Question : What is the reason for presence of Ketones even with low BG ? Appreciate if you can explain or point some info

It’s starvation ketones, will need to eat carb and take fluids to get rid of that ketones. This type ketone can also be seen in normal people without diabetes if they go starving for long time.
