MONITOR YOUR FAT BURNING LEVELS AS YOU LOSE WEIGHT. Ketones are the result of your body being on a ketonic state. Indicating your body is burning fat for fuel rather than carbohydrates which can help you achieve your weight loss goals. Measure precise quality results in seconds.
A quick and easy way to test for the presence of urinary ketones - 100 Ketone Test Strips per tube. In weight reduction dieting the presence of ketones is a sign of success.
Ketones (acetoacetate, acetone) occur in the urine as a result of increased breakdown of body fat in weight reduction dieting or as a result of poor glucose utilization due to insulin deficiency.
Ketones and simultaneous increased blood (above 250 mg/dl or 14 mmol/l) or urinary glucose values in diabetic patients, on the other hand, point to insulin deficiency. If this is the case, see your doctor.
Professional Quality , CE Marked - Perfect for using with various diets - ketogenic, paleo, atkins and for managing type 1 diabetes.

Product description

The presence of Ketones is the body's signal that there is a problem with you diabetes control High levels of Ketones can form when you burn too much fat for energy and if untreated, can lead to serious complications. This is a convenient and easy way to test for the presence and concentration of urinary ketones : There are 100 Test strips in each sealed pot. The product must be kept out of sunlight with the lid on when not being used to ensure the quality of the strip. : These strips are CE Marked and comply with all regulations; they for professional use.

Directions

Advice for users using it for a ketogenic diet: test it in the morning when you first go to the bathroom. When you diet you usually increase your water intake and the strips might appear too clear and lead you to believe you are not on keto. So always best to test with first morning urine sample.

Safety Warning

Keep away from light and moisture. Promptly replace cap after taking out strips. Do not remove desiccants.

Is your body burning fat cells?

The presence of elevated levels of ketones in human urine is a primary indicator that the body is in ketosis. Ketosis simply means that the body's stored fat cells are being utilized as a primary fuel source to produce energy. The by-products of fat metabolism are ketones. Ketones are not stored by the body and are eliminated as detectable waste products in urine. Therefore, monitoring the level of ketones is presumptive of, and directly correlated to the metabolizing, or burning of stored fat cells to produce energy. Likewise, the conclusion can be drawn that the higher the concentration of ketones in urine, the higher is the amount of fat cells metabolized by the body. Ketone test strips are used routinely to help measure the progress of dieters especially those maintaining a low carbohydrate diet.

Additionally, ketones are monitored in individuals with Type 1 diabetes. In diabetics, high ketone levels indicate ketoacidosis, a complication of inadequate insulin levels that can lead to diabetic coma. In overall health considerations, high ketone levels are generally an indication of abnormal nutritional conditions, including starvation, fasting, anorexia, high protein or low carbohydrate diets.
INDICATIONS:

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.
As with all laboratory tests, definitive diagnostic or therapeutic decisions should not be based on any single result or method.

WARNINGS

- Store at temperatures between 15-30C (59-86F) and out of direct sunlight.

- Replace cap immediately and tightly.

- Do not remove desiccant form bottle.

- Read enclosed directions carefully.

- Do not use after expiration date.

- Use only if tamper evident seals on this carton are intact.

These are the diagnostic reagent strips used by physicians, clinics and hospitals to initially screen for suspected and/or existing health conditions. Simple to use, urine diagnostic reagent strips can provide early indications of developing health problems and identify potential abnormal functions requiring more extensive testing. Additionally, routine use is frequently recommended by physicians for monitoring certain existing and chronic health conditions.

PROCEDURE & USE:

- Collect a fresh urine sample in a clean, dry container preferably glass. First morning samples contain the highest concentration of target markers.

- Remove one reagent strip from the bottle and immediately replace the container cap, minimizing the exposure of the remaining test strips to light and air.

- Completely immerse the reagent pads of the strip in the urine sample and then remove immediately to avoid dissolving out the reagent pads.

- While removing the reagent strip, run the edge of the strip against the rim of the specimen container to remove excess urine. Hold the strip in a horizontal position to prevent possible cross contamination of chemicals located in adjacent reagent pads.

- Compare the colour change of reagent pads to the corresponding colour chart on the bottle label. Read results according to the chart's time frame for each panel tested.

- Record the results of your readings for discussion and/or evaluation with your physician or healthcare provider and then discard the used reagent strip.
Each vial of urinalysis reagent strips includes a colour coded chart (shown in the images).

The reactive colour of each panel on the test strip is compared to the closest corresponding colour on the result chart. The concentration level range for each chemical marker is indicated below each colour block on the result chart. As with all tests dealing with colour intensity or colour matching, it is often recommended to obtain another person's interpretation of the test result. Shown to the left is the colour result chart for the URS-10, ten parameter test strip. Each of the ten reactive reagent pads on the test strip are compared to the corresponding line of colour blocks on the chart. The closest colour match indicates the test result. Use of reagent strips are intended as an initial indication only of elevated chemical markers and not conclusive of a specific diagnosis. Further testing and consultation with a healthcare professional is necessary to confirm the presence of specific disease or health conditions.

Glucose: Glucose should not be detected in normal urine. Small amounts of glucose may be excreted by the kidney. These amounts are usually below the sensitivity of this test but on occasion may produce a colour between the negative and the 1/10 g/dL colour blocks. Results of 1/10 g/dL (if consistent) or higher are considered to be significantly abnormal and professional advice should be obtained immediately.

Protein: Protein is usually not detectable in normal urine. A colour matching any block greater than "Trace" indicates significant proteinuria. For urine of high specific gravity, the test area may most closely match the "Trace" colour block even though only normal concentration of protein is present. Clinical judgment and advice along with further tests would be required to properly evaluate the significance of consistent "Trace" readings.

pH: Normal and abnormal urinary pH may range from 5 to 9. Readings are generally situation specific and should be discussed with your healthcare professional. Generally, certain conditions manifest in low or high consistent pH readings and should be professionally evaluated. First morning urine from healthy individuals will usually range from 5 to 6.

Expected results for Leucocytes, Nitrites, Ketone, Bilirubin, Blood, Urobilinogen and Specific Gravity (URS-Strip 10) including normal ranges are included in a complete instruction and use sheet. In most cases, for these additional test panels, you want to obtain a normal, or negative result meaning that the reagent panel does not change colour. A colour change in one or more of the reagent panels normally indicates an unexpected result. For example, a significant colour change in the leukocyte panel would indicate an elevated level of white blood cells indicating a possible infection.

A color change, or abnormal reading in the blood panel could indicate undiagnosed internal bleeding.
