if there is beta-hydroxybutyrate in our blood just like every other cell in our body we can use that to you know to be converted to acetic away to make energy as fuel just like glucose would be fuel for these cells

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

the fact that on a ketogenic diet like carnivore like nose to tail carnivore you're gonna have circulating beta hydroxy butyrate means that the epithelial cells in the gut are gonna have plenty of fuel
when we're in ketosis we can get beta-hydroxybutyrate from the bloodstream which is actually in intermediate once we uptake butyrate or iess computer rate it becomes beta-hydroxybutyrate in those cells
he was mentioning that he felt like when people had disordered guts they tolerated plant foods worse than I thought isn't that interesting you know and this may go back to the using the carnivore diet as a as a temporary thing or cleanse or you know for people but I do think that that that the sicker our guts are the less able we are to digest plant foods and in that kind type of a situation being in ketosis can be so valuable because it provides beta-hydroxybutyrate for the colonic epithelial sites through the circulation
in that kind type of a situation being in ketosis can be so valuable because it provides beta-hydroxybutyrate for the colonic epithelial sites through the circulation we don't have to use butyrate from the gut
in a state of ketosis we can actually use beta hydroxybutyrate from the bloodstream to nourish colonocytes and we don't need butyrate from the out inside of the gut which is probably why ketogenic diets are so valuable for people who have disordered gut problems
one of those is ketosis it's actually a powerful powerful way to support the gut
one of those is ketosis it's actually a really powerful uh powerful way to support the gut especially in an inflamed situation
so you're also probably going to be getting a lot of ketone production so if you have ketone production in the blood um or you know by the liver coming into circulation then you also have the ability for gut cells to pick up ketones from circulation and that feeds into right into the butyrate metabolism the butyrate metabolic pathway butyrate is actually turned into beta hydroxybutyrate before it's used for energy
