A member asked:

I recently had a physical for a new job, including blood work and urinalysis. to prepare, i didn't consume any food the morning of the exam except water. the results came back with "trace a" ketones in my urine. i'm not diabetic.what does that mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It means your body was breaking down some fat to convert to energy. With that history of fasting I would expect that urine finding. I wouldn'rt worry about it.
