Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the capacity of different dietary supplements to increase ketone production in healthy adults. Each supplement (leucine, butyrate, octanoate, carnitine or butter fraction rich in MCT) is evaluated for a period of 4-hour during which multiple blood samples are taken in order to measure ketone production.

Ketogenic potential

Each participant has to go through a total of 8 visits, each visit corresponding to a standardize breakfast taken alone (control visit) or with one of the dietary supplements evaluated followed by a period of 4-hour with multiple blood sampling.

Intervention 1: Control; no supplement Intervention 2: 5 g of leucine Intervention 3: 3.6 g of butyrate Intervention 4: 7.2 g of butyrate Intervention 5: 5 g of octanoate Intervention 6: 10 g of octanoate Intervention 7: 1.95 g of carnitine Intervention 8: 65 g of butter fraction rich in MCT
