Sorry been away from the forum for ages. I'm a keto guy, been doing a ketogenic diet since the 90s under Dan Duchaine and then Lyle McDonald. No one loves keto more than me. Recently the new flavor of the month or MLM scams are these exogenous ketone products. Pat Arnold and Dr Dagastino are well respected in this area and have never made any claims that are not true about exogenous Ketones. The MLM companies selling*exogenous ketone products*on the other hand are full of ****.
Showing higher ketone readings on the ketostix means absolutely nothing. You are pissing out the products and getting a false positive. In addition ketosis does not = fat loss as many people easily gain fat in ketosis. Ketosis is the metabolic state where your body is using fat as its preferred fuel source, doesn't mean fat loss even though I get shredded on a ketogenic diet that is a result of reduced calories and increased cardio exercise. Ketogenic diet is easier for many to adhere too not any more effective than slow fat diet
Chasing Ketones is the worst thing you can do if fat loss is your goal.
Using*exogenous ketone products especially pre cardio can absolutely hinder your fat loss results. There are very good uses for*exogenous ketone products and the science is solid but fat loss is not necessarily one of them. *I can drink mct or coconut oil and show purple on the stix at a fraction of the cost of*exogenous ketone products and still gain fat. I can also get fat if I don't cut calories while in ketosis.
I also use blood ketone testing and can do cardio and double my ketone readings right after.
Exogenous ketone products are great pre workout, cycling, running events. Great for easing your transition Or adaptation into a ketogenic diet. I use them after a carb up to ease the transition back into ketosis not to speed up fat loss.
So my question is...what is in KetoInduce? Basically an *exogenous ketone product like KetoCana? Is there something else added that makes it better? I use so many EvoMuse products and love them but have questions about this product. Where is the evidence that higher ketone readings means fat loss?
Please please...I hope I'm not being out of line. I love Evomuse and Matt is a genius I just am puzzled about the use and claims of exo-ketones. I'd be happy to buy this product too if I can learn more...thanks!!!
