Re: Started the diet, help, Nicola

Nicola,

> His ketones are (for the last 4 days) 4 mmol/l in the morning , 8

in the evening.He still says he is hungry in the evening.

Logan had SZRs 3 weeks into the diet because his urine ketones were

low. We studied what was different that had caused his ketones to be

low (we try to maintain a 80-160+ urine ketone level). The SZRs were

in the morning at urine ketone 40-60. We figured out that he needed

more fuel (food) to make more ketones at that time. Adding 20cc of

keto formula (215cal/150cc) at about 10-10:30pm (his version of a bed

time keto snack). The change made his ketones 160+ in the morning. We

also check his ketones and specific gravity with every diaper change

(about 5-6 times daily) with Bayer MultiStix bought from

CanadaPharmacy.com for $44/100 sticks. We use the Stanford Meal

Planner because we can calculate 4 meals a day with it.

I hope ethis helps, Pete
