Geoff and Latt are back on the Podcast! Today, they discuss Prof. Peter Hespel's new paper "Bicarbonate Unlocks the Ergogenic Action of Ketone Monoester Intake in Endurance Exercise"

In Episode 163, we discussed the totality of data behind ketone esters. Some contexts show benefit, some contexts have shown no benefit for ketone esters. What are the deeper mechanisms behind these contradictory results?

Geoff and Latt break down Prof. Hespel's exciting new paper that shows that a combination of sodium bicarbonate (or baking soda) in combination with ketone esters enhance performance upwards of 5%, while each alone show no benefit as compared to a glucose control.

This one is a great one for athletes, coaches, and biohackers to learn the very latest recommendations and protocols of how to use ketone esters directly from Geoff and Latt. This one is also great for metabolism nerds who want to geek out about the subtle details relating to ketone esters including acidosis, pH buffering, how ion levels shift in muscles, and how these all interplay together.
