Understanding Ketones and Their Significance
Ketones are a vital energy source, especially when there is a shortage of carbohydrates. They are produced by the liver during periods of fasting or carbohydrate restriction and play a crucial role in energy metabolism. Increasing awareness about ketones is essential, as their benefits extend beyond weight loss and include cognitive function enhancement, longevity, and disease prevention. The exploration of ketone use highlights concepts such as metabolic flexibility, which is the ability to utilize both ketones and glucose efficiently.
