Re: ketosis???
Correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a loooong time since I've used a Ketostick, but aren't they beige before urinating on them? If so, any color change indicates ketosis.
I don't think that the color differences means much in the way of levels of ketosis. Ketosis, like pregnancy is all or nothing, kinda like pregnancy. You either are or you aren't. I think the darker levels indicate levels of dehydration.
I hope someone with more Ketostick experience comes along soon.

Re: ketosis???
Any color change on the ketostix indicates ketones in the urine or ketosis. So a light pink to a dark purple is fine and indicative of ketosis.
