Assessment of BHB Concentration Agreement Among Sampling Locations and the Impact of Ketosis on Erythropoietin Levels: A Two-Part Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Ketone monoester and Placebo for Ketosis. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study aims to address two key aspects. First, the suitability of selecting a specific sampling site for BHB measurement in patients and research, as well as potential differences between capillary and venous blood measurements. Additionally, the study will investigate the effects of ketosis on EPO concentrations, sex hormone levels, hemodynamic markers, and blood pressure. This investigation will utilize blood samples collected from baseline and at Day 15, between which participants are exposed to intermittent ketosis or placebo in a randomized parallel design.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Supraphysiological ketosis induced by ingestion of a ketone monoester dietary supplement administered intermittently during the randomized two-week intervention period.
The placebo vehicle is matched to the ketosis intervention in the experimental arm with regards to taste, volume, viscosity, appearence, and packaging
