Application

Test strips for measuring ketone body levels are an extremely useful tool for specialists in various medical fields:

• Diabetology: Physicians can monitor ketone body levels in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, especially in cases at risk of ketoacidosis. This is important for glycemic control and assessing fat metabolism.
• Dietetics: Nutrition specialists and dietitians can use the strips to monitor ketones in patients following a ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diet to evaluate diet effectiveness and tailor it to individual patient needs.
• Sports Medicine: For athletes and physically active individuals, ketone body measurement strips can help optimize bodily performance during training, particularly for those on a ketogenic diet.
• Endocrinology: Physicians dealing with hormonal disorders may use the strips to monitor ketosis and metabolic balance in patients with hormonal imbalances, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
• General Medicine: General practitioners can use the strips for quick metabolic assessment of a patient’s condition in cases such as eating disorders, starvation, or rapid weight loss.
• Geriatrics: In the care of elderly patients, ketone body test strips are useful for monitoring metabolic disorders, especially in patients with changed eating habits or chronic illnesses.
