    HVMN version is not the full ketone ester. Ketone IQ" is NOT a "Ketone Ester", it is non-ethanol alcohol, that is R-1,3-butanediol (R-1,3-BDO). Only Ketone Aid and DeltaG provide D-Beta Hydroxybutyrate (D-BHB) Ketone Ester. Those aren't the same at all in terms of physiological response. HVMN USED TO BE the full D-DHB ester, with DeltaG as their supplier. When the agreement ended, DeltaG started selling it under its own name. The full ester creates a much different outcome. The full esters are the ones typically reflected in clinical testing. Repeat this test with either KE4 or DeltaG.
    Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl is the first WT team to openly be sponsored by a Ketone Ester, and they use KE.

    Taking EPO results in performance gains, over baseline, irrespective of prior training or exercise, and is similar to blood doping. The way the data from the ketone body testing is presented suggests there wasn’t an increase in performance, there was a 15% decrease in loss of performance. This would appear to be a very important difference - just a lingering thought ;)

    I had taken part in a research study that was doing testing with ketones, specifically DeltaG. Had to do a few 20min all out efforts, 1 baseline, 1 placebo, and 1 with the real ketone supplement. My lowest performance was with the Keytone drink, mainly because it tasted so bad (may have been the worst thing I've ever tasted honestly) and did not sit well in my stomach, felt like if I pushed as hard as I normally did, I'd puke. Will be interesting to see the overall results of the study once results are published though.

    I'm glad you had Ellen on to emphasize that these are _exogenous_ ketones. As such they are quite different from naturally occurring endogenous ketones. The benefits of the former are much different and more limited that the latter. The man-made type _may_ have a function, but they are not the same as the body producing them as the byproduct of changing its metabolism, from carb-burning to fat-burning. But from a performance and recovery perspective, this technology is very provocative & interesting.

    • @Hill_Walker
      @Hill_Walker Před rokem +4

      It depends where on the incredibly complex metabolic reaction chains the ketones play a role and it's all speculation until it's peer reviewed and published.
      A contrary example to your argument would be vitamin D production in caucasians.
      If they've had minimal UV exposure for a long time and they're super pale. They will when exposed to UV produce more vitamin D. Overtime they will tan and find a new equilibrium of vitamin D yes. But, vitamin D production will still be much higher than when there was the minimal UV exposure.
      But again, this would be a different metabolic process so it would be foolish to speculate on what the actual long-term changes are, until it's peer reviewed and published.

    • @bruuhhhh

      @@Hill_Walker I would argue that's because vitamin D production without sunlight exposure is actually limited by the resource of sunlight, so if you were to go more extreme and put them in an extremely sunny environment there may be a transient increase but I think it would still generally balance out back to where it would be if they had a regular amount of exposure

      Hi Alex. I agree back to baseline, ie homeostasis, often occurs after ‘oral supplementation’ with metabolites. However, there would have to be studies to prove this is the case with this product, as due to the nature of ketone bodies and the oral intake route, there could be a potential to greatly alter the gut microbiome, either transiently or more long term.

    It’s always been suspected that Team Sky were the first to use ketones, although this was denied by certain pro riders and coaches. But looking back at various performances their advantages and that of other teams since seem questionable.
    Even Lance Armstrong questioned this back in 2019 on his Move podcast, which considering his history seems a bit ironic.🤔

      Seems to me something suspect is going on in the Pro Peleton these days. I remember Greg Lemond saying about the early nineties his figures were the same but he was going backward in the peloton. It appears something similar is happening now. Some of the performances demonstrated by members of a certain team in the last few TdF's look highly suspect and how is it that natural climbers are now struggling to win stages or that someone like Peter Sagan suddenly becomes un-competitive.
      It could be that Sky were the first to use ketones, who knows? We will never get the truth if they were. It looks to me though that another team has either learned to use them more effectively (if Sky has indeed used them) or is the first to do so or has found something else more effective. Hello Jumbo Visma.
      The irony about Armstrong is not lost on me and possibly there is a bit of bitterness there, but you would have thought that he knows what he is talking about. Following the Alpe D'Huez stage in his last tour his comments about Contador's performance that day were somewhat telling. Reading between the lines, with what we know now about Armstrong, he was saying "I have been well prepared (doped up) and yet been well beaten by someone. What's he on?" And were these comments wrong? I doubt it judging by Contador's dodgy history.

    Great video. You should check out Delta G Ketone. Thats the one predominantly used in the peloton. I know the guys at Delta G would gladly share their research with you in great detail. Delta G use the original ketone ester developed by Oxford Uni. HVMN used to but they can’t anymore and their new IQ ester is now a different type. Not all ketones are equal. Current studies on BHB ketones (Delta G) would indicate limited improvements to performance but up to 15% faster recovery by rapidly assisting in restoring muscle glycogen and reduced post race muscle atrophy. Notably when ingested alongside carbs, not instead of. As for the banned substance thing, it’s another form of energy, your bodies natural emergency supply when it goes into starvation. Nothing remotely like any banned substance. Arguably no difference for example to using caffeine, creatine or nitrite shots in terms of the need for it being on ‘the list.’ When all is said and done all the current science would indicate carbs are king for high energy cycling.

There is a medical field that deals in human nutrition and experts in this field are called dietitians - nutritionists are just random people, without a medical degree, that like to tell others what to do.

By the same token, a dietician may or may not have specific working knowledge when it comes to advising athletes on optimum intake. "nutritionist" may or may not be a trustworthy descriptor: you have to dig deeper to find out.

    Very interesting. I've watched the development of these. Professors Phinney and Volek have done some of the most extensive tests on athletes (particularly cyclists) in the state of ketosis. Yes, it takes a few months to get to a state of efficiency to be able to utilise it in exercise (in short the body needs to grow more mitochondira to use). It is definatley of benefit in low intensity endurance (audax/brevet) type riding but studies on racing is still being done. You can be pretty bonk proof! Using exogenous ketones (so drinking them) won't put your body into a state of ketosis but can have other advantages for brain function. Be interesting to see how you go with them.

There is no indication whatsoever that, "lol", "performance enhancer are one of the pilars of [present-day] cycling" (sic). The addition of no-one is (presently) talking about it, is 'begging the question'. So, where is your evidence that cycling (as a whole?) is built on PEDs. I.e., given the current facts and circumstances, the exact converse of your statement (to wit: PEDs are no longer an integral part of cycling) also may be very well true.

    Great show, but you don't need to eat carbs as we make it, which I'm sure you guys already know. How about doing a deep dive in to all the athletes that use Keto/Carnivore in their training and competition.

    Cut out your carbs gradually for 2 weeks to none for 2-3 days then do a 14 day water/electrolyte fast like I did at the end of 2022...on day 6 of zero food I went for a bike ride did 43km in 1hr 51m....Ketones that day were 8mmol/l .... (nutritional ketosis is regarded as between 1.5-3.0 mmol/l)... Yes you will never win a race (that I know of?) on "fat burning" but your body has months of food on it that most of us just keep adding to and rarely use up because constant carb eating means insulin is produced and that turns off fat burning.... keto works for sure, and cutting down hugely (she said 50g, that's "low carb", you need to get down to 20g a day)turns off hunger like you wouldn't believe... Most compare fat burning as the reliable, low tuned diesel engine that purrs away on an almost endless source of fuel...and carb dependent (bike racing?!)fuelling is F1/jetfuel.... when you run out you crash and burn. Being able to switch between both (metabolic flexibility) is pretty critical..

      Pump his tyres full of water instead of air, realign his brake calipers if he's on discs so they rub and finally fill his water bottles with heavy water (it is safe to drink).
      Really you're just giving him training aides and making him fitter and healthier. You winning up the hill is just a benign bonus.
      All caring parents should take these steps, especially the heavy water one, super good value for money.

    As an overweight rider I'm doing a keto diet to lose weight as the low carb also helps with lowering my A1C and controlling my type 2 diabetes. You can also take MCT oil which is from coconuts to get ketone quickly. Ketogenic diet is great if your an endurance rider like going long distance cross country. This could have helped you and Justin on your crosscountry trip in USA.

You can go for hours on an empty stomach, no bonking, better performance etc. Safe as hell, and in fact much safer and healthier that the high-carb diets. Keto is the natural state of the human race, which was broken by the agricultural revolution. It's not us ketogenic who are "the exception" - it's you lot, the high-carb eaters. Get some good biochem & nutrition info, from real researchers who do real research, combine that with evolutionary aspects, and you'll be convinced.
