Etymology
Ketosis comes from ketone ('a chemical the body makes when it burns fat') plus the ending -osis ('a state' or 'condition'). A helpful way to remember this is acetone, the familiar smell from nail polish remover, which shares the 'ketone' root, so ketosis simply means the body is in the state of using ketones for energy.
