“Researchers are studying whether consumption of the exogenous ketone ester, beta-hydroxybutyrate, may confer some of the health advantages of a ketogenic diet through its activation of PPAR-alpha, a key enzyme in the fasting response. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin describes how supplementing with exogenous ketone esters may confer some of the beneficial effects of the ketogenic diet.”

“How can I increase butyrate/BHB while fasting or eating a ketogenic diet? Consuming an exogenous ketone supplement increases serum concentrations of BHB; however, these supplements can have a very unpleasant smell/taste.”

“Fasting and exogenous ketones offer two different ways to influence energy metabolism. An overnight fast gradually increases fatty-acid use and ketone production, while ketone esters and salts can raise circulating beta-hydroxybutyrate more rapidly.”

Beta-glucan versus psyllium for lowering LDL, PFAS reduction, creatine and caffeine, urolithin A, exogenous ketones, IVF, Botox, and sauna.

“Although exogenous ketones provide a ready source of energy, their use might interfere with weight loss. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick describes the effects of endogenous ketones on fat metabolism during a fast.”

“But exogenous ketones may act to preserve performance and resilience in extreme environments, such as hypoxia. For example, there could be a rationale for using ketones to augment performance for people who are mountain climbing, running, or cycling.”

“It is crucial to maintain proper electrolyte balance when following a lifestyle ketogenic diet. Consuming exogenous ketones in the form of ketone salts can supply the body with some of the electrolytes it needs.”

“Exogenous ketone supplements can augment a lifestyle ketogenic diet. As an alternative energy source for the brain, ketones stave off hunger when blood glucose levels are low, for example, during a calorie-restricted weight loss diet.”

“Nutritional ketosis may benefit some neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression and anorexia nervosa. Furthermore, there is strong scientific rationale for the ketogenic diet and exogenous ketones in managing migraine headaches.”
