The POP TEST diagnostic lollipop platform includes testing devices for the levels of alcohol, keto, drug presence and pregnancy.

That is a really awesome idea! I love it. No more needles for the diabetics, this could prove to be a simple and quick way for people to check for drugs wether it be parents of teenagers or the local authorities, and also…that would be a much better way of testing for pregnancy.
