“Ketosis” is an intimidating word for many. Like with a low-carbohydrate diet, a high-fat diet, or a diet with added fatty acids, you may have heard of keto dieting and have some reservations about sending your body into this state without fully comprehending what it is or even how it works.

Exogenous ketones are becoming increasingly more popular as a nutritional supplement because of the fuel they supply our bodies with and how they positively affect other functions of the body. BHB isn’t necessarily a ketone. However, it still functions like one and still converts into energy as the other ketones do. BHB, or Beta-hydroxybutyric acid, is the main source of exogenous ketone bodies that supplements rely on.

Exogenous ketones are ketones from outside (exogenous) your body and are a supplement to help you achieve and sustain ketosis, increase energy and focus, and aid in weight loss efforts. IGNITE KETO contains a patented form of ketones called goBHB that help fuel ketosis and provide all the benefits of ketones that your body experiences from endogenous ketones (ketones from inside your body) in an easy to drink powder form.
