I have been using it for one week and LOVE IT. I feel soooo great! I want to shout from the rooftops about how great I feel!
I just ordered more so that when this tub runs out, I can keep going. The positive effects are numerous!
(I don't even sell the stuff, haha... it's always funny with those promoter-based products. I don't sell it, I just LOVE it!!)5 -
That's amazing!!! I love hearing the positives people experience! My husband and I have been using it and it's so crazy how it just perks you up like that!
He also lost 6 pounds in 3 days. Thank you for sharing!
I Also love how you get better sleep and wake up feeling refreshed! Also, as a nursing mother, my milk production is up! And the DAY I started taking it she slept 6 hours for the first time! I'm guessing all the data in the mix made my milk more fatty to keep her more full.

Are you kidding me?! $6/serving?! 1.4g of sodium/serving?! No thanks! And the Amazon reviews aren't all that great. I think I would just stick with the 5/75/20 macro ratio and let time work it's magic.5

So, these are basically exogenous ketones? And they have the same benefits to mood and energy as being on a ketogenic diet? Is that what's happening here? That's crazy!
Do you feel happier, more energetic, clear minded, all that?0 -

He also lost 6 pounds in 3 days. Thank you for sharing! I did decide to sell it because of how amazing it is! I'm not usually one to take risks like that!

So you start a thread on a product you sell?
It is a hugely priced small amount of aminos laced with caffeine.1 -
Sorry, I'm not here to sell, I just want to hear people's experiences with it.

What do they think they can experience with it?
It's a sham product who's calories and micros don't even add up.
It states it has 110 calories a serving, add up it's micros and it only totals 75. I wouldn't put a product in my body from some one who can't even work out their labelling.3 -
It's a waste of time and money especially for those who already follow a low carb / Keto way of eating. You don't want ingest exogenous keytones...rather, you want YOUR BODY to do the work of creating and burning them so by getting them from an outside source you are truly short-changing yourself in that sense.2

Just eat a very low carb diet, your body will make ketones for free.0

Not to mention as OP is a nursing mother I would be especially mindful of what kinds of supplements are going into my body and milk for my baby.1 -
OMG some woman is telling me this on facebook "In the past, the process of increasing ketones in the blood was achieved through a strict, carbohydrate-restive diet called the ketogenic diet. This allowed the body to move from using glucose (sugar) as its primary source of fuel, and to transition to using fats as its primary source of fuel. Today, we can achieve this state through exogenous ketone supplementation with this product" after I told her that you cannot enter ketosis within 30 min. I asked her to show me some science based peer review studies to back up this claim.
not to mention side effects state it can cause hypoglycemia,it claims to burn belly fat and prevent cancer.0 -
reply from that woman"I am sorry you feel that you know better than anyone else who have been using this product. Many, including myself, have been using this product to help keep them burning fat and keeping their weight loss program going well. Some have used it as part of a structured plan and others are doing their own program. You can do an Atkins type or South Beach type program and not be able to stay moving forward because ketosis is very difficult to maintain as it is very susceptible to your carb intake. So what you have worked very hard to maintain for days or weeks can be undone with a simple meal and then take days or weeks to get back to. This is something that can help. And as I said, it has and is working for many"0

@CharlieBeansmomTracey ...[Facepalm]...I'm all for Keto / LCHF since I follow that way of eating myself, but I REALLY HATE this kind of blind "bro science" that is spewed about with no regard for hard scientific data...UGH! I'm surprised you were able to contain yourself and not laugh in that woman's face even via email/social media!0

yeah I have nothing against keto either. I cant do keto but if someone else wants to do it Im fine with that. But I get tired of people peddling their MLM crap and they believe the hype. sorry keto doesnt cost anything but money for food which you buy anyway. the price of a supplement for one month can get me almost 2 weeks of groceries.0 -
