Question

Has anyone tried drinking ketones to help get into ketosis? I’m just wondering if it would be worth trying.  

Answer 1

It's not necessary if you follow the sheet. . the protocol is balanced in a way that it is done on its own if you follow the program

@collectivity I totally agree. I was just wondering if anyone tried them and had any success.

Drinking exogenous ketones does not put you into ketosis or speed it up. Waste of money and time

@collectivitycheck your PMs :)

Answer 2

Ketones are a result of burning fat. You want to burn your own ketones, plus its impossible to speed up ketosis with a product. You body does this naturally when you deplete your glycogen storage. Your coach should be able to explain this in detail, its scientific :)

Answer 3

Huge waste of money. You enter nutritional ketosis in 3-5 days by depleting your glycogen stores from limited carbs. This causes your body to burn fat for energy. Drinking exogenous ketones that pass through your body to show up when you pee on a stick does nothing to cause you to burn fat.  

Answer 4

I would stick to one thing at a time. i had decent results with keto os products. I had twins and was exhausted and the caffeinated shakes made it possible to start working out again 1-3 hours a day. I lost 20lbs doing that. Then got tired of the cost. Lost another 40 on IP - much faster too! Gained back quarantine 15- start up for real on monday:)

@autotruck I’m definitely going to stick to IP. Sometimes I just want a flavoured drink lol thought maybe the ketones would be a better choice.

@fiat9864 having twins and working- it is really nice to lose without taking the time to exercise. i really like Ip’s bcaa branch chain amino acids drink mix. i havent tried the water electrolytes drinks. maybe try those. Those keto drinks felt like taking pre work out. It would be hard to take them and not work out.

@autotruck - I used to take them way before I knew about IP. I enjoyed the energy. Being a incredibly depressed person. They actually helped me to move some days.

How does one drink ketones?

@chokedamp there is a product you can drink that will put you into ketosis. I don’t think I am allowed to mention the name as it would be “advertising” I don’t sell them. I used to but them.  

Answer 6

Work program. Use alternative to ease in but IP works. No shortcuts needed.
