A Shot in the Arm offers practical diabetes management advice, and humor, every day to America’s diabetics via your iPhone or iPad — perfectly timed to help you learn more and feel better, one day at a time.

Benefits:
--The care pointers come at exactly the right time. You check your phone one morning, you read a new idea to help you control your diabetes, you try it that day, it works — and all of a sudden, it’s not a diabetes management tip from a book or a website, or, worst case, your Mom. It’s part of your life.

--The care tips alternate with anecdotes and jokes from some of America’s best comics — which help you look forward to each day’s message and motivate you to keep opening them.

--Two examples of care tips and humor you’ll get EVERY DAY:

• A good rule of thumb for handling an insulin reaction: If your blood glucose shows you’re below 80, treat it with fast-acting carbohydrates — not a cookie or fruit.

• Quote of the day from Bruce Streibel: “Whoever said ‘No man is an island’ has never seen my stomach in the bath tub.”

--Other features:

• Once you read each day’s tip (or joke), you have the option of storing it or sharing it.

• The care tips come from a variety of sources including the Centers for Disease Control, the National Institutes of Health, and current research.

• The tips also include anecdotes from type 1 and type 2 diabetics who’ve spent years learning to manage the disease.

• Users are invited to share your own care management tips — and if they’re used in next year’s app, you’ll get a free copy.

• The tips are timed to help you at specific times of the year: You’ll get advice on trick-or-treating before Halloween and advice on pigging out, or not, before Thanksgiving.

--Some advance reviews:

• One non-diabetic: “It kind of makes me wish I had the disease.”

• A type 1 diabetic who’s had the disease about five years: “I want one of these!”

• A type 1 diabetic who’s had diabetes for 37 years: “It’s a good way of presenting information I need. It’s probably really helpful for people who are in a hurry. The key to the calendar is its humor; it gives you good advice without the pompousness of a doctor in a white lab coat.”

A full year of A Shot in the Arm is available now for $2.99 — less than a cent a day
