Ketones are an acid remaining when the body burns its own fat. When the body hasn’t had the correct supply of insulin, it struggles to get glucose from the blood into the body’s cells, which means that it will then try to burn fat as a way to use energy.

When this happens, the liver converts fatty acids into ketones, which then get released into the bloodstream for use as energy. Everyone will have ketones in their blood, because it is normal for the body to burn fat. However, when diabetes sufferers, who are insulin dependent, have high levels of ketones in their system, it can lead to a dangerous condition called ketoacidosis.

A high levels of ketones is a common complication of diabetes. People suffering from high levels of ketones in their system are advised to contact their GP as soon as possible. This is something that anyone who is dependent on insulin should be aware of, and it is essential to know what the symptoms are and when the best time to test for ketones is.

Some of the symptoms include an dry mouth, or blood sugar levels that are greater than 240 milligrams per deciliter. In addition to that, a strong thirst is also something to be wary of, as well as frequent urination.

Without treatment, symptoms can progress to confusion, fatigue, flushed skin and vomiting, among others.

The MHT Stripes home testing kit allows people to get accurate and sensitive results fast. The process is simple and involves dipping the test in urine, which then generates immediate results.
