Respiratory quotient (RQ) and resting metabolic rate (RMR) are approximately the same measure for our purposes. They are estimated by measuring carbon dioxide and oxygen in the breath to determine the rate of carbon dioxide production and rate of oxygen uptake. The ratio of these two rates (CO2 productions to O2 uptake) provides an indication …
SENSITIVITY AND ACCURACY
The LEVL device was designed specifically for weight loss and measures wide spectrum of ketosis regardless of dietary approach.
To ensure accuracy and precision, the LEVL device is calibrated every 14 days using known gas concentrations. Calibration gas can also be used to check …
Testing patients with LEVL is quick and simple to incorporate into your existing workflow with results delivered in 15-seconds. .
Because the LEVL device measures low levels of ketones as the body transitions to elevated fat metabolism, it can be used with any prescribed weight loss program. Blood and urine tests were developed to identify ketoacidosis and are not sensitive to lower levels of ketones that are indicative of fat loss. Based on the scientific …
LEVL is FDA cleared, HIPAA compliant and exempt from CLIA.
Patients should take a measurement at their first visit and every office visit thereafter. Measurements can be used to keep patients motivated with fat loss predictions, confirm compliance and personalize weight loss programs for patient success.
Acetone, a ketone body present in the breath, is a byproduct of fat metabolism. Measuring acetone with the LEVL device helps weight loss providers personalize weight loss programs with real-time fat metabolism insights.
The LEVL device was designed specifically for weight loss and uses a proprietary sensor to measure low levels of acetone and can be …
