Consuming fewer than 20 grams of carbs daily is known as a ketogenic diet, or a very low-carb diet. The brain only uses glucose or ketone bodies for energy. When you restrict your glucose intake due to a low carb intake, your body converts fats into ketone bodies.
The mononucleosis test is used to help determine whether a person with symptoms has infectious mononucleosis (mono). The test is used to detect proteins in the blood called heterophile antibodies that are produced by the immune system in response to an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, the most common cause of mono. A mono test is frequently ordered along with a complete blood count (CBC).

A mono test is frequently ordered along with a complete blood count (CBC). The CBC is used to determine whether the number of white blood cells (WBCs) is elevated and whether a significant number of reactive lymphocytes are present. Mono is characterized by the presence of atypical white blood cells.
