Multisystem impact of altering acid load of ingested exogenous ketone supplements at rest in young healthy adults

Key finding
Formulation acid load shifted pH, glucose and R-BHB responses but had only modest downstream effects at rest.
What the study did
Single-blind randomized crossover in 20 healthy adults comparing a ketone monoester, monoester plus bicarbonate, and an R-BHB ketone salt. All raised blood R-BHB to about 2 to 4 mM while blood pH shifted by formulation. Blood gases, respiratory exchange and cognition did not differ.
This study used [form], not goBHB. It is shown here as general ketone science. Only goBHB studies back goBHB product claims.
