KETO-MOJO Bluetooth Ketone & Glucose Blood Testing Kit + APP, 20 Test Strips (10 Each), 1 Meter, 10 Lancets, 1 Lancing Device, Monitor Your Ketosis & Ketogenic Diet

Keto-Mojo makes an excellent multi-function meter. I have been an RN for over 20 years and used many different glucose meters. Getting laboratory-quality results in a home-setting requires good technique, whether it is a glucose, ketone, or hemoglobin level for which you are testing. Hand-washing, alcohol-wipes, and discarding the first drop or two is solid advice. Additionally, having enough blood in the drop, before you touch it with the fresh test-strip, ensures you don't half-fill the capillary-tube on the strip. Compared to the meters of 25 years ago, this one is super easy! This is the meter for my Keto diet and I value quality tools.Additionally, reposting tips from KM customer service:Tips to help with accuracy.1. You need to wash your hands thoroughly before each test. Alcohol wipes as well. There are many things on your hands that can contaminate a test for example: dust, skin creams and especially if you are using MCT oil or exogenous ketones, those will throw a test way off.2. Once the alcohol is dry, wipe away the first drop of blood (not with the alcohol, but a fresh tissue or sterile swab) and test with the second. The first drop will likely be diluted with the alcohol even if it's dry.3. If you are doing multiple tests on one drop, we've found that once the blood starts to coagulate, the readings can shift. Also, it isn't unusual for the tests to vary a little. Also, keep in mind that when meters are tested for accuracy they are tested 100 times. The accepted tolerance is determined from 100 tests, not 2, 3 or even 10.Tips for when to test for consistency.1. Test before you break your fast to get a good baseline of what is in your blood.2. Test at a similar time each day if you can to keep the results more consistent.3. If you test after eating specific foods, test at a similar time interval. For example: 40, 80 or 120 minutes after the meal.4. Keep in mind that rarely will something you ate today affect your ketone readings the same day. Usually it takes a day or so for that to register. It's different for glucose readings, those will spike within 30-90 minutes usually. The exception to the ketone readings would be exogenous ketones, those can affect ketone readings within 30-90 minutes.5. Remember that exercise also can affect your measurable ketone levels.6. Keep in mind, with ketones, bigger numbers are not always better. A reading of 4 or 5 isn't better than a reading of 1 or 2. A high reading could mean that your body is very good at producing ketones, but possibly your body isn't great at using them yet. Usually once you are fat adapted, you will rarely see those high numbers but you are doing great! Everyone is different, if you are in the zone, you are doing well.Michelle ket

I'm new to the ketogenic diet and bought this one because it was recommended by so many keto experts, like Dominic D'Agostino and the Diet Doctor. I've only had it a little while, but so far it's working great!This review is long but if you are purchasing this you definitely should read it because I wanted to let others know of some issues that I had with testing at first. Some were my own fault and a couple were mistakes in the manual that I found.I had a couple error codes when I started testing, one that showed my strip expired and one that said it was a used strip even though it wasn't. Oh, and one that I couldn't figure out at first, it said E-F. Turns out, that means that I didn't get enough blood to suck up into the strip. I got them all figured out now. The expired thing was because I accidentally set the year wrong when I first set up the meter. So I went back and reset that to the right year and fixed that. And the used strip one was because I wasn't waiting until the meter was ready to start the test. You have to see the blinking blood drop on the meter first.I went to their site and got most of this figured out by watching the videos there. (probably should have done that first) And for one problem I contacted their customer support people who were super helpful and friendly. (at least the one I chatted with)I found a mistake in their manual too. It says that the strips need to be used in 30 days, but the side of the container says they are good for 6 months after you open them. I contacted their customer support and they let me know the 6 mo is correct and if you don't open it, it's 18 months from when they make them.One last important thing, I threw away the thing they call the code chip by accident. It came with my ketone strips but I didn't see it there in the box with the instructions. The good news is I figured it out right away and grabbed it back out. You need that to use once with your new box of ketone strips, it makes them more accurate.
