Correction: For the lemonade chugging contest at 2:20, the amount of sugar should be double. 1 gallon = 128 fl oz of lemonade = 336g sugar 🤯

Anyone see any mood benefits on the keto diet ? What about just going carnivore ?

[johntatman]

It would seem that eating a keto or carnivore diet would give similar results.

Can you take ketones under pregnancy and during breastfeeding?

How dose this product affect older cyclist or age is not a factor ? I am currently taking Nitric Oxide supplements to help with improvement of eudurance while I am riding my bike. If taking both products, would there be any side affects or spike up Heart Rates ?

I'd love to try your Ketone IQ product, but I don't want to spend $120 just to try it.

If you believe in it, why not make a single bottle available? If people like it they'll step up to the three pack or even a case, if you offer it.

Why do I read that the brain can only use glucose for fuel?

[davepaul]

What is the deal with showing the power point screen approximately one ninth of my screen? Definitely can not see the details. POOR POOR POOR

We are ‘messing’ with Mother Nature, I hope there are significantly more studies to verify safety.

I love ketones, god talk
But what have mushrooms and NASA with keto, only make the talk Fancy

[mattm]

I do so much better on a keto/carnivore diet on my body can utilize ketones for energy, other than just sugar and carbohydrates

[Ridicvideo]

Good one would love to use ketones for wound healing.

According to its principle, this drug is no better than hormone injections. When commerce intervenes, don't expect good results.

I believe this guy used negative/positive feedback loops in the wrong way. The context I learned it from told me negative feedback loops means damping down the intensity, while positive feedback loops mean enhancing the intensity, but what this guy used I believe it was using the result as positive or negative instead.

This guy talks like a used car salesman. Just saying….

I eat a 39 cent potato and fuel my brain with glucose which is the preferred fuel. If I am in ketosis and eat a potato then if the brain preferred ketones it would avoid the glucose. Humans aren't efficient at de novo lipogenesis like cows and other animals, thus humans get fat by eating fat. Natural carbohydrates (complex carbs) like the potato are a must; never eat refined carbs (bad carbs).
