In short: BHB is a ketone body supplied as a salt. It can raise blood ketones for a while, but that is not the same as burning your own body fat.
What It Is
Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is one of the ketones the liver makes when carbohydrate intake is very low. Supplements supply it as a mineral salt.
Supplement Ketones Versus Ketosis
Taking BHB raises ketones in the blood for a few hours. Ketosis from diet is a different process in which your body makes its own ketones from fat.
What Research Shows
Studies on exogenous ketones focus on short-term effects. Evidence for lasting weight loss is limited.
Cautions
BHB salts add sodium, potassium or other minerals and can cause stomach upset. Ask a doctor first if you have kidney or heart conditions or manage diabetes.
In Burn Force
BHB is the first listed ingredient. The amount is not published.
