Ketones are organic compounds that result when body fat is broken down for energy. While this may not sound like a bad thing, for people with diabetes, especially Type 1 diabetes, high levels of ketones in the body can be toxic. Should you develop ketones, you need to know how to identify symptoms, how to check for them, and which levels are considered to be dangerous.
What are the symptoms of ketone build up?
If you have diabetes, you need to be especially aware of the symptoms that having too many ketones in your body can cause. These include:
· blood sugar levels greater than 240 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL)
If you don't get treatment, the symptoms can progress to:
· a fruity breath odor
· nausea
· vomiting
· stomach pain
· trouble breathing
You should always seek immediate medical attention if your ketone levels are high.
To perform a Urine Test, you urinate into a clean container and dip the test strip into the urine. Urine testing strips contain special chemicals that change colors when they react with ketones. You can interpret the test results by comparing the test strip to the color chart on the package. When you have ketones present in your urine, it's called ketonuria.
An at-home meter is available to test for blood ketones. This is performed in a similar way to a finger-stick glucose test. You prick your finger with a needle and place a small drop of blood onto the testing area.
Doctors often recommend that people who' ve just received a diabetes diagnosis test their ketones twice daily.
What do my results mean of Ketone Test strips?
While individual testing may vary, in general, results for ketone testing are labeled in the following way:
normal/negative | less than 0.6 millimoles per liter (mmol/L) |
low to moderate | 0.6 to 1.5 mmol/L |
high | 1.6 to 3.0 mmol/L |
very high | greater than 3.0 mmol/L |
