    A useful, easy test to track your ketone level.

    I am on a keto diet so tracking my ketone level is important to me. It is very easy to use. You can either place it into a container of fresh urine or just urinate on the strip over the toilet. Wait 15 seconds and compare it to the chart on the side of the bottle where it reveals your ketone level. Make sure your time it for 15 seconds because if you wait longer than that the color will continue to darken. I test the same time each day twice a week and it gives me a guide about how good I have been avoiding carbohydrates. I did notice that when I tested on the day after I had a couple of pieces of pizza the ketone level was lower. So it does work.

    I bought this on the high reviews that i had seen. It seemed like this brand was more accurate than most other ones so i spent the extra money for that peace of mind. I got that peace of mind. Can't tell how accurate the reading are but i trust this brand.
