Molecular models of ketone bodies, three water-soluble compounds produced as by-products when fatty acids are broken down for energy in the liver and kidney: acetone (upper left), acetoacetic acid (upper right), and beta-hydroxybutyric acid(below). They are a source of energy for the heart and brai n. Carbon = black, hydrogen = white, oxygen = red.
