JACKSONVILLE, Florida--(Business Wire)--BodyTel Scientific Inc. (OTCBB: BDYT), a developer of wireless
telemedical devices, announces today that it has, through its wholly
owned subsidiary BodyTel Europe GmbH, entered into an international
distribution agreement with FourMed Medical Supplies, a well known
distributor of medical supplies in the Middle east. Beginning in the
first quarter of 2008, BodyTel's new partner, FourMed Medical Supplies
(www.fourmed.com ), intends to begin offering BodyTel's blood glucose
monitoring and diabetes management system, GlucoTel(TM), as well as
the PressureTel(TM) blood pressure device and the WeightTel(TM) weight
scale, once available, in eight Arabian countries, with the United
Arab Emirates as its core market (the "Territory"). Pursuant to the
terms of the distribution agreement BodyTel granted FourMed the right
to exclusively market the products of BodyTel in the Territory for a
term of one year. FourMed is also responsible for all distribution,
compliance and marketing costs relating to the sale of the products in
the Territory.

   "FourMed has excellent know-how in the targeted markets, as well
as extensive experience in selling diabetes products. We're convinced
that our new partner will play a key role for BodyTel in the coverage
of the entire Arabian market," said Michael Berrendorf, Sales Director
EMEA of BodyTel.

   "FourMed Medical Supplies is extremely happy and proud of the
opportunity to introduce BodyTel's products which will help our
patients and medical professionals in their quest for better diabetes
management. This innovative blood glucose monitoring and diabetes
management system will add great value to our region as it has one of
the world's highest incident rate of diabetes. With our understanding
and long term experience, we want to be the leading provider of
BodyTel's telemedical products in the entire Arabian area," said
Mutasem Al Titi, CEO of FourMed.

   Stefan Schraps, BodyTel's CEO, agreed, saying, "Our products,
together with FourMed's impressive sales capabilities, have the
potential to become the standard throughout the entire Middle East.
We're delighted with this new partnership."

   BodyTel's first market-ready product is the GlucoTel(TM) blood
glucose meter. It is part of the GlucoTel(TM) system, a complete
telemedical blood glucose monitoring and diabetes management system,
supporting patients and doctors in the treatment of diabetes and its
corollary diseases. GlucoTel(TM) electronically measures the blood
sugar level and then sends it via Bluetooth to the patient's cell
phone. After that, the data is automatically transmitted to an online
database via internet connection and stored on a long-term basis. To
facilitate better diabetes management, the patient and any authorized
persons, e.g. healthcare professionals or caregivers, can access the
data via internet at any time using a secure login.
