Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How can I check for ketosis using a blood test at home?
The LifeSmart Ketone Test Strips should be used at home in combination with any LifeSmart-compatible blood ketone monitor for accurate tracking of ketosis. These LifeSmart Ketone Test Strips provide a reliable blood measurement that confirms whether your body is in ketosis, unlike the strips for urine, which may be less accurate over time.
What is the safest way to monitor ketone levels with type 1 diabetes?
In the case of type 1 diabetes, the monitoring of ketones is very essential to avoid diabetic ketoacidosis. LifeSmart Ketone Test Strips provide fast, accurate results with a tiny blood sample, which helps users in the early detection of a rise in ketone levels and takes further action accordingly.
Are blood ketone test strips more accurate than urine strips?
Yes, the LifeSmart Ketone Test Strips use blood-based measurement, giving you a real-time and exact reading of your ketone levels. Urine strips tend to lag behind actual ketone production and can be affected by the hydration level of your body.
Why do test strips for ketones cost more than strips for glucose?
The manufacturing processes required to make the LifeSmart Ketone Test Strips are more involved, including special enzymes. Each LifeSmart strip is individually wrapped in foil for integrity, and because they serve a more niche purpose than glucose strips, the lower volume of production also affects cost.
How do I use the LifeSmart Ketone Strips with my monitor?
Insert a strip into your LifeSmart Glucose & Ketone Monitor, apply a small blood sample, and wait approximately 10 seconds for your result. Always use the code strip included in the pack when starting a new box to ensure calibration.
