Anyone test their ketone levels?
I usually test three times a day and measure slight levels in the morning and moderate levels in both the afternoon and evenings. I have never tested in the higher ranges and I am curious how this compares to others' measurements. I know that as long as you are producing ketones (regardless of the measurement) that you are…
