Watching Dr. Jeff Volek video


(Denise) #1

called "Human Responses to Nutritional Ketosis and it’s making me want to find a way I can afford to see what my ketone levels are.

I think I’ve heard people here talk about testing their ketone levels :grin: I can’t believe how I just come upon these videos and they are sooo enlightening. Of course if I share them with anyone not on low carb I don’t hear a word back on what I sent.

I have never checked mine. I just assume since I am eating right, I’m good.


(You've tried everything else; why not try bacon?) #3

Do you think a Keto Mojo meter might be affordable? If not, there has been plenty of discussion on the forums of less-expensive ways to test ketones. A little searching ought to turn up some good information.

I’ll definitely check it out and I just think it would be fun to know more about the whole science about it how it works I hate knitting I hate sewing I don’t like all those in a hobbies I’m not artsy I don’t have any singing talent but I love getting into the things that I am interested in and how the body works and fighting off disease is a big one for me especially since I found the ketogenic diet I love it and there are so many things that have changed for the better for me even though I get on here and gripe about one thing or another haha thank you Paul and I really like Dr volick I had not listened to him before and I’m sure he’s one that you’ve mentioned I’ve listened to Dr Finney I like him too so we really got a bunch of really good people working on helping this obesity epidemic they’re working specifically on diabetes right now that’s what Dr volick said but they’ll Branch out into other directions as well

I used a cheap breathalyzer to get some idea of my levels - cost maybe $15. I think the cheap ones see acetone and alcohol as the same substance. It worked, and the number would go up the longer I fasted, but I doubt it was precise. And obviously it’s completely off if you drink any alcohol.
