<strong>What are Ketones?</strong>

To better understand what is going on here, let's first take a look at what are ketones. These are chemicals that appear when the body starts using fat instead of carbohydrates to produce energy. People who are, for example, bodybuilding, choose to start a low-carb diet because muscles grow better when the body burns fat instead of sugar. For the majority of people, in general, the presence of ketones in blood or urine is beneficial and doesn’t cause any kind of concern. But is the situation the same with ketones diabetes?
