Keto Strips mg/dl


(Rsahadi1975) #1

Just wanted to get some advice about my keto levels. I’m a newbie and just bought some keto strips that measure in mg/dl. My first reading was 40 (which the box says is moderate). Does that sound about right? I am not wanting to lose weight. I want to stay on the keto diet for at least 6 months to a year for health reasons.

Pee Strips are good to tell you if you’re producing ketones. In terms of determining how far you’re in ketosis, it’s not a good indicator. This is because the reading can change depending on how hydrated you are. If you’re looking for a precise reading, you’ll need to use one of those blood monitors and get the ketone strips.

But, sounds like you’re in ketosis, keep it up!
