3....So are you planning to run a particular ketone level, 3 for example, ?
They're expensive. More accurate than breath or pee strips. I'll probably run both blood and pee strips to see if they're correlated. If they track well I'll mainly use the cheaper strips. . The meter also can be used for glucose, but I already have one with over a hundred test stripsPS they are expensive in test strip costs.
In what way is it bad?You don't want to be in ketosis for a long period. It's quite damaging to your organs long term. My son has to keep his as close to zero. Much more than 0.5 then he has to take action.
I would suggest you read up properly then. Sustained keytones will damage your organs. As you know indication of keytones means you are burning glycogen stores but continued levels will damage kidneys. Also means your blood is becoming acidic. The higher the number the worse it is.In what way is it bad?

Im using keto testing as a clear indication that Ive reduced my insulin resistance and have a fat adapted metabolism.
I mentioned elsewhere, its nigh on impossible to get an IR test in the UK. Unless you've been diagnosed a diabetic.
Its really odd when IR precedes diabetes by many years and its not readily available
I was significantly overweight. Ive still got a bit to goSilly question but are you overweight with increased abdominal fat?
Just take it steady. I know you are probably in a bit of shock about the pre-diebetes, so steady as she goes. Remember, you've got to stick to a plan, and making it difficult, isn't easy to maintain mentally too.I was significantly overweight. Ive still got a bit to go
