some of the mutations in Parkinson's disease have to do with one of the mitochondrial respiratory electron transport chain complexes and by using ketones as fuel we can bypass that so beta-hydroxybutyrate ketones appear to be uniquely beneficial in Parkinson's disease and mitochondrial diseases because they allow the body to deliver electrons to the electron transport chain in the mitochondrial membrane in a different way that can bypass mutations in that chain
