Breakthrough New Ketone Supplement!

A Breakthrough New Ketone Supplement For the last two years I have been living and breathing everything keto, and also reading every book and research out there about ketosis and the benefits of keto adaptation. I have also assisted many conferences, and it was last year at AHS14 that I met Dr. DiAgostino. Dr. DiAgostino is one of the leading researches working with cancer and ketosis at the University of South Florida. Is also one of the first researchers to study the effects of exogenous ketone supplementation. He is the first person who talked to me about ketone supplements, and he really spiked my curiosity, mentioning all the amazing benefits of supplementing with BHB. Here is a great article that explains more about his work. So I decided to try a ketone supplement on myself. Unfortunately what was on the market a year ago was a very unpalatable pure ketone salt (KetoForce), which worked on elevating my ketosis but also gave me very bad stomach upset and nausea. Needless to say I did not continue taking it, and forgot all about ketone supplements. A quick look at ketones and how they work. As you might already know ketones are metabolites with cellular structure quite similar to glucose and they are produced in the liver out of fatty acids, in order to feed the body with energy, when glucose is low or absent. That is why ketosis is induced by restricting carbs and not by adding fat to your diet!! Unfortunately not every body is equally able to convert fat into ketones or getting in ketosis would be much easier! In my clinical experience I learned that every time your liver is not functioning perfectly or is congested, you will have a harder time producing those desired ketones and keeping a high level of nutritional ketosis. That is why weight loss stalls and you Continue reading >>

Which Ketone Supplement Should You Use?

Searching for a Ketone Supplement can be challenging if you don’t know what you need. Sure, you know you want an efficient way to get into Ketosis, but is there more than one way to do so? More importantly, which ketone supplement works best for situation and taste pallet? It’s also important to know which Exogenous Ketone supplements will actually work. The world of supplementation is full of snake oil salesmen, keen to providing a “miracle cure” to all of your nutritional needs. Because of this, we’re going to break down some of the leading ketone supplements for you, and dissect their benefits, and if any, their weaknesses/drawbacks. It’s important to state that these supplements alone will not allow you to live a Ketogenic lifestyle. Nutritional Ketosis is the base of everything else you try while living the Keto lifestyle; it’s useless to use ketone supplements if you’re loading your face with carbs and sugars, because you’re missing the benefit of the true fat burning experience. So with that caveat out of the way, let’s move into why you would want to use a Ketone Supplement. Energy for “on-the-go” One of the more difficult parts of any diet is applying its demands regularly to food preparation. The Ketogenic Diet requires you to cook with only certain types of ingredients, and eat only certain kind of foods; but what if you wake up late and don’t have time to make your loaded Keto omelet? This is where one of the convenience benefits come into play: by takng a Ketone Supplement on your way to work, you’re providing your body with energy, while also suppressing your appetite to ensure you won’t show up to work jonesing for the office junk food. The perceived “magic” of ketones to satiate appetite comes from what scientists call a Continue reading >>

Ketogenic Supplements Reviews Fast & Safe Keto Products For Weight Loss

Ketogenic supplements are taking the world by storm and the right product can steady the balance of fats that your body needs to get your body into that state of ketosis. Those of you who have tried this form of weight loss before are probably more than aware of how hard it can be to first get your body to adapt to such a dramatic change in your daily intake of food, let alone without the help of a single exogenous ketone supplement. And the situation isn’t made any easier if you use a poor quality ketosis supplement because the wrong product may actually do you more harm than good. Bad quality ketosis supplements, have proven to lead to side-effects such as constipation and increased levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in men and women may also experience amenorrhea or other disruptions to the menstrual cycle. This is why it is really important to know what combination of compounds you are consuming, particularly while you are on this very strict diet, because the wrong balance can really mess with you in the long term. DO YOUR RESEARCH. I can't stress this point enough. This lifestyle change isn't for the faint hearted and you can't just wing it. It's a calculated exercise, which can lead to so many benefits. Check out the rest of this article so you can get up to speed, on how everything works and what powder or pill are actually out there and when you're finished go deeper and read our articles on the science behind this fascinating and our reviews on the best mix of exogenous ketone supplements out there in the market. Because without the knowledge and the right information, you'll never reach your goals and you may as well just keep eating that mash potato for dinner and club sandwich for lunch. Believe me, I stumbled onto this trend before it even blew up a Continue reading >>

Episode 9 – Amy Berger’s New Book “the Alzheimer’s Antidote”, Gluconeogenesis And Exogenous Ketones

Short summary: In her new book “The Alzheimer’s Antidote”, Amy Berger explains how improving one’s metabolism through a well-formulated low-carb high-fat diet is a worthwhile strategy to manage the disease. We then discuss how ‘excess protein’ is an overblown concern when it comes keeping adequately low blood sugar by not excessively stimulating gluconeogenesis. Lastly, we discuss the right and wrong reasons to sell and use exogenous ketones. Show notes: We first discuss Amy Berger’s background as a registered dietician, her foray into low-carb with Dr.Atkin’s 1992 weight-loss book and how she transformed her Master’s thesis on Alzheimer’s into an eBook which caught the eye of publishers, eventually turning it into “The Alzheimer’s Antidote”. The significance of disturbed glucose metabolism in brain cells thought to explain much of Alzheimer’s pathology is discussed The inconsistencies and missing observations of the Amyloid Cascade Hypothesis in explaining the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s diseases is discussed as well as how it may be refined or replaced in the near future The importance of lifestyle factors in preventing and managing this disease is highlighted by referring to Dr.Bredesen’s research Alzheimer’s is often referred to as type 3 diabetes (or diabetes of the brain) since Dr.de la Monte coined the term and why this matters After discussing Alzheimer’s disease, Amy and I talk about how gluconeogenesis is affected by dietary protein, how much is ‘too much’ protein, why fears of excessive protein are nearly always overblown, and how gluconeogenesis is related to the release of fat from fat cells Lastly, Amy and I talk about the right and wrong reasons to use and sell ketones – a subject that is quite controversial wi Continue reading >>

Which Ketone Supplement Works Best: Ketone Salts Vs. Ketone Esters With Dr. Dominic D’agostino.

Click here for the full written transcript of this podcast episode. A few months ago, I recorded a highly controversial ketosis interview with Dr. Richard Veech, in which Dr. Veech claimed that the form of ketones most people take to get into ketosis (ketone salts) are actually quite dangerous. Dr. Veech’s solution was something called “ketone esters“, which are extremely expensive, but, according to him, a far more natural, safe and healthy way to quickly get the body into ketosis – for anything from managing medical conditions, to improving cognition, to increasing endurance and beyond. In the video below, I actually experimented with these spendy ketone esters myself and, as you can see, the results were astounding… After shooting this video, I took another bottle of ketone esters to a Tough Mudder event and recorded a crazy video on Snapchat during which I elevated both blood glucose by drinking 75 grams of pure glucose and elevated blood ketones by drinking a bottle of the ketone esters, and the results were equally as astounding, resulting in one of the fastest races of my life. But the question remains: are these fancy, expensive ketone esters actually far better than ketone salts? Are ketone salts, which is what most people use, actually going to result in long term health issues? In today’s podcast, I bring on ketosis expert Dr. Dominic D’Agostino to get his opinion. Dominic is an Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine. He is also a Visiting Senior Research Scientist at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC). His laboratory develops and tests nutritional strategies and metabolic-based supplements for neurological disorders, cancer i Continue reading >>

My Experience With Exogenous Ketones

Last year I wrote a couple of posts on the nuances and complexities of ketosis, with an emphasis on nutritional ketosis (but some discussion of other states of ketosis—starvation ketosis and diabetic ketoacidosis, or DKA). To understand this post, you’ll want to at least be familiar with the ideas in those posts, which can be found here and here. In the second of these posts I discuss the Delta G implications of the body using ketones (specifically, beta-hydroxybutyrate, or BHB, and acetoacetate, or AcAc) for ATP generation, instead of glucose and free fatty acid (FFA). At the time I wrote that post I was particularly (read: personally) interested in the Delta G arbitrage. Stated simply, per unit of carbon, utilization of BHB offers more ATP for the same amount of oxygen consumption (as corollary, generation of the same amount of ATP requires less oxygen consumption, when compared to glucose or FFA). I also concluded that post by discussing the possibility of testing this (theoretical) idea in a real person, with the help of exogenous (i.e., synthetic) ketones. I have seen this effect in (unpublished) data in world class athletes not on a ketogenic diet who have supplemented with exogenous ketones (more on that, below). Case after case showed a small, but significant increase in sub-threshold performance (as an example, efforts longer than about 4 minutes all-out). So I decided to find out for myself if ketones could, indeed, offer up the same amount of usable energy with less oxygen consumption. Some housekeeping issues before getting into it. This is a self-experiment, not real “data”—“N of 1” stuff is suggestive, but it prevents the use of nifty little things likes error bars and p-values. Please don’t over interpret these results. My reason for shari Continue reading >>

Ketone Ester Review: What Are They, And Do They Work?

It's an exciting day at the KetoConnect household! We finally got our hands on the first commercially available ketone ester! The only company currently making this stuff is KetoneAid and they were nice enough to send us a sample to try for ourselves. We have tried most of the exogenous ketone supplements on the market and have not been impressed, but this is something completely different. Exogenous Ketones - Salts VS Esters The difference is night and day. When supplementing with the current BHB Salts on the market the impact is negligible. Often I will feel absolutely nothing, where other times I will notice a small benefit in energy and focus. It turns out this is due to the small dose that all BHB Salts deliver. There is an upper limit to how much you can consume at a given time because the ketones are binded to a salt such as sodium, potassium or magnesium. Ketone Esters on the other hand have no limit. You can consume exponentially more at a given time, which leads to a dramatic increase in benefits. The difference is rather astonishing and has completely reversed my thoughts on supplementing ketones and the future of the ketone supplement market. The Taste - Yes...It's That Bad! While the taste is much improved from the original iteration of these ketone esters, it's still pretty terrible. I'd describe it as a mix between rubbing alcohol and what I imagine toilet cleaner would taste like, with a squeeze of lemon. I'm sure this will continue to improve over time, and while it is terrible I don't feel it makes the supplement too prohibitive. It's easy to justify a few minutes of discomfort for hours of increased productivity. We Monitored Our Ketone and Glucose Levels After choking down our respective drinks, we started monitoring our blood ketone and glucose leve Continue reading >>

Best Exogenous Ketone Supplements

Exogenous ketones are a very new and exciting health food supplement that offers numerous health benefits to those who use them regularly. They’ve only been on the market since 2014, but ketones themselves have been studied extensively throughout the last several decades. Ketones are made in the liver from stored fat cells, providing us with energy in times when the body doesn’t have available glucose or “glycogen” to burn. Examples include when you’re pushing the body hard physically and burn off all your stored sugar energy (glycogen/blood glucose), or during times of famine when food is scarce. Exogenous ketones are exactly the same as ketones as far as the body is concerned. “Exogenous” simply means that the ketones are derived from sources outside the body, whereas ketones manufactured by the liver from fat stores are referred to as “endogenous” ketones. The Human Body Isn’t Meant to Run on Sugar All the Time Ketones are now recognized by science as the preferred energy source for both the brain and heart, while our biological power-source inside the body, the mitochondria, also thrive when fueled by ketone bodies instead of glucose. Mitochondria are the sole driving force behind aging in the body, as they help kill aged and/or malformed cells (eg., cancer), form new healthy cells, and in general help keep the body vital and full of energy. Several studies where exogenous ketones have been administered show boundless improvements in athletic performance, cancer treatment, Alzheimer’s, dementia, inflammatory diseases, and genetic disorders of all kinds. Exogenous ketones aren’t to be compared with the hyped-up raspberry ketones that are so popular for weight loss these days. Raspberry ketones are somewhat similar on a molecular level, but are Continue reading >>

Keto Os Charged Exogenous Ketones | Prüvit In Packets With Caffeine (30)

Opiniones de clientes A 495 personas les ha parecido esto útil. First, the good: Tastes decent. Now, the main reason I wanted to review this is that Pruvit and other ketone manufacturers are pulling the wool over your heads by conflating research on ketosis with taking ketones, which is completely different due to the difference in biochemical pathways of exogenous ketones verses endogenous ketones produced by being in a natural ketonic state. The data behind dietary ketosis is very good, but I didn’t like what I saw in the data regarding exogenous ketones. While naturally induced ketosis does cause an increase in fat used for fuel (due to the absence of dietary fuel – think carbs/glucose - needed to enter a state of ketosis), the data on exogenous ketone consumption (such as taking KetoOS) shows consistently that taking in exogenous ketones actually *halts* lipolysis and causes circulating glucose and fatty acids to be stored until the exogenous ketones have been used up as fuel. The exogenous ketones did have a benefit of mildly increasing energy and slightly increasing cognitive function due to the more immediate availability of fuel for the brain, but the negative feedback on lipolysis and suppression of hepatic glycogen use was disappointing. Also, one thing that alarmed me quite a bit more was that exogenous ketones caused a nearly doubled increase in blood insulin levels, because with the presence of exogenous ketones, the body has to facilitate the clearance of the circulating glucose not being used as fuel by sharply increasing insulin. That could be good or bad, depending on one’s goals I suppose: On one hand, insulin is very anabolic and could contribute to muscle gains, on the other, excessive blood insulin can lead to insulin resistance and fat stora Continue reading >>

Are Exogenous Ketones Right For You?

I’ve spent a lot of time lately analysing three thousand ketone vs. glucose data points trying to determine the optimal ketone and blood sugar levels for weight loss, diabetes management, athletic performance and longevity. In this article, I share my insights and learnings on the benefits, side effects and risks of endogenous and endogenous ketosis. But first, I think it’s important to understand the difference between exogenous and endogenous ketosis: Endogenous ketosis occurs when we go without food for a significant period. Our insulin levels drop, and we transition to burning body fat and ketones in our blood rise. Exogenous ketosis occurs when we drink exogenous ketones or consume a ketogenic diet. Ketones are important. As blood glucose decreases, the ketones in your blood increase to keep our energy levels stable. The chart below shows three thousand blood glucose vs ketone values measured at the same time from a range of people following a low carbohydrate or ketogenic diet. While there is generally a linear relationship between glucose and ketones, each person has a unique relationship between their blood glucose and ketone values that provide a unique insight into a particular person’s metabolic health. Hyperinsulinemia has been called as the “unifying theory of chronic disease” [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. It’s beneficial to understand where you stand on the spectrum of metabolic health and insulin sensitivity. The chart below shows the typical relationship between blood glucose and blood ketone for a range of different degrees of insulin resistance/sensitivity. If your blood glucose levels are consistently high it’s likely you are not metabolising carbohydrate well. When you go without food, endogenous ketones are slow to kick in because your insulin Continue reading >>

Exogenous Ketones Reviews 2017 – A Key Supplement For The Ketogenic Diet?

There is no denying that ketones and the ketogenic diet are all the rave right now across fitness forums and the rest of the world. This goes doubly true for those on a ketogenic diet and those who are looking to key in on the fat-burning benefits of ketosis. But, what are these “ketones” that everyone seems nuts over right now? Is there any truth to the huge fat-burning benefits they can supposedly bring? Furthermore, what are the advantages of working with “exogenous ketones,” and where, exactly, do the fit in with all of this? Below we’ll take a more detailed look at some of the key components of the ketogenic diet, and why so many people are utilizing supplements like exogenous ketones to help them with the process. What Are They? Let’s start with an easy one! Exogenous ketones are a hot new product fresh on the health and fitness market that can be used for various applications related to the process of ketosis, which is most often associated with the ketogenic diet. From enhancing physical performance, burning fat as well as reducing the symptoms of ketosis the benefits of supplementing with ketones numerous. We’ve detailed a couple of good ketone supplements here on TheDietDynamo.com – KetoCaNa, and KetoForce, so if you’re looking for two reputable products, I would start there. But wait, what is Ketosis? For those who are new to the subject, ketosis is a natural metabolic state where the body prefers to use ketones as a fuel rather than the regular glucose which is transformed from carb intake. This metabolic state can be especially effective in reaching your fitness goals, helping burn fat, and building that lean, muscular look so many of us are striving for. You should know that there are different ketones produced by the body in the absence Continue reading >>
