Ketostix

I was wondering, since everybody is saying how unreliable the ketostix are.. Do we all speak about the same thing? Because I have KetostiX from Bayer, looking like the picture, bought from Amazon with £2.49, 50 sticks. And they have been always extremely accurate, showed ketosis when I am on this diet, I tried it on other family members and it was negative, and tried it again on me now when I am having a break, and turned negative. Not one false result.. Are these the same ketostix everyone is talking about?

Theyre the very ones.

Theyre not always wrong lol But they are well known for being inaccurate - mostly with false negatives, a lor of people never show in ketosis on the sticks but clearly are

No, I realize that, is just that they seemed to me like one of the most reliable test strips I've seen (compared to ovulation, pregnancy etc). So I convinced myself that perhaps there is some other brand you're talking about (remembering also the topic about cutting one in FIVE which seems impossible for these strips).

Anyway, I used them more for the fun of it, it's not like the result will change anything in what I do..

At least you have the right attitude for them, Ive seen so many posts with people absolutely panicing because theyre not showing pink anymore
