ABSTRACT:
A non-invasive glucose monitoring device includes a mechanism for stimulating salivary glands secretion of saliva into oral fluid prior to collecting a sample of the oral fluid. A mechanism is provided for detecting the amount of glucose in the sample, a mechanism also being provided for quantitating blood glucose level based on the amount of glucose detected. A method of non-invasively monitoring glucose includes the steps of stimulating salivary glands secretion of saliva into oral fluid, collecting a sample of the oral fluid, detecting an amount of glucose in the sample, and then quantitating the blood glucose level based on the amount of glucose detected.
