How to use the pH test strip

Collect fresh urine in a clean container. Tear off a test strip with dry fingers. Dip the test strip into the urine for 1 second, pull out, and shake off surplus liquid. The test strip changes colour depending on the pH-value on the moistened patch. Compare the colour with the colour scale within 2 minutes. Read the value, which is closest to the colouring of the test strip (reading accuracy: ± 0.1 pH).

Dispose used test strip in the garbage. Your pH at particular times of the day should fall within the range given in the graphic.  However, to evaluate the results of this test and how it relates to your acidity please consult a qualified health care professional.
