It would be ketones. The goal of keto diet is for your body to deplete all glucose stores in your body for ketogenesis. Your body will naturally look for an alternative energy source, proteins being the next easiest source of energy. However, your body doesn't want that to happen (as it recognizes it to mean you are in danger of starvation), and it will convert body fat and fatty acids from consumed fats into ketones. This is because fat cannot fuel the most important cells in your body - your brain cells.
