Start Your Keto Journey
ow Ketosis Fuels the Brain The human brain is an energy-intensive organ that primarily relies on glucose for fuel. However, in a ketogenic state, the brain efficiently utilizes ketones—particularly beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB)—as an alternative energy source. Research in The Journal of...

The Connection Between Ketosis and Immune Function Emerging research suggests that ketosis, the metabolic state achieved through the ketogenic diet, plays a key role in modulating immune function. A study published in Nature Immunology revealed that ketone bodies, particularly beta-hydroxybutyrate...
