When you are in ketosis. This can result from Diabetes. OR if you are on a high protein diet, like the Atkins diet. It is a sign you are burning your fat.
However, the Atkins diet has been shown to be inadvisable and does not even really induce ketosis. In fact, any weight loss is more-so the simple fact that protein is more filling than carbs, sugars, and fats. Not healthy either.

Why acetone odor on the breath of a patient a clinical symptom?
Acetone odor of the breath is technically a "sign," not a "symptom." Acetone in the breath occurs as the body rids itself of excess acetone through the lungs. This is a characteristic sign of ketosis and ketoacidosis- metabolic problems which may occur in diabetes. Ketosis results from large scale conversion of fats into fatty acids and ketone bodies when glucose metabolism is impaired (either by diet or disease). Ketoacidosis results when ketosis is accompanied by a drop in the pH of the blood, and is a potentially life-threatening condition.
What are signs that a person is starving?
One interesting sign, although it is more subtle than weakness or other symptoms, is bad breath. When you begin to starve your body undergoes amino acid catabolism, break down of proteins, to supply your body with the energy it normally gets from glycolysis. A by product of this is acetone which is released from your body in a gaseous form when you exhale. Acetone causes you to have bad breath. This is the cause of morning breath, as well as, bad breath often associated with some types of diabetes.
