  • The Truth about Ketones for Cycling.
    Hello, lovely people! Today, I've got something exciting to try out over the next few months - the new kid on the block of cycling nutrition - Ketones. In this video I’m going to run you through WTF are ketones, the pros and cons as well as what the current scientific research shows.

    Hello Kiera. I am currently reading a book that says anemia does not exist. It is a copper deficiency. As copper is needed to load iron. Without copper we will be constantly tired, fatigued. The book is called “Cure your fatigue” by Morley M. Robbins.

    Cheers for the videos, and always interesting to hear your thoughts on new developments in cycling!
    But please make sure that when you discuss the results, it is always in the context of the cost/value of them and not just about performance changes.
    ... I'd luv to get another 5-10-20 watts / 2-3 Kph / whatever increase on my rides... but if it effectively costs me the equivalent of £20-30-50 for each time I'm out on my bike (assuming I ride 3-4 times per week or something like that!), then I'm really not interested 😟 If it's £5-10 /month, where do I sign 😆)
    P.S. As the others have written, please throw that Lav Mic in a bin and get one that doesn't sounds like you are inside a cardboard box 🤪

      Looks like they are about $4 per serving if you do not choose to do the monthly subscription, but still over the course of a year, it amounts to a ton of money. I'd probably rather spend that cash on a cycling trip somewhere to enjoy some new roads and a sense of exploration.

      Yeah totally! Cost vs actual gain will be compared… also about the mic… I tried a thing… it didn’t work 😂

    Nice video explaining some of the research and effect of ketones on our bodies. Just to be correct, acidic compounds in your blood decrease the pH, not increase it. I feel in his research the reason of the pH increasing in the blood is rather due to the increase in sodium bicarbonate intake, which is a basic compound, and not so much the keton intake. does that make sense?

    Well... Nail polish-like flavour, since it actually is nail polish! Not exactly of course, nail polish is usually acetone which is a type of ketone.

    A guy reviewed this after taking it for a bit, and said his gas was lethal. Cleared a 60 passenger bus with 1 emission. Good luck.

    The channel “Road Bike Culture” explores, in a video from 2019, the ketogenic “lifestyle”, check it out. The UA-camr is a physician. In my opinion and experience, ketone (specially exogenous) only makes sense in a ketogenic diet (“diet” obviously in the sense of what eat to live well, not just for weight loss). btw, as a curious cyclist you should try serious ketosis!

    Maybe you can make your own ketones by following a Ketogenic diet. You'll burn fat instead of carbs and ketones will follow as a result?
