Assessing Liver Health Through Ketones

Checking for ketones in the body is essential for assessing liver health. If an individual does not produce ketones after extended periods without food, it might indicate liver issues. The use of ketone monitors can help individuals determine their ketone levels throughout fasting, which is important for understanding liver function. A lack of ketones during fasting could suggest that the liver is not effectively metabolizing and detoxifying the body.
