Before there was HVMN Ketone, there was the "Metabolic Dominance" program.
This program, initiated by DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), was spear-headed by Joe Bielitzki.
The goal?
To enable superior physical and physiological warfighter performance by controlling energy metabolism on demand.
The result?
15+ years of research that led to the creation of the world's first ketone ester.
Joe, who was also NASA's Chief Veterinary Officer, joins us this week to share a special, behind-the-scenes view of the ketone ester's deep history.
In this discussion, you'll discover:
- Why the other compounds Joe tested was not reaching the bar, and how he ended up with going with the ketone ester
- How DARPA executes on programs to improve soldier performance
- Ponder over how primal humans utilized ketosis, and why modern humans can benefit from this "ancient" fuel
