Can Ketone Esters provide Ketones without a Ketone diet?

Back in 2013, Dr. Mary Newport gave a Ted talk on her re-discovery of MCT oil (she'd been aware of it for several years). In short, it greatly helped her husband with AZ. More recently, Ketone Esters are said to be even more potent than MCT oil. This video is from Dr Newport's talk. I've started looking for anything that shows what any of this can do for AZ or PD.

6 part interview with Dr. Newport and her husband. I listened to the first and last segments and her husband never says a word. Doesn't prove anything but it makes one wonder. Part 6: youtube.com/watch?v=G-IOs0J...

All segments: youtube.com/results?search_...

I do take about a tablespoon of MCT oil daily to maintain regularity which I discuss here:

If a person wants to try it, it is not likely to do any harm, but start up gradually to avoid diarrhea which has been reported.

Tbe husband died in 2015, too. Obviously does not mean that the oil didnt help in some ways but we can conclude that it didnt prevent his Alz related death.

I followed Dr Newport and her husband and reported on here. If I remember correctly her husband was OK for about 6 mnths only, then his health deteriorated and he died.

A while ago there was alot of interest in coconut oil rather reminiscent of the thiamine frenzy of today. Fwes on here was a great advocate but despite the miraculous claims, see link below, he deteriorated with nothing to suggest the coconut oil helped delay progression

Before coconut oil the frenzy was around reversing PD through fast walking. Again there is only one person who claims he has reversed PD this way.

Sadly the answers seem to be much more complex than taking a vitamin pill (or 10 vitamin pills) or similar.

Ketones increase BDNF

Better than ketone esters. Ketones are anti inflammatory amongst many other benefits. Developer of this product has a Phd from Oxford. He has ongoing contracts with the military bc the ketones are used for TBI
