KETO-MOJO GK+ Bluetooth Glucose & Ketone Testing Kit + Free APP for Ketosis & Diabetes Support. 20 Blood Test Strips (10 Each), Meter, 20 Lancets, Lancing Device, and Control Solutions

1. First, it is FDA approved and to achieve that it needs to be proven accurate. Unlike most meters even glucose-only meters, it comes with calibration fluid. Second, I tested it against a blood glucose meter and they tested within 5 of each other. It also comes with calibration for the Keto side.2. People complain the strips cost more for the new meter and the company says they cost less. They cost less for the new meter by a lot. People also complain that they are bundled and they don't want equal amounts of each. The company sells them separately on their web site, and they say they sell pairs here because that's what most people want. At first I thought, I want them separate and I'll use my glucose meter and save some money, but you don't. The Keto strips on their own went from $1 to 80 cents each when bought on their own. Purchased as pairs, 60 glucose plus 60 ketone strips sold together cost $60, making them each 80 cents for ketone strips and 20 cents for glucose strips, making the glucose strips cost 2 cents less than for my glucose meter. If you are on a Keto diet, you need both to calculate the Glucose Ketone Index (GKI) so there is no reason to maintain two monitors.3. For $45 you get a case (semi-hard), the monitor (with light on the end to illuminate the blood draw area and strip eject slide), with Bluetooth capabilities mobile app (that calcs GCI, displays individual sets of readings with both a graph and explanation of how with an explanation of how ketogenic you are, stores, readings and graphs trends in glucose, ketones, and GKI, enables hiding experimental food readings you don't want included in the trend ), batteries, finger stick (top notch with lancet eject), bunch of lancets, 20 glucose and 20 keto strips, calibration fluid for both glucose and keto, a quick start guide, and lots of stuff nobody reads, but no alcohol pads which I don't use anyway. $20's worth of that is in strips, so you are paying $25 for the nicest monitor and accessories out there.Experiences:1. The case and/or the meter suffers from a design problem in that any time you open, close, or touch the case, the meter turns on inside. I've found the best way to mitigate that is to put the meter into the case face-side-up and upside down in its pocket, and push the finger stick all of the way to one side. This way the button is not under the elastic netting and the finger stick hits the meter in an area offset from the button thereby preventing anything from pressing on it.2. Android App: If you follow the Quick Start Guide instructions directions on the sheet that comes with it, the Android app will not work with the new GK+ meter. However, their lightning fast e-mail support gave me the procedure to get it to work as well as another question I had asked.The following is the key information required to get the Android app to work:Quote from Keto Mojo's tech support: "We have removed the requirement for location permissions and we are now using Android's Companion Device to sync the meters.This has changed a few things:1. When you get the screen "Link with Keto-Mojo", based on your description, you will need to tap the name of your meter where the Bluetooth icon shows next to it. It won't progress to syncing until you do. This will link the meter with your phone and start the synchronization. If you have previous readings because you added the app later, it will read everything in the monitor the first time it syncs.2. The next time you sync with the same meter, it won't ask you to link again and will just start syncing like before. If you want to sync with a different meter, the app will find it and you can link that meter too, but you can only be linked with one meter at a time.Another key piece of information about the app:Quote from Keto Mojo's tech support: Neither the app nor the meter have the ability to delete individual readings; however, the app has the capability to hide individual readings that will not show up in your app or be calculated in trends. To hide a reading: Tap on the reading you want to hide, tap on "hide reading" under the reading display. That's all there is to it! To unhide the readings, go to your settings and under Data, select "Restore" next to Hidden Readings. NOTE: This will restore all hidden readings, as we do not have the ability to restore individually hidden readings at this time. However, you can set date limits the window for trends and graphs.Setting the date and time manually if you cannot get the app to work or have no eligible device:*Their direction to do that to "hold the button down 3 or more seconds" will not work properly. If you try that, you will miss settings and the reason will be apparent why as you read.- Concept of operation: The side buttons adjust the readings up and down, while the front button accepts and progresses to the next setting.- To get it into the setting mode: Instead of momentarily pressing the front button to turn it on as you do with normal operation, you push and hold the front button until the screen lights and then release immediately. If you follow Keto Mojo's instructions you will have already progressed and approved several settings without ever having seen them.- When pushing the front button to approve and advance to the next setting, push it very briefly because a normal press will often cause it to approve the next setting without you ever seeing it, giving the appearance that it skipped it. If this happens to you, you simply have to go through the process again an approve until you get the previously skipped setting. You cannot go backwards.Bottom line: Not so long ago, measuring keytones was quite expensive. Today it is not, and to have a single meter and app that automates the visibility required to manage your keto lifestyle makes makes buying the Keto Mojo GK+ a no-brainer. Since I have no diabetic issues, I keep my old glucose monitor in the glove box of my car in the event I am in a situation where it might prove useful to help someone, which also has happened three times already, once a guy who got lost on the way to the doctor's office for a fasting glucose test, another time at a wedding when things got way behind schedule and a guy couldn't stand by himself or figure out how to get into a car, and another time when a guy was trying to clock in swiping a quarter instead of his badge.Update: I would not want to be without this meter and app. It's ability to calculate and track my GKI is required to know what affects your fat burning. For instance, I learned the regular coffee spikes my glucose and devastates my keytones whereas decaff does not. Stimulants make me fat, not thin as advertised, and that is backed up by the scale as well.

I have been using the old Keto-Mojo Ketone/Glucose meter off and on for almost 3 years. I was super excited with the release of the new Meter – the GK+ — and felt it was a much better choice for my lifestyle. I love the individually wrapped strips. The meter was super easy to set up and get connected to the Keto-Mojo app.I was diagnosed as Pre-diabetic 3 1/2 years ago. I decided to try the Ketogenic diet to see if this would help. Testing both my Ketones and Glucose on a regular basis would be important to help me on my journey but after doing research, I found that testing Ketones was very expensive. Testing ketones back then could be $2-$5 per test! I did not think I could afford to test at that time. Soon after I heard about the Keto-Mojo meter.Both Diet Doctor and Thomas DeLauer recommended the Keto-Mojo meter. I loved being able to know how foods were affecting me quickly. I was able to get my high blood sugar under control within 2 months of being on the Keto Diet. Since that time, I test when I want to introduce new foods to my diet. The Keto-Mojo meter is the best tool I have found to know what my levels are for both Ketones and Glucose.Plus being able to track my progress on the app lets me also give my Doctor my readings quick and easy.With the previous Keto-Mojo Meter, the downside was that the strips were sold in a vial of 50 which may be more than I might use before they expire in 6 months. This can get expensive. The new meter has individually wrapped strips. This is fantastic.With the older Meter, when I first learned to test, I did receive errors and was very frustrated. I considered returning the product, but I really wanted to try out the Keto-Mojo meter. I reached out to Customer Support by going to their company website. Amazon cannot help you with the meter. Keto-Mojo’s customer support helped me walk through the testing process and I was able to test without errors. Yes, being new to testing there was a learning curve with being able to get enough blood.I purchased the new GK+ meter as soon as it was released. Right from the start I knew I loved this meter. Here are some great changes:• Individually wrapped strips at a lower price!!• NO CODE KEY needed!!! -this is so great. (Yes, I threw mine away once- Thank you Customer Support for your assistance with this) •New carrying case- The new case holds all my supplies. I would call it a soft sided hard case.• Control Solution- This was not included in the older model. Thank you very much Keto-Mojo for including both ketone and glucose control solution. This gives me peace of mind that I know the meter is in range when I start testing.• Easy Set up- Make sure and pull the tab that is on the batteries. It says, “Pull Here.” Read the Manual it is easy to follow along. But you can also find the set up on the company website in the help section.• No little button on the back to push.• Sealed Lancing Device and enough lancets for all the strips inside the starter kit.• The Keto-Mojo app is amazing, the connection to the app was simple and easy.I love this company because they are small company that really cares, and they are all about information. So far, testing with the GK+ meter has been a breeze. They have a great start up story, and they listened to requests for lower prices and new features on the app. Being a business owner myself I understand making these changes is not something that can happen overnight.The website is the real deal for me. There is no other one stop shop for learning everything (and I mean everything!) about the keto lifestyle – I’m hooked on the recipes and find myself anxiously awaiting new posts.I feel if you are looking for a Blood Glucose and Ketone meter this is the best choice.Thanks Keto-Mojo!
