Impact upon pH. Both acetoacetic acid and beta-hydroxybutyric acid are acidic, and, if levels of these ketone bodies are too high, the pH of the blood drops, resulting in ketoacidosis, a complication of untreated Type I diabetes, and sometimes in end stage Type II (see diabetic ketoacidosis).
What is Ketosis. Ketosis occurs in the body when a consistently low level of carbohydrates depletes liver glycogen and the body burns fatty acids for fuel, which create ketones as a byproduct. Ketones are a source of fuel, just as glucose is a source of a fuel.etosis occurs in the body when a consistently low level of carbohydrates depletes liver glycogen and the body burns fatty acids for fuel, which create ketones as a byproduct.
