Ms Arielle - the KetoMojo meter was developed for LCers and diabetics (I & II) who want to track ketone levels when following a LC approach. The meter ketone strips are much less expensive than all others for this reason. Before the fascination with LC and ketogenic WOE, these meters were used, in fact, for Type I testing of ketones to detect levels indicating ketoacidosis. Since they were used much less often, the ketone strips were prohibitively expensive with those for a good quality meter like the Precision Xtra over $4.00 per strip. Note that you must use the strips that are made for the specific meter. A KetoMojo meter kit purchase comes with lifetime $.99 ketone strips, which enables people, diabetic or not, to test ketones more frequently. The glucose strips are even less pricey and are competitive with other inexpensive, high quality strips on the market. I have the KetoMojo kit, and it's an excellent meter with a good deal on strips for those wanting to test BG and BHB.
