Deep dives

Measuring Fat Burning Through Breath

Fat burning can be tracked by measuring breath ketones, which serve as indicators of the body's fat metabolism. When engaging in activities like intermittent fasting or carb restriction, the body converts stored fat into ketones, resulting in increased ketone levels that can be measured through breath. As the body ramps up fat burning, approximately 10 to 20% of these ketones are exhaled, allowing tools like the tone device to provide valuable feedback on fat burning states. This method is portrayed as more practical and insightful compared to traditional urine or blood testing methods, which may not provide a complete picture of one's fat-burning efficiency.
