Testing with KetoStix and Alcohol
After reading some of the posts around alcohol and ketosis I decided to undertake a very scientific study (other wise known as getting drunk for a reason).
I tested my urine at 4pm and was at second highest colour for ketosis. I then went to the pub and over the space of 6 hours has three glasses of wine, 1 beer and 3 vodka and sodas.
I staggered home and retested, only to find that I now had only trace levels of ketosis. What was most interesting was that by morning I was back to a high level of ketosis.
Food for thought anyway and enough to make me think twice about my sixth drink........
