Deep dives

Assessing Ketone Production and Liver Health

Determining liver health can start by assessing ketone production during fasting. If the body fails to produce ketones after extended periods without food, it may indicate liver issues. Ketone monitors can be used for this purpose, enabling individuals to check their ketone levels after fasting for several hours. Low or absent ketone production suggests a potential problem with the liver's ability to properly metabolize fats.
