On the Metabolism of Exogenous Ketones in Humans

Key finding
Ketone salt drinks produce real but much lower blood D-BHB peaks than the ketone ester at matched doses.
What the study did

Three randomized metabolic studies in healthy adults compared a ketone monoester drink with sodium plus potassium BHB salt drinks at about 12 g and 24 g BHB. Both drinks raised blood D-BHB, but the ester reached 2.8 mM versus 1.0 mM for the salts. Levels returned to baseline within 3 to 4 hours.

This study used [form], not goBHB. It is shown here as general ketone science. Only goBHB studies back goBHB product claims.
