Does Coconut Give You A False Sense Of Ketosis?
Hey folks,
I've been trying to be ketogenic, and have been measuring urine ketones with ketostix (ketone testing strips), just to make sure that I'm not underestimating my carb intake, or that there isn't some source of hidden carbs in my food that I'm not aware of.
Now, I've recently discovered the wonders of coconut cream and creamed coconut. However, I've just read that coconut fats can produce ketones independently of low-carbing. Will these register on the strips and give me false positives?
