Tips
● Getting into ketosis usually takes 4-7 days, so save your strips and don’t start measuring before day 4.
● Not yet in ketosis? Wait another day. Once you’re in ketosis, you can start measuring as scheduled.
● Extra ketone test strips are available here at Ketofitshop.com. Don’t forget to use your personal discount code!
It’s all starting this week, and I hope you make a smooth and easy transition to fat burning.
Let me finish with repeating that while it may seem strange to prick yourself for that droplet of blood at first, you’ll really get used to it in no time. And please, contact us if you have any questions on using the Go-Keto Meter.
