Answer:

Ketonuria

Explanation:

Ketonuria, a name given to the presence of ketone bodies in the urine, occurs when the body cannot use glucose (sugar) to generate energy, either because of the lack of this nutrient in the bloodstream or metabolic problems, such as diabetes. In the absence of this fuel, the body will seek in the body fat the energy it needs. Ketones or ketone bodies are formed during the process of fat metabolization.

Ketone bodies in the urine may be a sign of decompensated diabetes, malnutrition, prolonged fasting, very strict diets, or any other situation that has caused the body to use fat as a source of energy, such as intense exercise.

When there is not a clear transparency between doctors and patients what are some possible issues that can arise?
Elena-2011 [213]
You don’t get the treatment you need. You get the wrong treatment. Wrong medication that requires the brain. If you go to a doctor and say “I’m anxious” they will give you Xanax and antidepressants when what you really need is a calmer state of mind that can be retained through meditation or healthier more holistic approaches. If your doctor asks if you smoke weed, use tobacco or drink alcohol and you are too afraid to say yes (even though it’s confidential) and they prescribe you something, they can have negative side affects with the alcohol and other chemicals you’re putting in your body
