I got a 2,5 mmol/L at 7pm roughly 30 minutes after dinner. According to Phinney and Volek, that means I am at the upper range of nutritional ketosis, ranging from 0.5 to 3.0.
Question 1: Can conclude from that I’m in deep ketosis?
Question 2: I am feeling quite well and get consistent energy levels throughout the day, although my hunger has been upregulated by the ketogenic diet. Does this give any hint or method or extrapolation that my body uses the ketones effectively? I still spill plenty of ketones through my urine, 3 months into strict keto.
Question 3: Relating to question 2, am I fully keto adapted or is this process ongoing for months or even years as PHinney and Volek point out when they look at athletes?
