Keto Support Formula

The ketogenic metabolic state fundamentally alters cellular fuel utilization, shifting from glucose to ketone bodies as the primary energy source. Our Keto Support Formula provides exogenous beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) salts that can elevate blood ketone levels to 0.5-1.5 mmol/L within 30-60 minutes, effectively bridging the gap during ketogenic adaptation. BHB provides 25% more ATP per molecule than glucose while reducing reactive oxygen species production, offering superior cellular energy with less oxidative stress.

The calcium and sodium BHB salts in our formula serve dual purposes: delivering ketones while maintaining electrolyte balance critical during ketosis. This helps prevent common 'keto flu' symptoms including fatigue, headaches, and muscle cramps that occur from electrolyte depletion. Research demonstrates that exogenous ketones can suppress appetite through ghrelin modulation, reduce inflammation via NLRP3 inflammasome inhibition, and enhance cognitive function by providing an alternative fuel source for neurons.

Clinical studies show BHB supplementation improves metabolic flexibility, allowing easier transitions between fed and fasted states. Athletes using exogenous ketones report 15-20% improvements in endurance performance through glycogen sparing effects. The neuroprotective benefits include enhanced BDNF production, reduced neuroinflammation, and improved mitochondrial biogenesis. Regular supplementation supports sustained ketosis even with moderate carbohydrate intake, making the ketogenic lifestyle more sustainable and effective.
