Testing for ketones, Urine vs Blood vs Breath.

[@nenavega6641]

New to your channel, and I’m loving it so far! And I love that shirt! Who doesn’t love Bacon!!!

[@leannewatson5998]

I’m watching all your old videos now too and they’re so helpful. Every time I have a query or worry you always seem to answer my questions in your videos and make me feel better! Thank you

[@sms9106]

Keychain, flashlight, stun-gun keto-meter is the ultimate.

[@adehed]

I was onboard until you said, "don't inhale before you exhale" 😂

[@kevinstanley3503]

I do not nor have I ever owned ketone testers. Thank you for those that are interested in it. I say eat clean and it will be fine. Hunker down joe and Rachael a storm is brewing.

[@kelliemartin4569]

Hey Kevin, I believe your name was just chosen to win that Keto goodies box!

[@allanweilert7185]

Kevin, congrats on winning the Keto Krate!

[@cazjames2863]

Well not if you are very ill and need to get a very specific glucose ketone ratio

[@mstoysav]

I have been using Ketoscan for several yesrs.... please note, the acetone analyser needs to be returned to OEM for service after 300 tests (not optional)

[@Trivia2013]

Love you Crazy Ketos.heres a crazy idea when you hit 20000 subscribers have contest where winners are blessed to spend a weekend with two crazy Ketos

[@justin7hundley]

It puts the lotion on its skin

[@allanweilert7185]

I’ve never once tested for ketones, nor have I obsessed over macros. But thanks for your effort anyhow. Let’s hear it for “Lazy Keto!” Haha.

[@missyg3107]

I just found your channel last week and I am loving all the content you are bringing to KZbin - thank you for all you do!

[@sherrylong7774]

Good video. Very informative. Thanks guys

[@stwong71]

So relieved to know that the pee strips aren't accurate now that I've been in ketosis for so long. I've been eating less than 25 total carbs for the last 3 months and couldn't figure out why my pee strips weren't showing ketones consistently anymore!

[@Terri_Stauffer]

Good explanation of each different type. I was thinking it looked like breathalyzer, not as easy to use as you think.

[@paulbenson3703]

Thinking keto mojo breath testing sounds too easy for me to good up have a blessed day

[@kellymulherron7819]

Hi @2crazyketos ! I was wondering if you still recommend the same ketone tracking system that you did 2 years ago. I'm about 7 months in / 45 lbs down and ready to level up my keto game. Pee strips just don't offer enough real data. Thanks!

[@cindynelson4484]

I don’t see the link for the podcast about ketonix?

[@donnasparrow4]

Wow that is truly interestings I wish I could afford that Breathalyzer but it's a little out of my budget at the moment

[@bobredford9237]

I had two ketoscan breath meters. One meter read 10 PPM and the other 23 PPM. Ultimately, I returned both of them for a refund.

[@Matt-gf4gd]

I know you mentioned different results between blood and ketoscan, but have you noticed if they show similar trends? I.e., different numbers but they trend up or down similarly over time?

[@2krazyketos]

Yes they do. It's just the numbers dont mean the same thing

[@KateInSaltLake]

NOTE: On the pee sticks, once you are in "trace" you are in ketosis. The darkest colors can indicate you are dehydrated.

[@2krazyketos]

Yes, that is true

[@Pipsterz]

Enjoyed your info and personalities. Likability Factor 👌💓😁 Rachel is adorable! 'Even there you actually did INHALE'... lol Of course she did. Don't we all. Cheers.

[@johannaj2009]

i had Blood: 6,5 mmol and Ketoscan: Level 10 (30ppm) should I worry?

[@kelliemartin4569]

Girl I LOVE your shirt!! 😁

[@sms9106]

Nice explanation ... I like the shirt too (BaCoN)

[@RachelRaeism]

This was very interesting!

[@Swenser]

Do any meters distinguish between ketosis and just indicating you've had a whiskey?

[@schleimaguy]

Hi folks, i'm a french guy and really enjoyed the video which made me buy a Ketoscan mini to test our breath my wife and I. The device seems to be fairly reliable. we've been on keto for a little over two weeks under 40g carbs/day. My wife's numbers don't really go above 4 or 5 which is fairly low. However mine have been steadily increasing (up to 25ppm one morning before any food intake). I'm normally in the 8 to 15 range when doing 3 tests a day: very high in morning 12-15, middle in the afternoon around 8 and then up again to 10-12 before dinner). Is this ok and how to back down if numbers get too high, i don't want to get near the 40ppm limit, just eat a little more carbs during the day I guess ?. As an aside I don't want to lose weight, just strengthen my muscles for team sport (volleyball) and reduce inflammations. keep up the good work

[@annfraley7083]

Someone should have answered this by now. This device measures the off-gas or byproduct of burning ketones. Acetone - like nail polish remover. It doesn't measure ketones circulating in your blood. You would need a blood tester to have any idea whether you are reaching dangerous levels of ketones. But assuming neither of you are T1 diabetics or eating zero carbs while taking T2 meds which actively lower glucose, you couldn't induce ketoacidosis if you tried. Enjoy your meter and your keto diet.

[@christyohara9234]

Nice job.

[@lisaaghdami3806]

after 6 years at goal weight, pee strips are still working for me... we are all different.

[@o221e3]

So what is the most accurate ??

[@2krazyketos]

Breath when done right

[@tiborbaranyai6118]

2krazyketos tkx for the detailed video. I do want to bring up the fact however that if you are a multiple user per day or/and you have another multiple user in your family (say twice a day times 2 people) then that 300 uses comes up really fast. It can be as fast as 2 months and a bit at which point you send it back for recalibration for $30 and this can easily occur 4 times a year in a family where two people are using it and both check their status twice a day! Twice a day is not even that much! So if you do the math that's $150 ( for the device) plus the 120 (4 times sensor recalib.per year) in your first year. That's $ 270!!!! Granted that's not as much as the blood testers and you are perfectly right about that. And there's a lot to like about this meter especially the app it comes with. But just to be fair, it's not the cheapest breath meter out there because of the continual recalibration costs. (the company who came up with this is pretty smart about that move, I'll have to give it to them! ) I hope my comments were not rude or anything as it wasn't my intention, I just wanted to shed a light on some costs that may occur for some people such as my family where we are both on KETO with the average of 2 uses/per day/per person. I hope it helped.

[@2krazyketos]

You are correct, but as we said, it’s cheaper than blood testing. As far as other meters, there are a couple, like the Ketonix, however any good breath meter needs to be recalibrated. The cheap ones you see on amazon are not accurate. Breath meters pick up everything in the air and what you breath, which is why the need to be calibrated. The same thing goes for police alcohol breathalyzer . That’s why they Have to keep detailed records for the calibration always people can challenge the results in court. .

[@planetina5616]

Heads up in case you're still interested, there's a device called Keyto which calibrates to the air around you before each use so never needs to be sent back for calibration, the upfront cost is $100 and is apparently as accurate as ketomojo

[@jimmaley1005]

$300, in Canada :(

[@d.ashgrove1247]

Nope, definitely not using anything connected to the internet or a spy app on my phone. I HATE it when companies do that shit. I don't want anything that requires a computer or "smart phone".

[@Puglover130]

What do you think “they” with do with Joe Nobody’s keto breath data?! I think your tinfoil hat is too tight.

[@allanweilert7185]

Stay safe, y’all!

[@georgiospapageorgiou5208]

Is this paid advertisment?

[@2krazyketos]

No

[@agr8h2o]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@wdennis8]

Two cute

[@b4ds33d]

Terrible rambling incoherent video.

[@paulbenson3703]

Goof

[@jcejka2011]

Enticing video, but I dont have 30 minutes to find out the pros/cons. Can you condense this to 8 minutes? I never watch anything educational over 12 minutes. If it cant be consolidated to that, my thought always is I am going to have to listen to someone babble just for 3 bits of key info. Not worth my time.

[@2krazyketos]

Sorry you don't like our style. I Many of our videos have shortened over the years but some things take longer then 8-12 minutes to explain, especially this topic. If you only want 8-10 minute videos, we probably aren't the channel for you

[@Puglover130]

This kind of comments really bug me. Are you that narcissistic that you think they will re-release. A video shorter just for you? Because you’re So Very Important 🙄🙄 Here’s a tip. The first 5 min are just an intro, the last 5 are a sign off. Take the middle part and watch on 2X speed. There- I just made it 7,30 minutes. No whining or editing necessary

[@Bond00016]

uhh first of all when you inhale that air travels into your lungs, so explain to me how your blowing out the same air you inhaled ? :)

[@2krazyketos]

you are trying to get the air in the bottom of your lungs. It works just like a police breathalyzer

[@Jill_K_S]

As a respiratory therapist speaking, the first appropriate 1/3 of your breath is dead space. They are correct. To get down to the alveolar level in your lung, you do want the second portion of your breath to be measured. Pulmonary function test use this technology.
