MEET JOHN
FAMILY MAN WITH AN EDGE
John pushed the limits on all his activities for as long as he could remember: extreme sports, travelling the world for work, and always making family his first priority — including coaching his daughter in skydiving. He never let type 1 diabetes hold him back.
As he grew older, John started to think more about diabetes’ long-term complications and his family’s concern about his glucose levels dropping too low at night — especially when he was travelling.
A LEGENDARY ENCOUNTER
John refused to put his life on hold. He put all his energy into exploring ways to help keep his glucose levels in range. Then he discovered that the MiniMed 670G system with SmartGuard™ hybrid closed loop technology automatically adjusts2 insulin delivery to help keep his glucose levels in check. He knew this could decrease the chance of dangerous highs and lows holding him or his family back1.
GOING THE DISTANCE, SAFELY
With new information to optimize his glucose levels when he travels for work, John has become the confident traveller he always wanted to be. His wife sleeps better now, knowing that SmartGuard Auto Mode helps to stabilize his glucose levels automatically.2
Doctors told me to take it easy. I don’t know what that means.
