What is Ketosis?

Ketosis is when your body uses fat as an energy source. Ketosis normally occurs from either a metabolic condition such as hypoglycaemia, or when you follow a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Some people’s metabolisms benefit from restricting carbohydrates to a certain level and is considered and effective form of weight loss. However this must be monitored as carbohydrates are an important source of energy for our body to function.

Benefits of following a Ketogenic Diet

By eating foods that contain fat your appetite feels more satiated. You are also more likely to stick to a healthier eating plan if you don’t feel like you are restricting yourself.

Memory, concentration, PCOS, Insulin Resitance and Inflammation are all conditions that have shown to improve when reducing your overall blood sugar levels.

How do the Strips Work?

Graded results allow you to check the level of ketosis.
