Ketone bodies are formed only under the condition of carbohydrate starvation. So, a person who is not under carbohydrate starvation does not create ketones when metabolizing fats (both dietary and body fats) |
Ketones are present at all times. They increase as carbs are depleted, but they are present at other times. Here is a non-dietary reference that shows that ketones are available in non-starvation periods.
