The objective of this study was to correlate normal body weight with urine ketones. When there is insufficient level of glucose in our body, body use fats as an alternate source of energy. The substance produced is known as ketones, this will be shown in our blood and urine. If the patients are diabetics, then urine contain ketones means we are not producing insulin. There is another condition in which we are not diabetics but can develop ketones. Life of a patient or an individual is highly affected by its weight. Cardiac vascular diseases are all due to the overweight than to normal. Pulmonary disorders are also the results of overweight. People were asked to collect their urine in a container and then we imposed the dipstick method and analyzed the results for the ketones in the urine and noted the readings of the people. A questionnaire was prepared and asked the people about weight and ketones presence in their urine. All the experiments were conducted when the persons were at normal conditions. None of them is using any medicines or certain kind of drugs. The data described us that there was not a scientific relationship between the human body weight and urine ketones. It was inferred that there was no relationship between the body weight and normal ketones in urine
