I did keto and had a ketone strip tester based on blood drop tests. Not urine becuase it's not as accurate. It's definitely possible if you're disciplined and follow it properly.
- eigenspace 7y agoSure blood is much more accurate than urine, but it's my understanding that the urine strips will at least tell you reliably if you're in ketosis or not. The ketone concentrations just might not have a simple mapping onto your blood ketone concentrations.
- tracker1 7y agoOnce you're further in and adapted to ketosis, you won't see urine confirmation as your body won't be producing enough excess ketones that it shows up in the urine. The body is really good at becoming efficient at doing things.
- eigenspace 7y agoReally? It was my understanding that the urine confirmation would be diminished, but almost always not completely washed out. That's good to be aware of if true though.
