SCIENCE BEHIND
WHAT ARE KETONES

Ketones, The Feel Good Energy

Ketones are your body’s built-in superfuel. Your liver makes ketone molecules when carbs run low, like during fasting, long workouts, or a keto diet.

Ketones deliver more energy per unit of oxygen than glucose, making them the most efficient fuel your cells can use.
It's like my brain has the energy of coffee with the calmness of meditation. There's nothing like it.

THE PROBLEM

Ketones are a natural fuel your body already produces. For decades, ketones were locked away, only accessible through extreme fasting or restrictive diets. Scientists and elite performers knew them as the body’s most efficient fuel, but they were impossible to access on demand.

KETONE BENEFITS
The Science Behind
Ketone's Feel Good Energy
Studies show that raising ketone levels with Ketone-IQ supports both body and brain.

Crosses the blood brain barrier

Your brain is protected by the blood-brain barrier, a highly selective gateway that only allows trusted molecules through.

1

Ketone-IQ raises blood BHB (beta-hydroxybutyrate), a ketone your brain can use directly for energy, just like glucose.

2

Your brain often prefers ketones over glucose when they’re available, especially during deep focus, fasting, or low-carb states.

Stabilizes brain networks

Your neurons need clean connections to fire at their best, ketones help keep them on track.

1

Ketones reduce oxidative stress and help different regions of the brain stay connected, supporting clarity, memory, and faster processing.

2

Improved mitochondrial function supports long-term brain clarity and cognitive performance.

Improves Mitochondrial Efficiency

Inside every muscle cell, your mitochondria are working overtime.

1

Ketone-IQ improves mitochondrial efficiency, helping your cells produce more energy per molecule of oxygen.

2

More efficient oxygen use = more cellular power = better performance.

What’s in it?

Only one active ingredient: ketones, an ultra-efficient source of energy for your brain and body.

The natural ketones in Ketone-IQ® are made through a sustainable fermentation process. Think: high-tech, non-GMO kombucha!

Refer to the product page for the complete list of ingredients for each format and flavor.

Directions: Take a shot whenever you want to re-energize. We take it:

  • every morning to start the day right,
  • to get into flow at work,
  • before, during, and after hitting the gym,
  • to power past the afternoon slump without resorting to coffee…
you name it!

We recommend taking 1–3 servings daily. Some people like to spread it across the day, and some take double or triple shots at once for an extra boost.

Best when chilled. Refrigerate after opening.
