WHAT IS BHB AND HOW IT HELPS WITH KETOSIS

KETO, KETONES, AND KETOSIS

If you’ve been looking up ways to lose weight, chances are you’ve heard or read about the ketogenic diet. It’s known to be that one diet where you suppress the amount of carbs you eat and rely on fats to do the rest of the work.
While it may sound unsafe and counterintuitive, especially since some still insist fatty food is always bad for you, this diet actually relies on how our body relies on a natural metabolic process called ketosis. Ketosis is when the body uses ketones instead of carbs when you are super low on carbs and coincidentally, the body produces ketones from stored fat.
Since the ketogenic diet relies on ketones produced from body fat, supplement companies started producing ketone supplements.
What are BHB supplements? How do they help with weight loss? What BHB supplements should you take?

WHAT IS BHB?

When talking about the ketogenic diet and supplementation, it wouldn’t take long before someone brings up BHBs.
BHB is an organic compound and one of the three major ketone groups the body produces, alongside Acetone and Acetoacetate. [1]
What makes BHB unique is how it’s the most abundant form of ketone the body produces during ketosis. How about the other two? Acetone is the least produced and is often exhaled, acetoacetate is just part of the overall metabolic process and not the “final product.” BHB is produced after acetoacetate, as specific enzymes break down acetoacetate to form produce. BHB is then the exact ketone used as fuel for the body.
The best and most efficient way to produce BHB in large amounts is by inducing ketosis. As mentioned earlier, you can only be in a state of ketosis through limited consumption of carbohydrates and fasting.

Fat Burners That Actually Work!
From new diets being invented left and right, celebrity weight loss stories, commercials and TV shows about losing weight, and more than a handful of two-week fitness programs that claim to help people with their weight loss problems, it’s no secret why the weight loss has become an industry of its own.
Sure enough, supplement companies want to capitalise on this unending trend by producing and mass marketing ingredients called fat burners.
Fat burners are perhaps some of the most controversial yet also extremely marketable supplements on the market. On one hand, they promise to make weight loss much easier and affordable. On the other, it can make people think that taking fat burners is the only thing they need to do to finally become lean and win the battle of the bulge once and for all.
But, what exactly are fat burners? How do they work? What fat burners should you look for? This blog will answer those questions and more.

WHAT ARE FAT BURNERS?

Fat burners are ingredients that promise to do one thing and that is to make users lose weight. They come in pills, powders, and liquids and can range from simple herbal extracts to synthetic stimulants.
Like some detoxes and cleanses, fat burners are designed to be taken in conjunction with diet and exercise. Depending on the fat burner, the primary function can be as an appetite suppressant, a metabolic enhancer, or a substance that stimulates fat burning hormones.
HOW DO FAT BURNERS WORK?

The goal of a fat burner is to help the user lose weight, but how exactly do they do that? While there are hundreds of studies that say fat burners do work when it comes to weight loss, they can help burn fat in three main ways.

APPETITE SUPPRESSANT

One of the basic ways to lose weight is to simply limit the amount of food intake. The math is simple: The less you eat, the less fat is stored, and the less weight you put on. If you combine this with exercise, you create a caloric negative or you lose more calories in a day than gain them.

WHAT ARE NOOTROPICS?

To put it simply, nootropics are supplements designed with the intent of boosting brain power while maintaining brain health. Some refer to nootropics as “smart drugs” or the kind of pill that the protagonist in the film Limitless took that allowed him to maximise brain power and more. [1]
The truth of the matter is, nootropics are simply formulations that contain specific ingredients or concentrations of compounds that have been studied for their brain benefits. Most of the formulas you find in popular nootropics contain natural ingredients.
However, for the most part, the ingredients are often synthetic in nature so as to allow maximum absorption, especially when it comes to bypassing the blood-brain barrier. The blood-brain barrier (also known as the BBB) is a kind of “filter” that prevents some compounds that may cause harm to the brain from entering.
They are often taken to boost learning, focus, mood, cognition, memory, attention, motivation, and reduce stress levels. Nootropics also have the benefit of improving long-term brain health.

NOOTROPICS AND CHOLINE LEVELS

It should be noted that many nootropics are taken to improve the way our brain learns or memorise new information. At the heart of this process is a compound called choline.
Choline is naturally produced by the body in small amounts and is the prerequisite for another nutrient called acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter we use for learning. Raising choline levels is, therefore, the basic purpose of nootropic supplementation. More choline may lead to better learning function.
Other than to improve learning, raising choline levels can also confer more than a handful of health benefits to the rest of the body. Choline is also necessary for liver function, muscle movement, nerve function, metabolic maintenance, and brain development. You can say choline is key for the functions of every cell in the body.
