I eat one meal a day also! Histones have a lot to do with keto rash so I was curious what the connection is when this popped up while searching for “histones!”
What is your opinion?

I get a bad vibe off that guy. I don’t know what it is. Something seems wrong to me. Sounds like he’s selling something. I had to exit the video maybe halfway through. The whole histones thing sounded interesting. I’ll have to do some research on it.
Sounds like something I should have already known about. Biology was my favorite subject in school. Well, any science class really. I was bummed that we didn’t have advanced classes for it.

I wonder what the effect would be on someone who has never been ketogenic, getting all their energy from glucose? Would the body even know what they were? Would they even work? I have heard the some exo-ketones are ‘reversed’, like a molecular mirror image.

Besides the empty calories it provides and the salt esters they are made from. I think has to do more with the way we think about the word “healthy” and what we mean by “nutrition.”
I can eat whatever I want at times, because of the continuous effort of maintaining a healthy ketogenic metabolism or healthy metabolism period (remove the word ‘Ketogenic diet’ from the equation), it is sustainable and can survive a big meal of sugar and carbs because I know my metabolism is healthy and can withstand it!
WELCOME TO KETO HELL!
Quantity vs Quality vs Taste:
I do not think about this in the sense “oh gawd I ate this or ate that, I am no longer in Ketosis” or “I just knocked myself out of Ketosis, oh gawd the world is falling apart!”
That’s not what is happening, because this ketogenic state of the metabolism is natural (it has to be), we, as living beings and who ever created us or what have you, by whatever process we came into being did not intend for us to lose so much weight, but did not intend for us to eat so much dam sugar and carbs either!
Holding onto that concept it makes me stop and think what is really going on here, what is natural?
We just eat too dam much (that’s the real problem) of the wrong foods within an allotted period of time or contrary to the need for the energy expended and not expended!
That’s what I’m starting to realize!

I really enjoyed the info from Dr. Nally when he was on the Keto Talk podcast. He did talk about using exogenous ketones when he had low energy, but wow. He is definitely pushing them hard core in this video. Why would you need to take them 3 times/day while eating keto? Interesting that he didn’t emphasize that we can make them for free. Has anyone gone to his website “store”? Yowza!

If you are producing your own ketones there is no reason to take them. Unless you enjoy flushing them down the toilet, as that’s what you will be doing in essence as your body dispense the extras out as excess.
Secondly, your body will not produce them if you are trying to get into Ketosis. It already has them. Why make them? Similarly when you use prednisone or other meds like cortisone. Your body will just halt production of cortical steroids because you are doing it exogenously.
That doesn’t mean they are useless. Just not useful for someone on a ketogenic diet. I have heard they ‘might’ be useful for certain ailments, like Alzheimer’s or epilepsy. But maybe that had a much to do as being low carb and not just ketone production and use.
