Wie exogene Ketone wirken

Exogenous ketones are a supplement form of ketones designed to raise blood ketone levels temporarily. They are often marketed to support mental clarity, energy, and adaptation to a ketogenic diet.

The basics of ketosis

Ketosis is a metabolic state where your body uses ketones—produced from stored fat—as a primary fuel source instead of glucose.

Forms of exogenous ketones

• BHB salts — Beta-hydroxybutyrate bound to minerals.
• Ketone esters — Faster absorption, strong taste.

How they work

When consumed, exogenous ketones raise circulating BHB levels within minutes to an hour, mimicking some effects of nutritional ketosis without the full diet shift.
