    What is a D3 Hydroxybutarate Test?

    The D-3-Hydroxybutyrate test measures the concentration of 3-hydroxybutyrate, a ketone body formed during fatty acid metabolism. Elevated 3-HB levels may indicate conditions like diabetic ketoacidosis or chronic heart failure. In diabetic ketoacidosis, 3-HB levels rise sharply due to increased ketone production, while in chronic heart failure, higher 3-HB levels suggest a ketosis-prone state associated with increased fat breakdown and stress hormone activation. This test is used to assess metabolic states and monitor conditions linked to abnormal ketone production.

    If you’re in Mumbai and need to evaluate your ketone body levels, the D-3-Hydroxybutyrate test is a key diagnostic tool for conditions like diabetic ketoacidosis and chronic heart failure.
