KE4 Provides help with Dementia/Alzheiemer’sThere are over 5.8 million people suffering with some form of dementia in the U.S. and over 747,000 in Canada. (Alzheimer’s is the most common form). While there are currently six drugs, they don’t work for everyone and there can be some side effects that stops their usage. All of us are told that there’s nothing else out there for looking after our loved ones who have dementia.Thankfully, there is help with ketone based products, including the most concentrated form, the ketone ester, called: KE4.For a thorough history of the use of ketones as well as the research that has taken place one excellent book is The Complete Book of Ketones by Dr. Mary Newport. It’s important to have this background so you don’t just have to rely on testimonies.In our case, we use three ketone products daily and this has provided stability and calmness for most of the day. Then almost two months ago I began to give KE4 to my loved one and there were some very surprising and helpful results. There have not been any side effects.Here is a shortlist of both the dose and what has taken place so far (I have kept a careful daily diary):Dose: We began giving the ketone ester Feb. 17/22 (1 teaspoon with 1/3 cup of pomegranate juice). After four days began noticing changes.Mar. 12 I began giving her 1 ½ teaspoons of the ketone ester with ½ cup of pomegranate juice.April 3/22 I began giving 2 teaspoons of the ketone ester with 138 ml of pomegranate juice (= ½ cup + 1 tbsp and 1 tsp)Sleep and hand tremors improvementWaking up in the middle of the night has almost been phased out. As of April 9/22 it has only happened twice in 43 days (once for 2 hours and another time for about 10 or 15 minutes). This is possibly the most important area since once a loved one no longer sleeps through the night it begins to destroy the health of the caregiver and they may need to place them in a care home.Radically decreased running out the door While this used to take place 2 or 3 times a day it now has only happened once. If I would not follow after her quickly I would lose sight of which way she went. I am so thankful for this change.Eyesight improvement in one area She was now able to put the key into the key hole at least once on most days beginning today. Her eyesight had gone down so much from the disease that this is quite amazing.Guitar She has been able to find the first chord by herself and then play several songsThoughts – While terrible thoughts would come into her head and cause upset, she has begun to have happy thoughts that cause her to laugh.Humor She now responds to humor and more recently has begun to show humor herself.Fine for the entire day She has had two days recently where she is fine for the entire day. There were no upsets or stressful times.Needless to say, I am very thankful and happy that there is something to bring help to our situation right here and now. I should note that in spite of the improvements, there is no evidence at this point that it can slow down or stop the progression of the disease.Future needs: A breakthrough is needed to neutralize the challenging taste of the ketone ester and to bring down the cost so many more would be able to benefit from this special product.If you read the above book I mentioned you will find that people with various chronic diseases have been helped with KE4 not just those with dementia.

THIS IS A "0 STAR" REVIEW! ! but i wanted to make sure the truth is distributed throughout.THIS is not to be consumed, simply smell it, and understand you are about to put that into your body. what the # are you selling?

The jury is still out on KE4 for me. I've been reading that a large number of procyclist and marathon runners are now using these, so that's worth following to see what they find over time.I bought this to use when I was on the keto diet. I used ketone esters when biking, running, and doing demanding manual labor tasks around the house as after starting this diet my body was incapable of keeping up with ketone production necessary to keep me going at a level I was accustomed to on a standard diet. It was very frustrating how fast I would tire.I started with the KetoneAid Shots (2oz ready-to-drink bottle), which worked incredibly well. I was definitely working out in a fuel-deficient mode because within about 5-10 minutes of drinking a 1/2 shot I felt like a turbo had kicked in! The burning in my legs when I pushed up a hill biking or running was gone and I could sustain such an effort much longer. Anyway, those bottles are $8 a piece for 2 shots ($4/shot), so I thought I could get a better deal using the KE4, which I figured I could get down to ~$2.50 a shot if I bought from the manufacturer in bulk. Unfortunately, even mixing my own "shots" with the KE4 using comparable ketone ester amounts, I didn't feel the turbo as much (I switched back and forth between KE4 and the shots a couple times to be sure). KE4 definitely helped, but I seemed to somehow get more from the pre-mixed shots. Note this was purely my subjective perception of the impact it had on my performance. I wasn't doing time-trials or anything to get any form of data (though that would be really interesting to do!).Probably not surprisingly, the longer I did keto, the better my body became at making my own ketones and keeping up with the demand during activity. So again while these definitely helped, the turbo-boost effect became less noticeable over time.I continued using them when I finished up with keto (though still eating lower carbs). I've been testing my blood ketones and am definitely out of ketosis (per published metrics, ketones < 0.5mmol/L) and I'm not sure how much difference adding ketone esters makes. I think it still helps a little, but I'm not racing or anything so the cost/benefit ratio is getting too high for me and I've stopped using it.For someone starting the keto diet, especially if you are very low carb and going after a therapeutic level of ketosis who wants to boost their energy for workouts (or just working), I highly recommend these. I was very happy with the results of doing keto and plan (at least for now) to do the diet at least once per year. So I plan to have these on hand next time to help me maintain my activity level through the early days (at least) of the diet.If you are racing/competing I suspect these can be useful (read up on the pros using it), so if you need that edge the cost/benefit ratio may be worth it to you. You probably should research how the body utilizes these, if you get the desired benefit on day-one or if you need to "train" your body over time to better utilize ketones. It's something that's on my to-do list, just haven't gotten to it yet.
