The effects of an exogenously-induced ketosis on human exercise physiology, metabolism and capacity

Abstract:

Ketosis is a pivotal metabolic adaptation to starvation that prolongs survival by altering fuel utilisation. If harnessed outside the context of starvation, ketosis may provide a method to enhance physical performance. Therefore, this Thesis explored the effects of an exogenously-induced ketosis on human exercise physiology, metabolism and capacity. First, how the mild-ketoacidaemia associated with ketone supplementation affects the physiological response to incremental-intensity exercise and...
