Hay Everyone, has anybody tried the Frio cooling wallets. I must say how effective they are, especially when I went to Tenerife last summer on holiday. I had only been told I had diabetes a few weeks before traveling but this did not hold me back. I consulted my GP and she advised me to buy a Frio wallet to keep my insulin cool until I got to the fridge in the hotel. To my utter disbelief there was neither fridge nor fridge available in the hotel to store my insulin. Luckily I bought the Frio only intending its use for the transfer to the hotel, but it kept my insulin cool for the whole of my holiday.
By the way I purchased the Frio from www.friouk.com they also have a new forum.
I must add that not many people know that insulin degrades if it is exposed to temperatures higher than 30 degrees C.
Two words to describe a Frio ‘Life Saver’.
