Re: multi-vitamins
Ketostix. You don't necessarily need them (I don't use the stix). Look instead for physical signs of ketosis, like nasty breath, funny-smelling urine and/or sweat, thirst, increased energy, reduced appetite. These are often more reliable than the stix, which only measure the concentration of excess acetoacetate (only one of the 3 types of ketones) you spill over into urine.
Multivitamins w/o iron. The ones made for men or the 50+ versions usually have no iron. I think Centrum Silver is one brand you can find in the States."Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster."

Re: multi-vitamins
And if you do want the Ketostix, they're usually by the diabetes testing supplies. I use them, but like Georgiana said, they're definitely not necessary (or even always very accurate!)Start date: June 26, 2009
