Google Search: The Glucose Ketone Index

Today, I review, and link to some of the information when I ran a Google Search on The Glucose Ketone Index. <–All that follows are links and information from this web page.

AI Overview
The Glucose Ketone Index (GKI) is a mathematical ratio that compares your blood glucose to your blood ketone levels to show your depth of ketosis. It is calculated using the formula: (Glucose in mg/dL ÷ 18) ÷ (Ketones in mmol/L). You can also use online tools like the Keto-Mojo GKI Calculator to find your score. [1, 2, 3, 4]
How to Read Your GKI Score
  • Above 9: You are not in ketosis.
  • 6 to 9: Low-level ketosis, which is good for general health and weight maintenance.
  • 3 to 6: Moderate nutritional ketosis, common for weight loss and metabolic balance.
  • 1 to 3: High or therapeutic ketosis.
  • Below 1: Deep therapeutic ketosis, which should only be done with a doctor’s care. [1, 2, 3]
Tips for Measuring
  • Test your blood at the same time every day, ideally while fasting.
  • Use a dual blood testing meter to check both glucose and ketones from one finger prick.
  • Talk to your doctor before making major diet changes if you use GKI for a medical plan. [1, 2, 3]
