Compatible with the Glucofix Tech Meter to measure ketone levels
The Glucofix Tech Ketone strips measure the concentration of ketones in your blood. Ketones are chemicals produced when the body breaks down fats for energy. The Glucofix Tech Ketone Strips specifically measure the level of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) in your blood, which is a reliable indicator of your ketone status.
With the Glucofix Tech Ketone strips you can regularly check your ketone levels and gain insight into your metabolic state. This is especially important for people following a ketogenic diet, athletes looking to improve their performance, or those looking to support their health and weight loss goals.

Why measure ketones?
During physical exertion, our body uses sugars (Glucose) or fats. The consumption of body fats produces ketones and in large quantities can acidify your blood. An increase in your ketone level is also referred to as ketoacidosis. Since ketoacidosis in combination with diabetes can lead to a diabetic coma, measuring ketones under special circumstances is strongly recommended. Otherwise, you can also look at the Ketogenic Diet, for example.
