Animal nutrition is based on the supply of fibrous and concentrated diets to provide the physiological requirements of animals and ensure the development of the herd. The use of concentrates on the diet is an option to provide the energy necessary for animal production, however, the incorrect use of nutrients can cause metabolic disorders to the animals. Among the main disorders, acidosis and ruminal ketosis stand out. Considering the consequences of metabolic disorders to animals and the economic losses to producers, this review aimed to perform both a clinical, laboratory and therapeutic analysis of ruminal acidosis and ketosis. A survey was made based on the CAPES Journal Portal using the PubMed, Scielo, Elsevier, and Google Scholar databases. A total of 61 articles were selected, without delimitation of year of publication, in order to identify in the literature the evolution of metabolic diseases and the use of methods applied on laboratory diagnosis. The study allowed both the understanding and evaluation of the methods, the impacts and the importance of clinical and laboratory diagnosis of these metabolic disorders to promote therapeutics, animal health and reduction of losses to the agricultural industry.
