do ketones in urine smell
The breakdown products of the process, called ketones, can accumulate in your blood and eventually in your urine. One type of ketone, called acetone, has a telltale âfruityâ smell; if youâre making ketones, youâll likely have fruity-smelling breath. (Since acetone is a key ingredient in nail polish remover, it might more accurately be called ânail polish remover breath.â)
