A member asked:

What would cause trace ketones in urine? could it be what i ate today. bowl of oatmeal with some fruit and small plate veggies, farro, chicken strip for lunch? have had 4 urine tests in past month and this is the 1st trace ketone that has shown up

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to be sure: Ketones are just the break down products of fat when tissues use it as an energy source. It by itself is not a problem. Some on a low carbohydrate diet will see it more than others.
