These test strips work great for T1D’s to let us know if the drink we order when at a restaurant is truly sugar free. So far I have detected one drink that was not sugar free and it was exchanged for a sugar free

Love this! I get migraines and one of my triggers is sugar. So finding zero/diet drinks in the world is so hard. But at restaurants/fast food I trust no one. I can tell if it’s sugary or not and people tend to not believe me. No I can save my head with strips!

I can’t say if they are accurate or not because I have no other way of testing soda but they seem to work great! Came with a lot of test strips in each tube and you get the results a lot faster than what the instructions say.

These are brilliant. I don’t quite use them as intended but rather, I use them to help identify sugary drinks and weed out drinks with artificial sweeteners which make me very ill. Obviously a bit of guess work is required on my part but having put them to use and seen them work for various beverages, I am very confident that anyone needing them to rule out sugar would find them very reliable.

I often found myself dumping full sodas that I had paid for because they “didn’t taste right” and I didn’t want to risk it; I am not diabetic but am trying to keep my calorie intake reasonable for my size and a large soda would be several hundreds of calories difference if given normal vs. diet. These are wonderful, and I love that you get two separate tubes of strips in each box so I can keep one in my car for drive-through trips and one at home for delivery foods!
I do wish the strips and their case were a bit shorter; they don’t need to be as long as they are which is wasting material + making the strips take up more space than needed. If they were shorter they could fit in a pill-case keychain which would be great! I would just trim my strips and put in a different case, but I’m not sure if the materials in my pill-case (metal of some sort) would interfere with the strips’ accuracy, so I don’t. Just the smallest of gripes and not a big deal, though. The strips are wonderful and I’ll be buying these for the rest of my life I’m sure!
NOTE: The manufacturer has a notice above that talks about how these work; they detect high fructose corn syrup which is the typical sweetener used in non-diet drinks. It MAY NOT WORK on sodas sweetened with other sugars. I’m a dietitian and the basics are that “sugar” can be many compounds.
“Table sugar” like you might mix to “test” these strips is 50% glucose, 50% fructose, and that molecule is bound together chemically. Thus, when it is in water in a cup, it is *still* sucrose, not glucose + fructose separately. It is not until after consumed that your digestive enzymes break that bond and turn the sucrose into glucose + fructose separately.
Sodas in the US are typically flavored with HFCS, high fructose corn syrup. HFCS has different formulations, but in soda it is usually 55% fructose to 45% glucose. However, unlike in table sugar, this fructose and glucose have already had the molecules broken apart and is actually in solution as fructose and glucose before being consumed.
These strips detect *GLUCOSE*, not sucrose (table sugar), fructose (fruit sugar), etc. Thus if you try to “test” these with a mixture of table sugar or juice you may find they are giving negatives because they are detecting unbound glucose. I have tested this myself since I happen to be a researcher in a nutrition lab which studies the effect of different sugars, so I have them all separate in bags. You can see in my images that I have made mixtures of water+dextrose (another name for glucose), water+fructose, and a diet soda. The only strip that had a positive was the dextrose (glucose) strip. And so if your drink has unbound glucose (such as in HFCS or pure glucose) it will detect it, but it may fail to detect other sweeteners with bound glucose.

Love these

These have saved my type 1 son more times than I can count! I am about to buy my sixth box. ONLY and I mean only complaint is the lid. It pops off in his supply bag with just the usual jostling around at school and all the strips fall out. I still use the strips that I can save but I wish it was more of a screw off lid or something else.

I have type two diabetes and was recommended this on a chat group. I was on to check out beverages to see how they really affect you even if the beverages say they are zero sugar or diet. This helped me double check things to make sure as it’s a relief to know you didn’t accidentally get a regular soda versus a diet. I’ve tested it on a lot of things at home such as coffee creamers, ice tea, pickle juice, soda’s it definitely does work. I would definitely recommend it. Lets me know what I can drink and what I should stay away from just if something is marked as zero or light or diet does not necessarily mean it’s good for a diabetic I would definitely recommend and would get again. I feel the reason reasonably priced and work very well and they gave me a good piece of mind.

These have been a great piece of mind. Luckily I have not had a non diet mistake in the short time using them but being diabetic just the piece of mind has been great. Glad I found the product!

I use these to make sure my drinks are not diet. I can’t have artificial sweeteners and these have stopped me from having reactions more times than not.
