Gaining insight into your cholesterol levels is an essential part of a conscious lifestyle, but the threshold for regular check-ups at a doctor's office can be high. Uncertainty about your heart health can cause anxiety, especially when you are actively working on a healthier diet or more exercise. The FORA 6 total cholesterol strips offer you the possibility to monitor these important values easily and reliably in your own familiar environment, so that you can immediately see the effect your efforts have on your vitality.
- Flexible sampling: You can take blood from the fingertip, palm, upper arm, or forearm, which ensures more comfort during testing.
- Minimal effort: Only a small drop of blood (3.0 µl) is needed to obtain an accurate result within 120 seconds.
- Wide measurement range: Suitable for monitoring values between 2.6 mmol/l and 10.4 mmol/l, making the strips widely applicable for various health situations.
- Certified certainty: The strips comply with the ISO 15197 standard and are CE-certified, which gives you the reliability needed for your daily routine.
How it works
The FORA 6 cholesterol strips use advanced biosensor technology that specifically reacts to the total cholesterol in the blood sample. When the strip is inserted into a compatible FORA 6 meter, the device automatically recognises the type of measurement. By linking the results to the iFORA Healthcare app via Bluetooth, you build up a clear file. This supports you and your healthcare provider in evaluating long-term trends, supported by data that is comparable to professional laboratory equipment.

Ingredients
Cholesterol Test Strips for use in the Fora 6 Multimeter.
Use & Dosage
The FORA 6 cholesterol test strips are exclusively compatible with the FORA 6 Connect and FORA 6 Plus meters. For the most accurate measurement, it is recommended not to eat or drink anything (except water) for 9 to 12 hours beforehand. Preferably measure early in the morning, before breakfast. Wash your hands and dry them well before the finger prick. Insert the strip into the meter, apply the blood sample, and read the result after 120 seconds. Close the packaging immediately after use to maintain the quality of the remaining strips.
Safety & Disclaimer
Medical device. Read the leaflet before use. The average measurement deviation is ±10-15%. Total cholesterol is only one indicator; for a complete picture, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides are also important. In case of abnormal values (above 6.5 mmol/L), we advise you to contact your GP. Store the test strips in a cool, dry place between 2°C and 30°C and protect them from direct sunlight and moisture. Do not use strips that have passed their expiry date.
