Ketones are a super efficient source of fuel for your brain , that leaves you feeling energized and clear-headed. Ketones help military operators increase their cognitive function during stressful and demanding missions. Your body normally makes its own ketones when you eat low-carb, fast, or do extend the exercise. The core innovation of Ketone-IQ is that it delivers the same ketone fuel in an affordable drink, that’s now available at hvmn.com, Amazon, Sprouts, and select gyms, stores, and cafes.
