The consequence of incomplete oxidation is Fats. Incomplete oxidation of fatty acids causes a build-up of beta-hydroxybutyric and acetoactic acids (ketoacids), Can be detected in serum and urine. Corrects hyperglycemia by restoring insulin-sensitive glucose uptake Inhibits hepatic glucose output, Inhibits lipolysis, which eliminates substrates for ketogenesis (corrects ketoacidosis).
