Basic Info
Model No.: Ketone test strips
Product Description
Product Description
Urine ketone results change if you stay on a keto diet for several weeks because your metabolism changes.
During prolonged starvation, the body undergoes a profound shift from running mostly on glucose to reliance on fat-based fuel sources: ketones and fatty acids. The ketogenic diet mimics this [keto-adapted" metabolism of starvation. In the first few days on a ketogenic diet, you begin producing ketones, some of which are excreted in the urine.
Color changes on your urine ketone strips show that you are in ketosis (if not, you may need to make some adjustments in order to get into ketosis, e.g. further reduce intake of carbohydrates, increase fat intake, exercise more, fast, or take exogenous ketones).
As you continue on the diet, you become more adapted or accustomed to making and burning ketones. More ketones are reabsorbed and used for energy, and fewer ketones overflow into the urine.After several weeks, as ketone levels rise, evidence suggests your muscles shift to burning fatty acids directly while burning fewer ketones. In this way, ketones are spared for use by other tissues, particularly the brain (which does not burn fatty acids for fuel).
Reaction principle
The acetoactate and nitroprusside cause reaction in alkaline medium,which produces purplish red compounds.
What do my results mean after testing by ketone urine test strips?
You can measure ketones at any time of the day.However, ketone levels tend to vary,being highest in the morning and right after dinner.It is also best to avoid measuring your ketone levels right after exercise because the numbers you would get then won`t represent your mean ketone levels.Being dehydrated,over-hydrated,and taking certain medication(Mesna) can lead to inaccurate results,especially with urine ketone strips.
While individual testing may vary, in general,results for ketone testing are labeled in the following way:
normal/negative | less than 0.5 millionles per liter(mmol/L) |
low to moderate | 0.6 to 1.5 mmol/L |
high | 1.6 to 4.0 mmol/L |
very high | greater than 4.0 mmol/L |
