Developed by scientists in collaboration with the University of Oxford and the National Institutes of Health

Developed through a collaboration between the University of Oxford and the National Institutes of Health with funding from DARPA’s “Metabolic Dominance” program.The groundbreaking research conducted by Dr. Kieran Clarke and Dr. Richard Veech dating back to 2000 has led to the creation of the Oxford Ketone Ester, deltaG®.

The problem.

Overdependence on glucose has created an epidemic of metabolic dysfunction.

The excessive consumption of carbohydrates and sugar, without incorporating regular periods of fasting, has heightened our susceptibility to insulin resistance, blood glucose volatility, and systematic energy deficits.  Most of the serious medical conditions can be traced back to persistent metabolic disorder.

The solution.

Ketones can play a pivotal role in the prevention and reversal of metabolic damage.

Without the need to completely alter your diet, deltaG allows you to combat the primary instigators of metabolic dysfunction, like insulin resistance, elevated blood glucose, excess body fat, and inflammation, by utilizing deep states of ketosis.

The studies speak for themselves.

What are ketones, exactly?

When glycogen is sufficiently depleted, the liver converts fatty acids into ketones. 

Ketones are the body’s secret weapon. We naturally produce these molecules during times of nutritional deficit primarily to feed the heart, muscles, and brain.

In today’s world, the utilization of ketones for energy has become infrequent due to the abundance of food. We instead rely exclusively on fat and glucose.

So why is deltaG® so unique?

deltaG® is the world’s only exogenous ketone that allows users to access deep levels of ketosis safely and effectively.

deltaG® uses an ester bond to deliver high amounts of D-BHB, the bio-identical ketone body to what your body would produce endogenously.

A new metabolic state.

What is Performance Ketosis™?

deltaG®'s groundbreaking technology allows athletes to enter a previously unattainable metabolic state. The current clinical data suggest most recovery and performance enhancing benefits for exogenous ketones occur between 2.0mM to 3.5mM blood BHB levels. deltaG® is the only patented ketone to deliver these levels of Performance Ketosis™

Ketones + Glucose = Optimized Fueling

This new state enables the utilization of ketones without necessitating the depletion of our glycogen stores. Your body will fully optimize fuel sources to dramatically improve recovery, endurance, and resilience.

Not all ketones are created equal

The purpose of an exogenous ketone is to increase blood ketone levels safely and effectively to beneficial levels. deltaG® is the only product in the world that can deliver on this stated purpose.

All other purported “ketone” products pale in comparison on this objective and come with evident drawbacks. The data is clear.

Ketone Salts

A very cheap and easy way to manufacture an exogenous ketone is to bind D-BHB to a salt, whether it be calcium, magnesium, sodium, or potassium. The problem with this delivery method is that in order
to increase the amount of BHB taken, exorbitant amounts of salts must be taken alongside. For instance, the majority of serving sizes for ketone salts incorporate approximately 1,000mg of sodium to provide small amounts of BHB.

1,3-butanediol (BDO)

R-1,3 Butanediol (aka Ketone Diol or BDO) is an alcoholic ketogenic precursor, meaning it converts into ketone bodies in the liver. Using only R-1,3 Butanediol will only slightly increase blood ketones but when taken in excess, as some companies recommend in order to increase blood ketones dramatically, it can cause dizziness and nausea. Even though this molecule is not new or novel, there is almost zero data on its effectiveness as a ketone enhancing tool.

Where deltaG® stands against other ketones

The future of ketones

As many are now learning, using glucose as a primary energy source for the entirety of your life will almost guarantee negative metabolic ramifications. What if we could provide the world with an energy source that did not lead to issues down the road, but actually helped prevent them? This is the type of impact we believe ketones can have on the world.
