Ketones and Legal EPO, Cycling Recovery!

DeltaG’s Brian McMahon and I chat about the recent advances in understanding how Ketones can increase your EPO and make you faster. We cover recent studies published using DeltaG, why you may want to try ketones to make you faster, and the use of Ketones in the TOUR DE FRANCE. You can find Brian and DeltaG at: https://twitter.com/BrianMcMahon126https://twitter.com/deltaGKetones Try Delta G Tactical ON the bike: https://www.deltagketones.com/products/g-tactical?discount=Brendan&rfsn=6916303.afbe269&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6916303.afbe269 Studies mentioned in this video: Ketones & EPO Study: https://researchportal.bath.ac.uk/en/publications/ketone-monoester-ingestion-increases-post-exercise-serum-erythrop Exogenous ketones and EPO Study 2: https://physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP284346 Summary of these studies. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of ketone monoester ingestion on postexercise erythropoietin (EPO) concentrations. Why Is EPO Important? EPO is required for red blood cell production. EPO is the primary regulator for production of red blood cells that transport oxygen in the circulation from the lungs to the tissues. Athletes ingested equivalent to 1/2 to 3/4 a bottle 1h and 2h post-exercise with a carb/protein mix, and blood samples were taken 7 times over 4 hours. In conclusion, ketone monoester ingestion increases postexercise erythropoietin concentrations, revealing a new avenue for orally ingestible ketone monoesters to potentially alter hemoglobin mass. Chapters 00:00 Intro 00:37 What is EPO? 01:12 Ketone and EPO study 02:05 DeltaG and Ketone uses 05:15 The benefits of Ketones based upon the study 09:29 How does the timing matter on taking ketones? 12:58 How does taking ketones alter blood glucose levels? 16:11 The focus from ketones 19:06 A key note on EPO studies 20:44 How to keep up with Brian and DeltaG 22:42 Performance of Ketones in the Tour de France 26:19 DeltaG Ketones in a 20 minute TT Study 27:01 Be critical of the studies! 28:11 Wrap up 👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!
