Review: Ketonix Acetone Breathalyzer – Initial Impressions
Just added a new tool to my arsenal. This new toy was the reason I started looking into the whole ketosis and false positive on alcohol breathalyzer things in the first place.
I first came across this as I was wandering around the reddit/keto page where some folks were discussing this contraption.
The general idea behind why the ketonix would be helpful is this:
- When entering ketosis, we are encouraging the body to utilize fat as fuel rather than carbohydrate (glycogen and glucose)
- Fat is broken down into three main ketone bodies which the body then uses for energy
- Beta-hydroxybutyrate: This is what is detected with blood ketone strips
- Acetoacetate – This is what is detected with the urine ketone strips
- Acetone – A break down product of acetoacetate which the body gets rid of via exhalation.
, which many people who follow the Bulletproof Exec Dave Asprey report success with. One of the main benefits is that you only need to train for 12 minutes, once a week.
