What are ketones? Ketones are a normal and efficient source of fuel and energy for the human body. They are produced by the liver from fatty acids, which result from the breakdown of body fat in response to the absence of glucose/sugar. In a ketogenic diet, such as Atkins … or diets used for treating epilepsy in children, the tiny amounts of glucose required for some select functions can be met by consuming a minimum amount of carbs – or can be manufactured in the liver from PROTEIN. When your body is producing ketones, and using them for fuel, this is called “ketosis”.

@CryBearARiver after not eating for 2-3 hours is usually a good accurate reading, but it also depend on exercising, you can check on a daily time, each day, and see if the color stays the same or changes, it also depends on hydration.
When is the most accurate time to use a ketostix?

@lizard26 Thanks, I am always branching out but never too far off, low carb is a lifestyle, and not just counting carbs or calories, it is so easy to adjust and tweek, I am re adjusting my thinking about how certain foods fuel me and other foods just fix me…thanks for watching !
@sistahonamission yes, it has brought me in a more secure place, and I really enjoy that I can continue to try new things to help with weight loss, but more about finding my inner strength and not use food to solve problems or celebrate by over indulgence..thanks for updating me on your progress,
@sgorick Thanks, I am thinking about trying a 24 hour fast, I need mental preparation, because I know I can appreciate the foods I do eat and learn to eat when I am hungry and eat for fuel, but also enjoyment it give me, I now understand more about my strength and weakness too, food is not my fatty enemy, it is how I abuse it…now I am getting weird…LOL thanks for watching !
Nice update video. I am looking forward to seeing how you make out with this.
Good luck with the combination!
Hi Bonnie, it is great to hear from you. I really enjoyed intermittent fasting. I am glad you are feeling better and look forward to seeing your continued success. Take care.
I have been doing intermittent fasting while in ketosis and am losing weight much faster now. I only eat when I’m hungry and sometimes fast for 24 hours. It makes you realize how little we really need to eat.
