Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why individuals having nonketotic hypoglycemia are unable to undertake gluconeogenesis.
Concept introduction: Presence or absence of the ketosis is a significant cause for hypoglycemia in an individual. Absence of ketosis or nonketotic hypoglycemia often specifies excessive insulin as the cause of hypoglycemia. Non-ketotic hypoglycemia occurs due to the abnormalities in fatty acid oxidation and ketone body formation. It is an early indicator of carnitine deficiency.
