Does that mean you do good by your brain when you do a hard burn exercise once in a while ? After all those substances are a byproduct of burning fat instead of glucose by your liver. Or do i need a fat rich feast ?
- iamacyborg 2y ago> Does that mean you do good by your brain when you do a hard burn exercise once in a while ? There's a whole bunch of stuff happening in your body post strenuous exercise so it'd be hard to isolate ketones specifically from that.
- layla5alive 2y agoBut yes, exercise is very good for the brain.
- aszantu 2y agoeat as much fat as you want, just leave out the carbs and sugar
- iamacyborg 2y agoOr just take a ketone supplement and eat normal food.
- sgonz 2y agoHas any research been done on what happens when the body is in a state of high glucose and ketones at the same time?
- iamacyborg 2y agoNot that I’m aware of but a number of professional cycling teams have been using them for a few years so there may be something in the works.
- layla5alive 2y agoKetoacidosis.
- iamacyborg 2y agoI don't think elite cycling teams would be taking these supps if it caused that, do you?
- zarathustreal 2y agoI frankly don’t care what you believe, but I do care about the ability of the general population to understand reasoning and logic. To that end, please understand that what you’re arguing is not a counter-example like you seem to think it is. It’s an argumentum ad populum - you’re saying this must be true because elite cycling teams are doing it. This is not a proof. It’s not even evidence, you’re not even citing something specific enough to call it that. Again, believe what you want just make sure you understand that you’re not making a sound argument.
- iamacyborg 2y agoYou should probably look into the supplements I’m referring to before launching into a diatribe.
- zarathustreal 2y agoYou seem to think that would affect my statement. Pay attention to what I’m actually saying. I have no opinion on the supplement. It’s still invalid reasoning regardless of whether the supplement is effective.
- layla5alive 2y agoThe dose makes the poison.

- layla5alive 2y ago@sgonz That state results in ketoacidosis, which is fatal.
- croes 2y ago"The dose makes the poison"
- pjerem 2y agoTrue. But contrary to fats (or proteins or fibers), sugar is also addictive, doesn’t satiate your body, and ultimately generates hypoglycemia some hours later for you to eat more sugar. So yes, the dose makes the poison but sugar is the only one poison your body accepts to absorb in immense quantities.

- francisofascii 2y agoThis. It is hard overeat if your diet consists of fish, nuts, seeds, and olive oil.
- batperson 2y agoNuts, seeds and olive oil are all extremely high in calories.
- francisofascii 2y agoIt is not intuitive, but a diet high in fat will make you less fat than a diet of sugar and carbs. The calories in nuts are not all absorbed.
- EasyMark 2y agoThus they are very filling if you eat a reasonable amount and not a can of them. I eat them at meal time and not as snacks, it’s easy to forget how many times you’ve grabbed a pinch of them if you “snack” on them throughout the day. Nuts are very nutritive as well, unlike pretty much any other snack heavy in sugar/fat
- EasyMark 2y agoGood fats. Stay away from human manufactured fats like transfats like it’s your religion.
- kjksf 2y agoYour body starts producing ketons when you stop eating. Typically it starts 12 to 24 hrs. It'll start faster if you don't eat carbs / sugar and instead use protein because the body start producing ketons when it runs out of glycogen stores. Sugar and carbs add glucose to your blood. The less of it you have, the faster the body will start producing ketons. Exercise also helps because it uses glucose faster. Of course assuming you'll not just start eating carbs / sugar after exercise. That includes all drinks that include sugar. But really you'll get most benefit of exercise just from a walk after meal. Why after meal? Because that's when glucose spikes and a walk uses glucose faster.
- ericmcer 2y agoDon’t you produce ketones any time you can’t get enough energy from carbohydrates?
- EasyMark 2y agoYour body usually stores 1-2 days worth of “glucose” energy in the form of glycogen in muscle tissue and the liver
- dcow 2y agoYou have it backwards. Your liver can convert protein into glucose in a process called gluconeogenesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis
