Hello there. I can understand your concern. . I cannot go too much in detail. For details on how they work and other things can be found online. The kits are just fine. I cannot say they are very accurate. But they can give you a rough idea. For exact levels, lab test is a must. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
