A Ketone Ester Drink Lowers Human Ghrelin and Appetite

Stubbs BJ et al.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.)

Key finding

The ketone ester drink lowered plasma ghrelin and significantly suppressed reported hunger and desire to eat 1.5 hours after consumption compared with dextrose.

What the study did

Fifteen normal-weight subjects consumed, after an overnight fast, 1.9 kcal/kg of ketone ester or isocaloric dextrose in drinks matched for volume, taste, tonicity and color. Ketone ester raised blood BHB from 0.2 to 3.3 mM after 60 minutes. Postprandial plasma insulin, ghrelin, GLP-1 and PYY were significantly lower 2 to 4 hours after ketone ester than after dextrose.
