pH Test Strips in the UK

[GeCon]

Hi,

I have looked at ph test strips and am wondering which ph test strips to get and where from. Any help would be much appreciated. I have seen some online, but they either only go from 4.5 to 9 or in full numbers. :think:

Thanks.

Where do the UK ladies get theirs from?

Thanks, does it not matter that the range increments in full numbers rather than halfs (i.e. 4.5 etc)?

To me not really as long as my ph is getting lower it's ok. I was 6 before I started the sups and diet and i'm going to test it again when i've been on the diet for 4 weeks. As long as I see that the strip is changing colour in the right direction then i'll be happy. They're cheap and easy to read to that works for me.

But If you want a really accurate reading you can get digital pH testers from Amazon starting from about £30 I think. It depends on what works for you. I would get the strips and see how you get on with them. If not well and you feel that you'd be happier with more accurate readings then i'd get a digital.

Actually just looked on Amazon and they start from much less than that.

You should join the UK SMOG wananbies thread! It's got lots of UK ladies swaying pink on there some TTC now, some pregnant and some like me just starting their sways and a few waiting to TTC next year. A few of them have just got new PH testers so would be worth asking what they have.

It's also really good for just sharing general advice and tips and plans!

Lavenderlime, I will have a look at the thread. I thought it was only for ladies already attempting.

I'm on the smog thread and I'm just researching at the moment, won't be swaying properly until early next year.
