Clinical Trials & Quality

Quality, Made in the USA

It may seem cliché when a company rattles off "Made in the USA" and all of their GMP measures. So let me explain our commitment in details.

Ketone Ester Made in the USA.

Many companies will literally buy racemic ketone salts from China, place them in a tub in the USA, and label it "Made in the USA" or some will use the "with foreign and domestic ingredients", which usually means 99% of the product is from China, and maybe they throw in 1 thing from the USA. I don't know how a customer is able to decipher.

Our ketone ester is actually manufactured, as in actually made in the USA, in Kentucky to be exact. We own our own dedicated equipment that is just used to make ketone ester. The facility is cGMP. The ketone ester undergoes multiple 3rd party testing to ensure each batch is of the highest quality.

Each batch of KE4, KE1 and SnakeWater are 3rd party batch tested for WADA anti-doping compliance. Certificate is available upon request.

KetoneAid Chosen for several Clinical Trials

Our product KE4 has been chosen for multiple clinical trials. The first published paper focused on soccer wind-sprints, but by our added recommendation, they tested the brain. Thank goodness, because they found an amazing discovery. (see paper).

All clinical trials using KetoneAid published on ClinicalTrials.gov (about half of all trials).

All independent (not funded by KetoneAid) published papers using KetoneAid products specifically.

Seeking Principal Researchers for more Clinical Trials

Several clinical trials are at various stages, and supplied by KetoneAid.
While our website may focus on sports, KetoneAid is very interested in collaborating with Principal Investigators to further test the boundaries of our Ketone Monoester. Please contact us.
