Best part: Remains for home blood testig the tip of your fingers. You are getting capillary blood which is were your arterial blood(oxigenated) and venous( in route to be oxigenated) blood come toghether, so yuo get an overall picture of blood sugar in yor circulation.

Any part: The finger is normally used because it is easy, but anywhere you can stab and get blood will work.
