TL;DR

The FDA warns against using smart watches or rings that claim to measure blood glucose levels non-invasively, as these devices can lead to errors in diabetes management. No such device has been authorized by the FDA, and patients are advised to avoid unauthorized blood glucose measuring products. While companies like Apple are rumored to be working on non-invasive blood glucose monitoring technology, there is currently no proven and approved method on the market.
