Part of the entire Keto movement is the use of exogenous ketone supplements. One of the most sought after sources is the ketone ester. And the Veech Ketone Ester seems to be the most promising. PLUS On a previous show Carl suggested that the lock-down has led to a drastic reduction in carbon-dioxide emissions, and that drop is having an affect on our weather. Is he way off?

SHR # 2527 :: What is The Veech Ketone Ester PLUS A Meteorologist Answers Carl's Question
Show Notes:
[2:40] The general value of exogenous ketones.
- There are several of the same benefits of using a ketogenic diet..
- Exogenous ketones put you into a state of keotlysis and not necessarily true ketosis.
- They do not cause fat burning to take place.
[9:53] Exogenous ketones may indirectly help with weight loss by helping to extend a fast.
[11:21] Why are exogenous ketones not recommended for first time keto dieters?
- Electrolye shifts lead to a lot of water weight loss.
- Keto flu.
[17:21] Ketone salts vs ketone esters.
- Esters are much more efficient at delivery.
- The salts are racemic, meaning that the D-BHB and L-BHB configurations are present in the mixture.
- Ketonaid is ½ reduced BHB salt and ½ esters.
[35:56] Longevity study.
- Mice lived longer when carbs were lowered and ketones were administered.
[38:30] Ketones for sports performance.
- Ketones amplify the effect of caffeine.
[53:23] Mitigating harm from the vegan diet by using ketones.
[55:00] The ketone ester group was 15% faster on a Tour de France simulation.
- Ketone esters also provided sustained cognitive function in sprinters.
[58:35] What about ketones for those with early signs of dementia?
- Definitely don’t take too high of a dose, but they seem to fill that brain-energy gap.
- com code: SHR
[1:05:00] Meteorologist, Wyatt Everheart joins the show to discuss the reduced CO2 emissions.
- Reduced local smog.
- The “economic fat” is being trimmed.
- We can all agree that less pollution is a good thing.
