Great Product
I've been using this product for about a week and I haven't ran into any issues of the test strips reading low as some others have stated. I track my carbs rigorously and know that I'm hitting my macros daily. I kept getting the same range of results between 4.0 and 8.0 on the strips regardless of when I tested (after fasting, before and after meals, etc.) so I ran a little experiment this weekend and intentionally knocked myself out of ketosis and the strips reflected accurately. In my opinion the price is well worth a few bad strips, if that happens.I did have issues trying to get the free e-books that they offer with purchase so I reached out to their customer service and they responded within 24 hours on a Saturday! I'm very impressed with this company and would definitely recommend purchasing their products!!

Seems to do the job
Not much to say ... pee on it and if you're in Ketosis, the strips turn color ... just like it's supposed to do. With that said, there's no way to know how accurate they are.

Color is sketchy
Doesn’t respond. I question the results. I come back 40 mins later and they’re dark purple. With prescribed time, they don’t change. Hard to know. I eat no carbs.. I don’t trust this product.

There ARE inaccurate sticks in this batch
Read the reviews which said some sticks didn't read accurately - l found some variance in results too. So tried using two sticks at the same time and YES some did not read at all! Get one dark reaction and one no-reading from two sticks testing the same sample at the same time!So ok value, but don't rely on individual tests, use as a pattern of several tests to show ketosis over time for more accurate feedback.

Accountability
I'm slowly making my way back. I eat low carb all the time time ... probably just too much of it. So now, I'm trying to get back into that ever-desirable state of ketosis! I have days when I feel no different, then suddenly have a giddy feeling like I can do anything. That's the feeling I'm after! Ok, so here's the deal, you have to pee on the strip and that can be awkward for females. I recommend you keep a designated plastic cup next to the toilet for this purpose as it's far easier and cleaner. Then, dip your test strip for a few seconds and wait a few more seconds while you empty/flush/wash your cup. You want your color results to be noticeably darker than the 1st color on the color guide (which is located on the outside of the bottle). Think it's easy? It wasn't for me. You really have to track all that you eat. I still have trouble with my macros (carbs/fat/protein ratio) but it's a learning process. If you're still struggling, you can always purchase keytone supplements (just don't get the powder - it's gross).So far I've learned that your first pee is not the deciding factor (I use to think this was THE one & only time to test). I get different results throughout the day. I find that by mid afternoon I have darker results. You need to see this for yourself as it really encourages you and makes you believe these strips really do change color lol. So bottom line is this, don't assume you're in ketosis just because you eat low carb. Test yourself on a daily basis. This way, if you're suddenly in ketosis on Saturday and then you're not by Monday, you can evaluate what you ate on Sunday that caused this. These strips are great for accountability and I find that they really help keep me on track.

They seem to work
They seem mostly accurate.But some days not so much. I track my carbs religiously. There are days that I know for sure that I haven't had too many, but the strips will read low. Not zero, but low. So maybe some are faulty. Over all I'd recommend these strips. Cheaper and easier than a ketosis meter. And a great guide to help stay on track. 45 lbs down in 4 months.

Pretty accurate and instant results
I used this brand and another brand and used goth strips at the same with very similar results but the purple was more pronounced on this strip (long bottle) as compared to the other brand (short bottle). Very happy.

Accurate but can be tricky to read
It works, but can be tricky to read if your body is in light ketosis. Hard to tell the difference between no ketosis and some ketosis. When the body is in "ideal" or "high" ketosis, it's easy to read, which was very helpful (and encouraging!). I learned that when I'm in ketosis, my body sends signals to let me know that I'm burning fat.This was a worthwhile purchase to help me understand my body's ketosis process. However, now that I know what signals to look for, I probably won't buy it again.

Consider another brand
These give false readings. Agree with some of the other reviews that only some strips work. 2 strips from the same box can show different readings.
