Well, everyone is saying the strips are a waste of money (which may be true) but I bought them yesterday, even though I've been low carbing for a month now. Seeing that lovely pinkish hue did make me feel comfortable though, just knowing for sure that SOMEthing's up.
I also get a metallic taste in my mouth. Not really unpleasant, if anything it helps me to drink more water.
Quick question:
Does anyone know a good use for these testing strips? I mean, assuming they work correctly, they should be able to be used to find out what the highest level of carbs is before one stops being in ketosis, right?
Any input on this manner would be nice... so I don't have to waste the strippies.
