How to get accurate ketone readings? 1. In order to get accurate ketone readings, please exhaust the residuals completely with the ketone meter before your first use by running the keto breath tester 3 times without blowing,because each ketone breath analyzer was tested during the production before shipping to warehouse, there maybe residuals; if you want to test another person consequently after your testing, please also kindly exhaust your previous residuals 2. Please blow immediately within first 5 seconds when displaying BLOW on the ketosis tester if you finish the residuals exhaustion step, because the ketone breath tester starts analyzing the breath right after the first 5 seconds. How To Test Your Ketone? Using our Ketone meter for breath testing, it is a type of meter specifically calibrated for measuring the level of ketosis for those on a ketogenic diet 1.Hold the power button for 3 seconds until the device turns on 2.Wait 20 seconds countdown for device warming-up 3.Blow with the mouthpiece for 6 seconds, the testing result will be displayed on the screen: Readings of 0.0 signify the person is still not in ketosis state Readings of 0.1-0.5 signify the person is in a light state of ketosis (the process of fats being used by the body as the main source of energy began ) Readings of 0.5-3.0 signify the person is in full state of ketosis, which is the optimal ketone zone (the process of fats being used by the body as the main source of energy) Readings over 3.0 signify the person is in starvation ketosis Readings over 5.0 signify the person is in too much ketosis and need medical care Readings over 7.0 signify the person is in ketoacidosis

Do not get this!! It makes up numbers! Read this!!
Product is inaccurate!!! Do not buy!! Says it measures ketones.. my wife and I are doin the keto diet and thought this was good to measure our keytone levels.. instead of using the pee sticks all the time.. it kept giving us a range of .9 to 2.9 which we thought was awesome!! But we started to wonder how accurate it was.. so my wife had a cheat day where she ate funnel cake French fries and a deep fried Mac cheese ball at the fair... butt load of carbs... a few hours later we went home and she blew into this device said 1.85.. then 2.0.. so I thought that was strange.. so I had my son who’s not doing keto blow into the device. It said 2.0.. then my friend who’s not doin keto it said 1.95.. so this device just makes up numbers.. I’m writing to amazon to ask them not to sell this fraudulent product!!!

Somewhat accurate, very convenient
Comparing the readings to my blood ketone meter, I find the readings to be relatively accurate. Sometimes I get readings of ketosis ( ~ 2 mM/L) when I'm definitely not in ketosis (having consumed a ton of refined carbs). I find that you need to get a > 5 mM/L reading to really be assured to be in ketosis.

Unreliable and expensive
I've tried this meter for several weeks and have found it to be inconsistent in readings, generally unreliable. Also, it's expensive to use. The unit is almost $50 and comes with only 5 breath mouthpieces. Unfortunately, each mouthpiece is only good for a few readings and needs to be discarded, so 5 don't last very long and replacements are not available online. I contacted the seller who very graciously sent a replacement meter but it was equally unreliable. If the meter was around $20 maybe buying replacement mouthpieces as needed would be okay but at $50 it's more cost effective to go with the blood test meters which are more accurate and less expensive over time.

Does not work
This product does not work, my son has been in Ketosis for 6 months and comparing meter's and readings we determined that my first day on the Ketonic program should not have given me a positive reading for ketosis. My husband who is not on the Keto program used it and he also should in ketosis. This product is giving inaccurate readings.

Easier than strips
Easy to use, but don't take a deep breath before, and exhale until it beeps.

Very User Friendly
I just started on a Keto diet and was looking for an easy way to check if I was in Ketosis. This is simple to use and accurate. It’s very portable. The measurements that I got with this meter was comparable with the one in my doctor’s office.

Everything about is great.
Easy to use and read. It is more convenient and more accurate than urine test. When I know I am already in ketosis, it helps me stick to ketosis and motivates me to keep eating in keto way.
