Do you mean ketones? Ketones are a by-product of fat breakdown. When a person is not eating enough carbohydrates (bread, pasta, rice, potatos) for their energy needs the body starts using its fat stores for energy and ketones show in the urine. It may also be a sign of Diabetes. If I haven't answered the question you asked please ask as something different.
