We also explore the difference between standard peptides and bioregulators—plus how I've personally used compounds like BPC-157, Thymosin Beta-4, and ketone esters (including brands like Teton and KetoneAid) in my own routines.Anthony brings some fantastic insights on sourcing quality peptides, proper hydration protocols, and the latest in supplement strategies to enhance your health and performance.If you're curious about the science behind these compounds and how to potentially integrate them into your training and recovery toolkit, you won't want to miss this one.Sponsors:Tecton Life Ketone drink! https://tectonlife.com/ DRMIKE to save 20%LMNT electrolyte drink mix: miketnelsonlmnt.comDaily Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://flex-diet.kit.com/bfa1510fa8Triphasic 2 book now available!Go to https://triphasic2.com/Episode Chapters:05:40 Welcoming Anthony Castore to the Podcast05:50 Understanding Peptides and Their Applications08:52 Bio Regulators and Epigenetics15:23 Peptides for Joint Health and Aging22:03 Thymosin Alpha One and Immune Surveillance24:25 Ketone Esters and Their Benefits27:12 NAD Supplements and Alternatives31:10 Understanding the Benefits of ENOS Pathway and Nitric Oxide31:34 Comparing 5-Amino-1MQ and 1MNA for Athletes32:25 Resveratrol and Antioxidants: Benefits and Misconceptions34:02 The Role of Inflammation and Antioxidants in Exercise35:14 Exploring Astaxanthin and Its Benefits36:09 Ketone Supplements: Dosage and Effects44:51 Mercury Poisoning: A Personal Experience52:31 The Importance of Hydration and Peptide Efficacy01:03:15 Final Thoughts and Upcoming EventsFlex Diet Podcast Episodes You May Enjoy: Episode 144: Peptides – Bleeding Edge Performance, Muscle, and Recovery with Dr. Andy Galpin & Dr. Ryan GreeneEpisode 152: Testosterone, Muscle Mass, Cortisol, Collagen for Soft Tissue Repair an Interview with Dr Keith BaarConnect with Anthony: Castoremethod: https://www.castoremethod.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anthonycastoreGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpgEmail: https://miketnelson.com/contact-us/

The conversation shifts to Tucson, highlighting its appeal as a cycling destination, before critiquing a new Ridley drop bar mountain bike, emphasizing the need for better design and components. Takeaways Scott had a strong start but faced challenges during the race. Travel issues can significantly impact an athlete's performance. Injuries often overshadow other aspects of an athlete's life. The hosts share a light-hearted banter about cycling and personal lives. Scott's experience highlights the unpredictability of racing conditions. The conversation reveals the emotional toll of competitive cycling. Viewership of cycling events varies greatly between disciplines. The hosts express their differing levels of enthusiasm for bike racing. Scott's personal life is intertwined with his cycling career. The discussion reflects on the popularity of cycling events and their accessibility. GCN's Perry Roubaix highlights show significant viewer engagement. Race highlights are crucial for audience understanding of events. Formula One's excitement is often overshadowed by its complexity. MotoGP offers a more dynamic racing experience than Formula One. Motocross can be chaotic and hard to follow live. E3 race highlights provide insights into upcoming classics. Pogacar's participation in Roubaix is a significant development. Tire choices can greatly affect performance in races like Roubaix. Riders often have to balance tire width for cobbles and pavement. The anticipation of racing on cobbles adds to the excitement. Mental health is an important topic that can be unpacked in conversations. Cycling predictions often lead to friendly debates among enthusiasts. Naming trends can reflect personal stories and cultural influences. Adoption allows for name changes, but it's a sensitive topic. Experiences with natural disasters can bring communities together. April Fool's Day can lead to playful banter among friends. Casual conversations can reveal deeper insights about life and relationships. Personal anecdotes can make discussions more relatable and engaging. The importance of trust in one's work is highlighted in humorous exchanges. Celebrating birthdays can lead to unexpected connections and shared experiences. Choosing the right cycling shoes is crucial for performance. Laces can be a disadvantage during races due to loosening. Gravel-specific shoes are often seen as a marketing gimmick. Cyclocross shoes are designed for running and cycling. Personal comfort varies greatly among different shoe brands. Finding the right fit is a challenge in the cycling shoe market. Insoles can help alleviate hotspots in shoes. Many cyclists stick to familiar brands and models. Testing shoes before buying is a significant gap in the market. Innovative designs can enhance comfort and performance in cycling shoes. Mavix is still a company, despite rumors of its closure. Lace shoes are preferred for aerodynamics, but have disadvantages. Velcro shoes are underrated for their speed and convenience. Oral hygiene is crucial for cyclists who consume sugar during rides. Cyclists should separate sugar intake on and off the bike for better health. Post-race recovery drinks like Fanta may taste better but aren't the best choice. Hydration practices in the sauna can impact performance and recovery. Maximizing heat acclimation may not be worth the risk of dehydration. Tires are the most critical component for performance in gravel racing. Understanding the role of hubs can help improve cycling performance. Investing in tires is more beneficial than hubs. The performance difference in hubs is marginal compared to tires. Cycling culture often intertwines with humor and beer. Tucson is recognized as a great place for cycling. The new Ridley bike lacks proper design for serious cycling. A production drop bar mountain bike should be purpose-built. Old inventory can lead to questionable bike builds. Cyclists often experiment with different tires for races. The conversation reflects a mix of technical and cultural insights. The hosts share personal experiences related to cycling events.

71. A Cyclist's Metabolic Transformation: Overcoming Pre-Diabetes and Heart Surgery with Dustin Armstrong

Dustin Armstrong, a Cat 1 Cyclist joins us  to share his metabolic transformation via OFM. Starting Life with underdeveloped lungs racing helped him develop his engine. However, following the conventional approach to sports nutrition Dustin became pre-diabetic and eventually developed heart disease.    He's defied the odds through the OFM (Optimized Fat Metabolism) approach. Tune in as Dustin and Peter discuss the highs and lows of Dustin's athletic career, his unique insights into metabolic health, and how the OFM protocol has helped him achieve optimal performance and health.   Talking Points:   Introduction to Dustin Armstrong:   Born with underdeveloped lungs and faced significant health challenges from the start. Transitioned from professional BMX racing to road biking at the age of 28.   The Shift to Road Racing:   Journey from Cat 5 to Cat 1 in just one year. Initial experiences with different nutritional approaches, including raw veganism and paleo diets for athletes.   Discovering OFM and Ketogenic Diet:   Struggled with inflammation and a pre-diabetic diagnosis in 2015. How the initial adoption of a ketogenic diet helped manage his blood sugar levels but resulted in losing the top-end power necessary for road racing. Introduction to the OFM and VESPA through Peter Defty's brother and its impact on his performance and health.   Experiences with Ketone Esters:   Early experimentation with high-dose ketone esters and their effect on athletic performance and recovery. Challenges and learning to use ketone esters for recovery rather than as a direct performance enhancer. Ketone esters, like those developed by Frank Llosa at KetoneAid, are highlighted as a powerful tool for sustained energy and mental clarity during extended athletic efforts.  Dustin discusses how a microdosing ketone esters can help him stay strong while others are fading. Heart Surgery and Recovery:   Diagnosis of a bicuspid valve and aortic enlargement requiring emergency surgery. Post-surgery recovery using a strict keto diet, nutrient-dense foods, and gradually including ‘Strategic' carbs to be able to return to competition per the OFM protocols. Remarkable comeback within six months, completing multiple challenging events.   The Role of Nutrition and OFM in Athletic Success   How Dustin optimized his fueling strategy with Vespa, strategic carbs, and ketone esters. Importance of nutrient-dense foods like raw milk, homemade yogurt, Natto and other fermented foods for gut health.  Utilizing ancestral health principles to enhance performance and recovery.   Current Racing and Training Insights:   Competing in criterium races every weekend and managing a balanced diet with strategic carbohydrate intake.  Experimentation with different fueling strategies, including the use of raw milk post-race for recovery. Managing non-native-EMF exposure and other environmental exposures with a holistic Lifestyle approach to achieve both optimal health and performance.   Strategic Carbohydrate Use:   Dustin shares how he strategically incorporates carbohydrates to boost performance, especially during high-intensity efforts or long endurance rides.  He emphasizes that a little goes a long way when your body is fully fat-adapted.   Holistic Recovery Approach:   Dustin attributes his rapid recovery from heart surgery to a nutrient-dense diet, the strategic use of OFM, and ketone esters.  He emphasizes the role of a balanced gut microbiome and reduced exposure to non-native EMF in optimizing recovery and health.   Personal Anecdotes and Success Stories:   From his own experience overcoming a congenital heart defect to helping others through OFM, Dustin illustrates the transformative power of OFM. He mentions mentoring a friend who has achieved significant marathon performance improvements using a combination of keto, OFM, and Vespa.   Balancing Modern Nutrition Trends:   Peter and Dustin discuss the current high-carb fueling trends in endurance sports and the pitfalls of extreme carbohydrate dependence.  They advocate for a balanced, context-specific approach that leverages fat adaptation for sustainable performance and health so athletes can take full advantage of ‘Strategic' Carbohydrate use during high level training and competition to minimize the negative health impacts of glycolysis while maximizing the performance gains. Your health and performance is not about following a one-size-fits-all approach but an individualized one that factors in your specific variables, including the demands of the sport. OFM addresses how our native metabolic pathways can be leveraged in real world ways to achieve “Higher Health & Peak Performance” . Justin is another example of how important addressing performance at the metabolic level is toward achieving your health and performance goals. More so, OFM is about fully living LIfe! This conversation provides valuable insights on how you can reduce your sugar consumption, while, at the same time, dramatically improving health and longevity without any sacrifice in performance . . . you probably will see significant improvement with time.

You may have heard me talking lately about how I've been enjoying an evening cocktail comprised of ketones instead of alcohol. This drink is a shockingly close equivalent to both the taste and effect of popular drinks like Gin & Tonic, Moscow Mule, Pina Colada, etc., but without any toxic side effects of alcohol (while I have no problem with a glass or two of organic, biodynamic red wine or a healthy cocktail here and there, it's been really nice to have a tasty alternative). The company that makes the drinks I've been consuming - KetoneAid - was founded by my guest on today's podcast, Mr. Frank LLosa, a serial entrepreneur who has an incredible track record of success in a number of fields from real estate, to highly technical photography for National Geographic, to one of the first cloud-based storage systems available to the public.

I don't want to be disparaging, but there is some massive confusion from inaccurate data posted about BHB and R,1-3 Butanediol. What are those? And what do we need to take for performance gains? Let's get into it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ In this video, let's discuss the scientific difference between ketone esters like Delta G, and other “ketone drinks” that contain just BDO, or R-1,3-BDO, such a Ketone IQ. Delta G Is 1 part BHB and 1 part R-1,3 Butanediol. Ketoneaid has products that mimic both, which is a great third party to compare these other two big brands to. More on that in the video! (What are "hard ketones"?) Others like Ketone IQ, HVMN are just BDO Ketonaid has a drink that is both, and also some marketed to get you buzzed. R1,3 Butanediol is an alcoholic ketogenic precursor, not a ketone ester, and we'll talk about how this negatively affects performance AND some really bad test results in a study. The Delta G CEO even tried with @darpa and @nihgov to use 1,3 Butanediol because it was cheaper to make, however it was discarded since it was getting subjects drunk +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Podcast with Frank from Ketoneaid: https://insideouthealth.libsyn.com/frank-llosa-the-truth-about-ketone-esters-and-how-to-spot-deceiving-marketing Ketoneaid HARD KETONES: https://shop.ketoneaid.com/collections/all/products/r-1-3-butanediol Check all academic ketone studies on our website or on the @nihgov website. 1,3B on cycling, intoxication https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30632425/ Glycogen Sparing: https://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/fulltext/S1550-4131(16)30355-2?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS1550413116303552%3Fshowall%3Dtrue ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Full Blog With Training Tips: www.evoq.bike/blog Subscribe to Our Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/ggRc4n Follow Along on Strava: https://www.strava.com/pros/5889 EVOQ Training Packs: https://www.evoq.bike/training-packs TrainingPeaks Store Programs: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/training-plans/search?language=en&sort.field=soldCount&sort.dir=desc&keyword=evoq&index=0 Ketones, Delta G Tactical: https://www.deltagketones.com/products/g-tactical CODE Brendan for 15% off Lactigo: www.lactigo.com/brendan MORE WATTS and LESS BURN Airofit: https://www.airofit.com/?sca_ref=476545.3AVnm3vdGW Best Chamois Cream: https://www.hellobluecbd.com/, Code Brendan Codyceps Mushrooms: www.realmushrooms.com, Code EVOQ.BIKE Best shades: https://www.julbo.com/en_us/ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/evoqbike/support

Doug Reynolds interviews Frank Llosa about his new concept of hard ketones.  It comes in the form of R1,3-Butanediol, an alcohol without the toxicity and side effects of the ethanol contained in beer, wine, and hard liquor (visit This Page to enjoy a 15% discount at checkout). Frank, who competed as an elite Division 1 track athlete, is well known for his ketone ester product, KetoneAid KE4 Pro, a performance-enhancing drink used by many elite athletes and others.  By splitting off the R1,3-Butanediol molecule from the ester molecule you essentially have something which, while technically an alcohol, contains no ethanol with all it's toxic side effects.  It is billed as the “World's First Ketogenic, Ethanol-Free Alcohol”. The beverage contains no sugar, no carbs, and only 75 calories (100% from the alcohol).   Most people who consume it get that chilled feeling, according to Frank,  It's more of a relaxed state compared to that experienced when consuming an ethanol based drink. It raises blood ketones 5 times more per gram than MCT oils. Frank explains that some of his customers are using R1,3 as a way to transition away from traditional alcoholic beverages.  During the interview, Doug explains his own experience with the R1,3 Selzer (he tried three cans) and describes the product's effects.

It's 2022, and you've probably heard of keto/ketosis/ketones. But you don't need to follow any particular diet to experience the profound health and performance benefits of these drinks. On the performance front, we have ketone esters. Used and researched by NASA, the US military, brain health experts, Tour de France cyclists, Olympians and professional athletes in most sports (NFL, NBA, MLB, UFC), and other high-achievers. A new drink called Hard Ketones contains a different kind of ketone (R1,3 Butanediol) notable as an alcohol alternative for social confidence, relaxation, boosting mood, and crushing appetite. Our conversation this week explores how anyone can use these ketone products for greater quality of life. Meet our guest Frank Llosa is a serial entrepreneur with successes across industries, including real estate, photography featured in National Geographic, and pre-dot com startups. After extensive research, 6 years ago Frank founded KetoneAid — the World's 1st Ketone Ester. KetoneAid has supplied 80% of the Tour de France teams.

SHR # 2840:: Muscle Centric Medicine Plus Ketone Ester - Everything You May Want to Know - Dr. Gabrielle Lyon - Frank Llosa - The medical orthodoxy has ignored the role of muscle and strength play in health and longevity and its been a huge frustration of mine for many years. Since on of the first studies we discussed on this show in 2006 by the California Veterans Administration that showed of 60,000 men followed the strongest men at the beginning of the study, who maintained their strength throughout the 20 years follow-up were still alive and the weakest men at the beginning and throughout had the highest all cause mortality rates. This established the underpinning of science validating "the strong live longer." Today we talk with a physician that practices "Muscle Centric Medicine" PLUS Ketones have been shown to have so many benefits. Lowering insulin levels, reducing gut inflammation, influencing fat loss. Today we investigate a new fun way to get more ketones in your life!

Many people associate ketones with weight loss, however, not many people know about their performance-boosting effects and their anti-inflammatory properties. Today we talk to Frank Llosa, CEO and founder of KetoneAid Inc., and self-educated expert on all-things ketone. We dive into the discussion with a history of how Frank ended up an innovator and field leader in a biological product when his career and formal education were in startups and finance. Tune in to hear about the products on offer from KetoneAid (KE4, K1,3, and KE1) and the science behind each of them. From breaking down the pioneering research on ketones by Dr. Richard Veech to discovering an alternative to ethanol-based alcohol, Frank walks us through the history of ketone research and the biochemistry involved. We hear why certain ketogenic products on the market are not actually ketogenic, and the ingredients you should avoid when choosing a supplement. Andrés provides some background physiology and his own inspiring experience of using KetoneAid's products. If this all sounds too good to be true, think again: Frank not only gives simple breakdowns of the science involved, he also advises on the limitations of his products, where you can read the literature, how to read the literature on ketones, and where you can find feedback from customers (both positive and negative!). We learn the importance of managing your expectations around KetoneAid products, and why ketones are better used for enhancing performance than simple weight loss.Key Points From This Episode:An introduction to Frank Llosa, and the topic of ketones and performance!Why Frank does what he does, and how he discovered ketones. Making the ketone ester KE4 affordable and tasty, and what this involved. Translating science to everyday use, and how Frank started selling Dr. Veech's product. The benefits and biochemistry of hard ketones (R1,3) compared to ethanol: a buzz with benefits. What endogenous and exogenous ketosis means, and how you can biohack your way to a fat-burning state. How ketone esters differ from ketone salts and the categories on the market within each one. The ingredients to avoid: S- or L-forms, salts, and caffeinated products.What keto-flu is, and how to prevent it!Debunking the common misconception of the ketogenic diet: Andrés' breakdown of your physio. Why Frank doesn't think anyone should use any products for weight loss. Why lowering sugar is half of the benefit, while raising the ketones is the other half of the benefit. The brain-energy gap: why a larger gap might mean the benefits of ketones is more noticeable. Using ketones to replace caffeine.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Frank Llosa on LinkedInKetoneAidKetones, The Fourth Fuel: Warburg to Krebs to Veech, the 250 Year Journey to Find the Fountain of YouthDr. Veech on the Ben Greenfield PodcastDr. Veech on the Dave Asprey PodcastA Ketone Ester Drink Lowers Human Ghrelin and AppetiteBiosenseDiscount Code for Free Shipping for the Ketone Ester: AdresketonesDiscount Code for 15% off R1,3: R13Andrés PreschelSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/andrespreschel)

Yep, you can blame the creator of a product called R 1,3 known as Hard Ketones named Frank Llosa for this as Jimmy took up his challenge to try the world's first ketogenic and ethanol-free alcoholic beverage–and it's redefining what alcohol can be. As you will see and hear in this interview where Jimmy tries the R 1,3 for the very first time, there was a decided buzz that happened in the midst of the recording. Watch this episode to learn more about ketone esters, the accidental way Frank found out about the inebriating effects of R 1,3, and why this is a healthier alternative to drinking ethanol while creating fat-burning in the body.

Today I welcome Frank Llosa back to the podcast to talk about his latest thing. Frank Llosa is the founder of KetoneAid and they spin our a new company called Hard Ketones. Hard Ketones will focus on an entirely new category of alcohol that is ethanol free. Today all beer, vodka and wine are ethanol based. Ethanol converts in the liver to acealdyhyde, the toxin that creates hangovers and wrecks recovery. The ingredient in R 1 3 is called R 1,3-butanediol. It is a molecule that converts in the liver to D beta hydroxybutyrate, or ketones. Unlike KetoneAid's other performance enhancing drinks, the R 1,3 (pronounced R one three) is more of an after work drink and replacement for traditional ethanol drinks, while still getting a buzz. A buzz with benefits if you will.

Ketone Aid:  Ketone Esters Have you tried taking ketone esters as a sports supplement?  Before an intense work meeting?  How about before you sleep? In this episode, Debbie chats with Frank LLosa, the founder of Ketone Aid. Learn more here https://ketoneaid.com/protocol/ and find out about how to start your N = 1 experiment with ketone esters!   We don't want to chase ketones- start with becoming fat adapted first and work on stress management skills as chronic stress increase glucose so you can “run from the lion” and prioritize your safety.    Do you need to supplement with Ketone Esters on a demanding day for more cognitive effect?  Are you shifting into low carb food plan?  Ketone Esters may help you out in the transition into a Nutritional Ketosis. What about if you are doing a longer water fast and need a little brain boost?  Ketone Esters may help you prolong the fast. Let's dive into the "Sports Protocol":  SUGGESTED SERVING SIZE Each "serving" is technically 60ml of KE4 (30g of the Ketone Ester), but do not start with a full bottle. More is NOT always better. More may lower blood glucose too much, lower top speed, and reduce performance substantially. It is based on weight, so if you weight 2x the average person, you may need more. And if you are lightweight, you will need much less. Numbers below are based on 70 kilos. Start in practice, NOT in a race. (Updated March 2021) Micro dosing KE4:  (Micro dosing is a fancy word for taking smaller amounts of KE4) If using KE1 (compare) and adjust. 1 bottle of KE1 is = to about 2 capfuls of KE4) Pre-Workout:  Start here. (All Athletes, regardless of diet) Regardless of your diet.A) Full Keto & fat adapted B) New to keto or intermittent fasting, or C) Full carb/western diet. Step 1: Empty stomach (at least 2-3 hours, if not overnight). This really is key. Without this, you may have to take more or do the dual fuel protocol with carbs and it still not be better. Why? (see this video) and more details on Fasted Workouts here Step 2: MOST COMMON: 1 to 3 capfuls of KE4 (same as 1/2 to 1.5 bottles of KE1) about 15 min before warmup or workout. * 1-2 capful for females or much lighter males, * 2-3 capfuls for NON keto males. * 1-4 capfuls for keto males, (Keto athletes find benefit at lower amounts, BUT some are able to take more without the blood sugar dropping effect that non keto people get.) Warning, if you take it too early like 30-60 min and don't use the fuel, you may get tired (i.e. blood sugar crash). Some sprinters have taken it 45 min before without issue. Just test in practice the EXACT protocols you plan to use. Note that glucose is not necessary (and could be worse) with this small amount since blood glucose does not drop too much with micro dosing. Glucose also causes inflammation, it is a dirty fuel with lactic acid as a byproduct (ketones create zero lactic acid). The theory here is micro dosing may trigger endogenous ketone production (where your body makes ketones), whereas more may hault that production or it can also drop blood sugar too much. Some may stick with this protocol and not move up in quantity. Play around with different amounts Then try 15ml up to 25ml of KE4 (again, until you reach 30ml, you may not need carbs.) If you do notice a difference with 10-15ml, some may drop to 5ml to see how that works. I wouldn't start with 5ml because it may be too subtle, but you can if you feel the energy is still available. Tips: Don't go out faster expecting a better final result. Go out as normal as possible and then later in the practice you can increase your speed if you want.

In this episode I deep dive into the fascinating world of ketone esters with Frank Llosa one of the most passionate entrepreneurs you will meet.  By now, most of us have heard of the ketogenic diet – at its center are 3 fascinating molecules called Ketones – in this case, we are talking about beta hydroxybutyrate or BHB.  While it is often talked about as a fuel source, it turns out the BHB is so much more than that as it is also an important signalling molecule that has wide ranging benefits to the human body.  Ketone Esters are known for tasing awful and costing a small fortune but through utter dedication Frank has managed to make them palatable and more affordable in order to make this important compound accessible to more people including researchers who are still uncovering the many ways they can benefit human health.   Links https://shop.ketoneaid.com Use Promo Code Longevity to save on shipping!

Senescence, or the degradation of our DNA cells, is the reason our bodies age and damage over time. How does cell damage impact how our bodies function? How does living a pro-inflammatory lifestyle impact our health and how we age over time? Why is fasting such a powerful optimization tool? On this episode, functional and longevity medicine practice physician, Dr. Suzanne Turner, shares on senescence and what we can do about it.    Three Takeaways  As we age, the cells in our body start to die (or go through senescence), and they start to spew out inflammatory chemicals and attack our innate stem cells, making them unable to heal us.     We now live in an age where all the information about health and wellness is so readily available. A lot of older patients didn’t come up in a generation where people talked about the importance of diet and exercise.   Ketone esters are a great supplement for mediating senescence, especially when taken along with intermittent fasting. Take 5g four times a day, when you would normally eat breakfast with black coffee, and then lunch or dinner or even before bed. Dr. Turner recommends these brands: KetoneAid or HVMN.   At the start of the show, Dr. Suzanne Turner shared how she got started, and why peptides are the present and future of medicine. Next, we talked about whether neurological disorders are caused by lifestyle choices, and the impact of cellular stress and disease.     We also discussed; Why fasting is key to mediating senescence  Why we should stop taking growth hormone  The best supplements and peptides for mediating senescence

Many endurance athletes use the keto diet to boost their energy and optimize performance. What if there was a supplement that could mimic what the body does in ketosis, allowing keto and non-keto athletes alike to reach their full potential? Ketone ester drinks serve as the fourth food group, helping both elite athletes and weekend warriors perform at their best. But not all ketone drinks are created equal... Frank Llosa is the Founder and CEO of KetoneAid, a company that produces ketone-based dietary supplements to fuel the brain and improve athletic performance. In addition, Frank is a former Division I track athlete and wildly successful serial entrepreneur with a unique ability to find a way where others have failed. He adheres to a vegan ketogenic diet and incorporates biohacking to stay competitive in all areas of his life. Today, Frank joins us to explain how he came to partner with Dr. Richard Veech and create KetoneAid. He describes how ketone esters impact athletes who are already on a keto diet versus non-keto athletes and shares cyclist Greg Henderson’s experience with the performance enhancing drink. Frank also addresses the differences between ketone salts and ketone esters, offering insight into what differentiates KetoneAid’s KE4 from the ketone ester made by HVMN—the only other reputable company on the market.

Unsurprisingly, we learned about companies marketing their salts for weight loss or as a way for you to stay in ketosis while eating crap. Which is utter BS… Listen to this episode to learn about the different kinds of exogenous ketones, how and why to take them, what you can expect and a lot more. Actionable Steps Decide to change your lifestyle and clean out your cupboards, cabinets, fridge and get rid of everything that would sway you from your goals. Learn from other people on the same journey. Try KetoneAid exogenous ketone esters and experience ketosis. Show Notes The keto diet has taken the world of diet and nutrition by storm recently. And with that has come a bunch of ways to "hack" your way into ketosis so you can (in theory) have your cake and eat it too! One of such hacks are exogenous ketones. So, the whole point of following a ketogenic diet is to use your body's fat reserves as energy. Basically, your liver converts your fat into energy which your cells can utilize instead of glucose. This process generates ketone bodies (simply referred to as ketones) which fuel your cells. The problem is that most of us become carb-dependent very early on in our lives. So when we decide to transition and switch from carbs to fat for fuel, it is not a smooth transition. It usually takes time and a very strict low carb diet for us to become fat adapted. And during this period of time we might suffer of the "keto flu". The keto flu is simply a collection of flu-like symptoms that may occur to people who are transitioning to a fat adapted metabolism. It usually resolves with a few modifications to our diets such as adding salt and drinking more water. Unsurprisingly, many people give up the keto diet at this point and never get to experience true ketosis. Enter exogenous ketones. By supplementing your body with the ketones it needs while it reaches the point of ketosis by diet alone can be a very effective way of getting you fat-adapted. The problem came when some companies decided to start marketing their exogenous ketones for weight loss and as a way for you to be able to eat all the carbs you wanted while staying in ketosis. This is not possible. Or healthy. And to add to the mix, it turns out that not all the ketones are created equal. There's ketone salts and there's ketone esters. Complete Show Notes

By now, you know that our brains and bodies can run on various fuel sources. No longer confined to run on glucose, we know that FAT is not only an effective fuel source, but often preferred for high performance.  But what if you've never been fat adapted? What if you're yet to take that plunge to re-program your metabolism, give us sugar and get yourself into ketosis.? What if you've never measured your blood ketones, but are are curious about the wonderful world of ketone esters, ketone salts and (of course) optimal performance.  Exogenous ketones my friends. Exogenous ketones.  I've been eating for ketosis about 80/20 for about 2.5 years.  Meaning, most of my meals are keto-friendly, high fat, moderate protein, low carb. I have a cheat day though, sometimes two.  But, after trying exogenous ketones twice in one week, I can tell you, there's a shortcut.  My first test with Ketoneaid went like this: Woke up, opted for black coffee instead of my daily butter coffee (upon suggestion), skipped breakfast as well as my typical Natural Stack supplements: Krill, D3, Curcumin, Vit C, Ciltep, MycoImmune, MycoMind. Then around 930am, I tested my blood ketones and they read .4. Mind you, the standard fat-burning ketosis range starts at .5 - but it was the day after the superbowl and I watched at Ben's house...and his lady Deana made these ridiculous chocolate chip cookies (I had 3).  After my first blood test reading of .4 - I chugged the 30 grams of Ketoneaid. Within 20 min I was in full ketosis.   Frank Llosa is the founder and CEO of KetoneAid - the same ketone ester company that raised over $150,000 on Indiegogo to continue research on their ketone ester product. They had so many people pre-order the product, that they had to stop the offer. YOU COULD SAY PEOPLE ARE INTERESTED.  Frank is an interesting and energetic guy. I had a great time talking with him. He got into the wide world of ketones after his wife's godfather - the creator of the exogenous ketone Dr. Richard Veech tapped him on the shoulder.  Our conversation ranges from both the very technical, to the standard operating procedures when taking exogenous ketones. Here's some highlights: There are some key differences between salts and esters. They are the same in that they are both beta hydroxybutyrate, but ketone salts are bonded with salts and ingested (and to get an effect you have to eat half a salt shaker to see the increase  - whereas ketone esters are bonded with 1 3 butanediol which is an organic alcohol. With effective ketone esters like Ketoneaid, there is a point of diminishing returns. You can actually get too much energy, which may be wasted if you're not burning energy for performance. You can take Ketoneaid for mental performance (which I did) or for physical performance. Frank suggests that consumer grade ketone esters like Ketoneaid will be available at convenience stores at some point in the near future, as a healthier option to energy drinks. If you're used to ketosis. As in, if your baseline is a ketogenic state, then you may not benefit or notice the effect of the exogenous ketones. We said in the podcast "You can't be in more flow then then flow." Back to my first exogenous ketone ester experience. I tested my blood ketones 20 min after drinking the 30gram bottle of Ketoneaid - and they had jumped from .4 to 2.9. That's full ketosis. I tested 20 min later and again got 2.9, then I kept working and did another test at 60 min and it registered at 3.2. My cognitive speed noticeably increased, as well as my vocabulary. I was able to focus faster and more clearly almost immediately. I liked the energy boost as well. Energy without jitters.  After talking with Frank a little more about baselines, he suggested that I do another test, but take the same standard vitamin/nootropic stack i usually do. So, about a week later I took another 30 gram test, on top of my daily stacks.  At 930am I tested my blood ketones beforehand again, and I was at .5. Then I drank another 30 grams of Ketoneaid and tested after 20 min. They had jumped to 3.4! Also, my immune system had been tested all week by a cold that both my kids and wife had been working through. I was holding out, and at the day of my second test, I woke up with a bit of dryness in the sinuses and a little brain fog...not bad, but noticeable.  I was actually pretty interested in seeing what effect, if any the Ketoneaid had on my incoming cold symptoms. After a second post-drink test, I was at 4.2 (well within the ideal range of ketosis). This day wasn't a big cognitive load day, instead, my family was headed to the beach to walk and built driftwood forts. But, after driving about 15 minutes I felt like the pressure mounting in my sinuses and brain fog had lifted noticeably and I actually mentioned to my wife that i felt much better.  I didn't test again that day, but I did notice a few things: My bourgeoning cold symptoms suppressed. Whether that's my own badass immune system or the MycoImmune or what, I don't know. But, I didn't get sick. I felt a mood increase, a brain speed increase, and even a slight increase in my wit. At least I thought I was funnier my wife and kids may not :). I felt a natural energetic increase. Despite feeling the start of a start of a cold, the symptoms decreased and really dissipated over the next 24 hours. I didn't experience a drop off or anything like that. Perhaps it was the 3pm cup of tea I had while conversing with my folks at their house, but I didn't get tired until my typical repose around 915pm.  This was my first experience with Ketoneaid, or any other sort of ketone ester. I like it. I can absolutely see why it's getting these really exceptional results for people. Of course, I took the mind protocol, which Frank explained to me in an email. But the other protocol is for performance and I can clearly see how it's effective in that respect.  I'd do it again for sure. And since it sounds like the goal is to make it available at convenience stores everywhere (but probably health food stores and amazon before that), it sounds like everyone will have the chance to try it.  I don't know of any research that says exogenous ketone esters are harmful. I think it's really really early in the process to try and understand how all of this works, the effects and it's uses.  But I dig the stuff.  Follow Frank Llosa LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/FrankLlosaOPP Follow Sean McCormickInstagram: http://bit.ly/OPPMacTwitter: http://bit.ly/OPPMacTwitter Follow Natural StacksTwitter: http://bit.ly/NsTwitterInstagram: http://bit.ly/NsInstagram Facebook: http://bit.ly/NsFacebook Shop Natural StacksShop: http://bit.ly/OPPShop
