β-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is one of the primary ketone bodies produced naturally in the liver during ketosis (fasting, low-carb dieting, or intense exercise). As an exogenous ketone supplement, BHB delivers immediate energy for the brain and body, bypassing glucose metabolism.
To improve its bioavailability, stability, and usability, BHB is bound to mineral salts—forming BHB salts such as BHB Ca, BHB Na, and BHB Mg. These compounds serve as dual-functional ingredients, delivering both ketones and essential electrolytes.
🚀 Boosts Ketone Levels – Promotes energy during low-carb diets or fasting
🧠 Enhances Mental Clarity – Rapid brain fuel that crosses the blood-brain barrier
💪 Improves Physical Endurance – Delays fatigue and supports muscle performance
🔥 Supports Fat Metabolism – Encourages fat oxidation and reduces reliance on glucose
🌱 Appetite & Craving Control – May help regulate hunger hormones (e.g., ghrelin)
