The result is the synthesis of ketone bodies. The liver canât use ketones, which is actually a safety measure to make sure the liver dumps them into the bloodstream for the use of other body tissues. For the first few weeks of a low carb diet, muscles and all other body tissues do use ketones for fuel.This is a preservation mechanism, and the purpose is to save any available glucose for the brain.ne is that when we go on a low carb diet, we are burning ketones for fuel. The idea was probably born due to the fact that the heart and a few other body tissues prefer to use ketones over any other fuel source.
That depends. Ketosis is a normal metabolic process, something your body does to keep working. When it doesn't have enough carbohydrates from food for your cells to burn for energy, it burns fat instead. As part of this process, it makes ketones. If you're healthy and eating a balanced diet, your body controls how much fat it burns, and you don't normally make or use ketones. But when you cut way back on your calories or carbs, your body will switch to ketosis for energy.
