Exogenous Ketones: Alternative Energy Source

Exogenous ketones, ketones produced externally and not by the body, provide a valuable energy source that can be selectively used to enhance health. While the body can create ketones in emergency situations by activating stress hormones, using exogenous ketones avoids the chronic stress hormone activation associated with endogenous ketone production. These external ketones, whether in the form of ketone esters or ketone salts, offer a powerful tool to improve health without the need for constant stress hormone activation.
