The Role of Exogenous Ketones in Road Cycling: Evidence, Mechanisms, and Performance Claims

open access: yesPhysiologia
Background: Ketone body supplementation has emerged as a potential ergogenic aid in cycling. Exogenous ketones, primarily in the form of beta-hydroxybutyrate, offer an alternative fuel source, bypassing the need for strict ketogenic diets.

Ketone Administration for Seizure Disorders: History and Rationale for Ketone Esters and Metabolic Alternatives

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate treatment for medically intractable epilepsy. One of the hallmark features of the KD is the production of ketone bodies which have long been believed, but not yet proven, to exert direct anti ...

Starvation of Cancer via Induced Ketogenesis and Severe Hypoglycemia

open access: yes, 2014
Neoplasms are highly dependent on glucose as their substrate for energy production and are generally not able to catabolize other fuel sources such as ketones and fatty acids.

Ketone Bodies, Potential Therapeutic Uses [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2001
AbstractKetosis, meaning elevation of D‐ β‐hydroxybutyrate ( R ‐3‐hydroxybutyrate) and acetoacetate, has been central to starving man's survival by providing nonglucose substrate to his evolutionarily hypertrophied brain, sparing muscle from destruction for glucose synthesis.

Ketone Bodies Inhibit the Opening of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels (ASICs) in Rat Hippocampal Excitatory Neurons in vitro

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Objectives: Despite the long-term efficacy of antiepileptic drug treatments, frequent attacks of drug-resistant epilepsy necessitate the development of new antiepileptic drug therapy targets.

Impact of ketogenic diet and ketone diester supplementation on body weight, blood glucose, and ketones in Sprague Dawley rats fed over two weeks

open access: yesFood Chemistry: Molecular Sciences, 2021
Ketogenic diets consist of low carbohydrate/high fat, shifting energy reliance from glucose to ketone bodies. Ketone diester supplement to a standard diet (ketone ester) increases ketone bodies by adding a substance without altering other consumed foods.

Diminished ketone interconversion, hepatic TCA cycle flux, and glucose production in D-β-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase hepatocyte-deficient mice

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2021
Objective: Throughout the last decade, interest has intensified in intermittent fasting, ketogenic diets, and exogenous ketone therapies as prospective health-promoting, therapeutic, and performance-enhancing agents.

Ketogenic diet-induced weight loss is associated with an increase in vitamin d levels in obese adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Vitamin D is an important micronutrient involved in several processes. Evidence has shown a strong association between hypovitaminosis D and cardio-metabolic diseases, including obesity.

Determination of 14C radioactivity in ketone bodies: a new, simplified method and its validation.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1980
A rapid and reproducible method for the assay of 14C radioactivity in ketone bodies is described, based on the heat lability of acetoacetate and the ability of beta-hydroxybutyrate to quantitatively bind to and elute from an ion exchange resin. Potential

Metabolic Effects of the Very-Low-Carbohydrate Diets: Misunderstood "Villains" of Human Metabolism

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2004
During very low carbohydrate intake, the regulated and controlled production of ketone bodies causes a harmless physiological state known as dietary ketosis. Ketone bodies flow from the liver to extra-hepatic tissues (e.g., brain) for use as a fuel; this
