There are skin auto fluorescent readers out there that pretty reliably will tell us the degree of glycation in our body and the correlate is pretty well with vascular glycation or all that stuff. And they've also looked at renal function because if you have high blood sugars, that'll eventually be damaging the kidneys too. NINEOS has been shown to reduce resultant glycation damage so I'd still look at how this could work for type one diabetics.
