- In this video I discuss why Urine Strip Tests (affiliate link) amzn.to/2YaA3RQ are a great way to check for Ketones in Urine when beginning a Ketogenic diet. However I also explain why eventually Urine Strip Tests for Ketones isn't as effective at identifying Urine Ketone Levels and Ketone Urine.
We also get to hear a first hand experience in using Urine Strip Tests to test for Ketones in Urine, her results of the Keto Urine Strip tests, and really how and why she used to use Keto Urine Strips.

Most common questions I get ...
1) "Doc, what BLOOD KETONE METER do you recommend?"
ANSWER: FORACARE: bit.ly/2QKGmKG (Promo-code: Dr.Boz)
It's accurate and takes only ONE test-strip to get results. YES!!
2) "Doc, what can I have while fasting?"
Salt + water are best.
Pocket Salt: bit.ly/31ypeen (Promo code: DrBoz)
Salt Sucking Rocks: bit.ly/3bkpZMl (Promo code: DrBoz)
Sounds weird but it's strangely satisfying.
Black coffee - I prefer cold brew coffee.
Fasting tea. My favorite = Pique Tea Instant Crystals:
Bergamot Black Tea: bit.ly/2T5Ej3d
Pique Teas have great flavor and the highest antioxidants possible. They
freeze dry their tea into crystals. Pique Tea acts like instant tea ... with
GREAT TASTE. Not bitter. Not moldy.
Ketones-In-A-Can is also a nice option during a fast. If you have to have
something, use ketones to strengthen your metabolism during your fast.
Bone broth bit.ly/3asMa1G
3) "Doc, how do you know if you're eating the right fat?"
Measure it. Your Red Blood Cells keep track of the fat you eat. The "skin"
of your red blood cells show the answer. Order the test and do it at
home. Mail it in for your results. No doctor's order needed.

Oh my God I couldn't agree more. I was a sugar addict and when I started peeing ketones I was amazed that that wasn't craving sugar after every meal
Yeah I'm here after reaching keto urine test level 40❤ im so happy its usually 5
I'm using the urine strips and I'm curious as to whether or not there is an appropriate or optimal level that you should be looking for as far as color on the strips?
Why do i have HIGH ketones in my urine and NONE in my blood !?
I'd like to see answer to this.
I'm in the same boat: 80mg/(2+) was detected in my urine test. However, my doctor wasn't too concerned. He just told me to increase my water and electrolyte intake. I have been on carnivor for almost 3 months.
Houston, Texas. I just ordered my Ketone Urine Test Strips. They may not show any ketones because I have been eating keytogenic for several years and I fasted 40 days last year for lent
I am new to this channel and so glad I found it....I am looking for info on Keto and One Kidney. I am in the process of donating my kidney and I’ve been on the Keto diet which I LOVE! I met with a dietician last week who told me I would no longer be able to practice a ketogenic diet which bummed me out . But I can’t seem to let it sink just yet 😅🙈
Pro tip : watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Giovanni Arturo yea, I have been using flixzone} for months myself :D
@Giovanni Arturo yup, I've been using Flixzone} for months myself :D
How long will the strips work for me? How can I tell Im still doing well after strips no longer give me info?
Test strips never show ketones regardless of how low (nearly zero) carbs I eat. I've lost 60-65 pounds, but test strips never show anything for me.
Big possibility was they were no good, if they were out of date or not ceiled properly in there container the strips become useless. always check the expiry and keep the strips ceiled well , also they should be used with in a certain time , they can deteriate after some time.
I'm 8 months pregnant with gestational diabetes and my ketones level is high. I need advice of what to do
Did you deliver a healthy baby
273 days and counting, urine sticks still work for me. They agree with my Fora 6.
Thanks dr Boz
I've been doing low carb/carnivore, not keto for 3 months and have lost 25 lbs and yesterday I had labs and my A1C was 4.9 but for some reason my urine showed I had a level of 80 mg/dL for ketones. Is this bad? Why is it so high? Am I doing something wrong?
I'm not a diabetic.
My ketone strip shows 40-80 in 7 hours after I ate? I’m a plant based eater and just started fasting. Is that ok?
Dr. Box,
Can you tell me how long one can remain on the keto diet before one has to get off of it. Or do you have to get off of it at all? Please respond
Pete
Dr. Boz. I got my a1c down to 5.6 through kero. I'm now off insulin and only taking metformin. Waist went from 50 to 44. I'm making LOTS of ketones (blood levels 5, 6, 7) but my sugar is still averaging 113. I've had a handful of readings in the 90's.
Is it ok to be making this level of ketones when my sugar is high-ish like this?
Thank you
@Dr Boz Do you recommend ketones for someone in Renal failure?
Ive ben intermittent fasting for 3.5 weeks due tk breast cancer and i have zero carbs sugar. Well some carbs from lettuce and broc. Im not eating very much protein. I want yo starve the cancer but having barely any glucose to feed it. But my ketones are registering 8. Do i need to add carbs? Electrolytes?
How is everything going for you?!
Dear Dr, do you recommend the keto diet for arthritis patients ?
molly aloysius I’m on it and it really helped inflammation only appear after weights workout and not the three day after lactic acid bc I used to have them. Walking 20-25 thous steps a day .
@@lynnwilliams5432 Thanks!
why does my urine keto strip read dark purple but then one min later my blood ketones are only 0.9.....im confused
is there a taste test for ketones? will my urine burn if there are ketones? still looking for for strips in south korea.
You can find it in Amazon.
I'm 10 weeks into my ketogenic way of eating (under 20 carbs per day). My blood ketones usually range anywhere from 1.5 - 4.9. A urine test strip is also measuring the highest level on the stick. I thought I should quit wasting ketones in my urine by this time. Any idea what's happening? Could my body not be using the ketones I'm making? I'm a bit confused and discouraged by this.
Have you noticed a weight loss?
Doc, all my tests have come up perfect.... including ketones in urine... the problem is.... i've started producing calcium oxalate stones.... they are small yet, just sediment.... but i'm worried about what to do to eliminate them..... in my city there are no keto friendly doctors... the responce was, cut down the fats up the carbs..... HELP PLEASE!!!!!
Dr Bozz has a video on gout and kidney stones . I had kidney stones and used to be a vegetarian but foods with osculates did it along with not enof water . But check out Her video on this it's worth watching.
Thank you!!!!! I'll watch it
I would like to start my ketogenic diet. What would you recommend to read or watch about ketogenic diet?

Check out Dr. Boz's book: amzn.to/2rf1fPP there's an Audio version too: adbl.co/2SLLfS1
dana102083 gives good recommendations but the master of keto and the technology behind it is Ivor Cummins.. Check his YT channel and read his book, Eat Rich Live Long - amazing.
