Your Brain on Ketones

https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/evolutionary-psychiatry/201104/your-brain-ketones

Ketone supplements allow for a rapid and controlled induction of physiologic ketosis without the need for fasting or severe dietary restrictions.

There is both theoretical and clinical evidence that administering ketones to patients may provide significant benefit.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3219306/

An expanding body of evidence indicates that ketone bodies are indeed neuroprotective and that the underlying mechanisms are similar to those associated with calorie restriction - specifically at the mitochondrial level.

Dual-fueling and sports supplements

The Ketogenic group out-performed those of the exercise and non-exercise groups.

Alternative fuel provision with BHB may improve endurance performance.

Supplemented BHB produces more ATP per unit carbon and per unit oxygen consumed than glycogen and fatty acids (FFA).

Acute nutritional ketosis (induced by taking exogenous ketones) alters substrate utilization patterns during exercise, reduces lactate production, and improves time-trial performance in elite cyclists.

It seems that our evolutionary response to energy crisis is hardwired to favour ketosis, and endurance exercise performance may be constrained by the same metabolic considerations.

Nutritional ketosis may help to unlock greater human metabolic potential.

These results may help to explain the metabolic adaptations following ketogenic diets, such as a better body fat control and improvement in serum lipid profile.

Ketosis achieved with exogenous ketone supplementation can reduce blood glucose.

Exogenous ketone drinks are a practical, efficacious way to achieve ketosis.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5670148/

Exogenous ketone supplementation casues a rapid and sustained elevation of βHB; a reduction of glucose; and little change to lipid biomarkers.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26855664

BHB supplements rapidly increase circulating ketones and, therefore, can be used as an acute model of ketosis.

How can ketogenesis and ketones treat inflammations?

Getting to Ketosis - An Anti-Inflammatory State

http://www.dynamicchiropractic.com/mpacms/dc/article.php?id=56853

Anti-inflammatory effects of the ketogenic diet may be linked to BHB.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25686106

Ketone bodies have been shown to suppress inflammation. It is thought that ketone bodies themselves confer many of the benefits associated with the KD.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4743170/

β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) reduces oxidative stress leading to reductions in inflammation.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5341812/

Ingestion of βHB (ketones) results in nutritional ketosis without necessitating restrictive dietary practices. Initial reports suggest this strategy alters the metabolic response to exercise and improves exercise performance and recovery from exercise.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27861911

We conclude that BHB (ketones) decreases leucine oxidation and promotes protein synthesis in human beings.
