Breath and urine tests can also measure ketones, and both can be done either at home or at a doctor's office. Breathalyzers evaluate the ketones on the breath, while a home urinalysis is similar to a pregnancy test, with a stick that reads the ketones excreted from the body. Although these are good to help monitor ketosis day to day, a blood test at the doctor's office is more accurate.
