Key finding
Raising blood BHB reduced joint swelling, fibrosis, and IL-1beta in a rat model of blood-induced arthropathy.
What the study did
Rats received repeated blood injections into joints to model bleeding-induced arthropathy. A ketogenic diet raised blood BHB levels. Higher BHB reduced joint swelling and periarticular fibrosis. In macrophage cultures, BHB suppressed IL-1beta release after blood exposure.
This study used [form], not goBHB. It is shown here as general ketone science. Only goBHB studies back goBHB product claims.
