Product Description
What are Ketones? Ketones are chemicals that are produced in the liver when there is not enough sugar (glucose) to use as energy or insulin to convert that sugar into energy. Instead, stored fat is converted into ketones & used to carry energy to muscles & vital organs through the bloodstream and spill into the urine. Importance of Testing Ketones for Diabetics: High level of ketones can result from diabetics taking too little insulin which can lead to a dangerous condition known as ketoacidosis. Testing for ketones can prevent ketoacidosis by early detection. Importance of Testing Ketones for Low-Carb Dieters: If the carbohydrate intake was restricted to approximately 30 grams per day, there will not be enough sugar for the body to convert into energy (known as ketosis). The body will instead start to burn fat to supply itself with the energy it needs to survive. Testing for ketones will let the dieter know when his body has entered ketosis & the fat burning has begun. Measuring Ketones: Urinalysis ketone testing kit is by far the most quick, easy & cost-effective way to measure ketones. When a ketone strip is exposed to urine, the pad on the stick will change color if ketones are present, the severity of the color change will indicate the approx. concentration of ketones in the blood.
