In this episode, Angela and Amy take a deep dive into the science of ketones. Chrissy Ensley from Ketone-IQ, a company that produces an exogenous ketone product that you can drink, comes on the show to explain how ketones work. The latest research has shown that ketones can improve athletic performance and also enhance muscle recovery, as well as bring you better mental clarity and focus. There has been a lot of buzz about new products on the market that allow athletes to enter a state of ketosis, while still fueling normally, in and out of training. Really fascinating stuff!   Links for more info: <a href= "https://hvmn.com/pages/ketone-iq">https://hvmn.com/pages/ketone-iq</a> <a href= "https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2468867319300586"> https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2468867319300586</a>
