    Evening all,
    I would like to get some strips to test for ketones, and I was curious about people's favorite brands. Last time I was at Walmart, I had looked for some there to at least get started, but (shocker!) they didn't have any. I think I've seen you can buy them at any pharmacy, but I'd rather see what works best for y'all before I dive in.

    Do you have strips that just test for ketones, or do any of you have some that test for both glucose and ketones? I really like the idea of strips with the glucose on it to be able to tell if Lou is above his renal threshold.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
    Amanda

    Personally I use the Keto-Diastix. You can order them from amazon. $12 for 50. These also have the glucose part on them.

    I use Bayer KetoDiastix. They have the glucose testing part on them too. I buy them in a human pharmacy for about $20 CAD for a 100 strip bottle.
