What should your blood levels be for ketosis?

Hi!

Great question! This is what I found on the Keto Summit website:
“If you want to lose weight…Aim for a ketone level above 0.5 mmol/L.

Looking to improve exercise performance? Again, aim for a ketone level above 0.5 mmol/L.

Need to boost mental performance? Then aim for 1.5 – 3 mmol/L.

And if you’re using the keto diet for therapeutic purposes? (e.g. to treat epilepsy) Then you might need higher ketone levels of 3 – 6 mmol/L. But make sure to work with a medical practitioner on this.”

I hope that helps!

G’day Gary, yes as Becky stated on her answer is correct. I am at present going between 1.7 mmol/L and 1.9 mmol/L. I fast most days sometimes until 5pm sometimes maybe 3 pm if I can’t wait any longer. I weight train of a morning in a fasted state and feel like a machine!
