Method of determining nitrogen balance and fat loss for persons involved in diet and/or physical training program

摘要

A test kit for determining the relative level of nitrogen of a user who is involved in a health program where diet and exercise are monitored and adjusted for optimizing physical development, the system includes a plastic stick having a first reagent zone on which is included a reactant such as urease, and a pH indicator such as bromthymol blue, and a second reagent zone on which is included a reactant indicator such as sodium nitroprusside used in conjunction with color chart blocks representing a range of urea nitrogen and ketone concentrations, wherein the user's urine nitrogen and ketone content can be determined by comparing the altered color of the reagent zone of an exposed test strip to the color chart blocks and compared with a personal baseline level, developed from a number of tests under controlled conditions, for determining the present protein nitrogen turnover and approximate balance, and the body fat metabolism.
