Is there a best time to take Exogenous Ketones while fasting? (i.e. taking exogenous ketones towards the end of a fast over the beginning or middle)

[vickiewestbrooks]

Hi Dr. Gustin, so I've been doing a Keto Green diet for about 3 weeks but I am not in Ketosis or Alkaline, like I'm supposed to be. I am aiming for F-93 grams, Protein 60-75 grams & Carbs 25-30 grams per day. Usually about 1300 calories a day (around that). When you say "fast" do you mean water fast or fat fast. I know a water fast you are supposed to be able to have coffee, herbal/green tea on that. I've done a fat fast before with a really good result. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong and frustrated. I bought some exogenous ketones today to try. Just need your answer and more exercise each day. Thank you for your excellent video's and advise.

How long should you fast? I've been doing 12 hour intermittent fasting is that enough or should I increase it?

How long do I have to fast for? And would I have to fast every day?

I am a fan of Callogen advertised by Perfect Keto. My issue is with Exogenous ketones: i think they make you thirsty. Not so sure if they may affect kidneys? Why don’t we just rely on out bodies to produce Ketons?

[RealLifeResilience]

I thought that exogenous ketones weren't good unless you're already in ketosis? Can you help explain the correct answer? Thanks!

I drink my morning coffee with grass fed butter and perfect keto mct oil powder chocolate will this work just as well as -Exogenous ketones? Also will this break my fast if I stop eating a 7:pm and have my coffee around 8 am?

How long do you recommend to fast? Will a 16/8 be good? I did horribly over the holidays and I need help!!😩

[dreaminginnoother]

So exogenous ketones do kickstart ketosis? I hear so much conflicting stuff on this. How about mct?

[daviddorci]

Will you get into ketosis with a16/8 fast? Or a 5/2 keto diet?
