KetoneAid KE4 is the fastest-acting exogenous ketone supplement available. It is super concentrated with 50% Ketone Esters (30g of active ketones).
With KetoneAid KE4 you can achieve very high ketone levels without the excessive salt load (up to 6.0 mMol - depending on what your baseline is.)
Moreover, KetoneAid KE4 raises ketone levels faster, to the highest peak, and sustains them longer than any MCT Oil or Ketone Salts (see chart below).
KetoneAid KE1 is more diluted compared to KE4. It is a combination of 50% Ketone Ester (2.5g of active ketones) and 50% Ketone Salts (this is 80% less total salt versus most ketone salts).
KE1 contains 5g of ketones per bottle, while KE4 contains 30g of ketones per bottle. KE1 is a a more palatable option compared to KE4, but less concentrated. Both offer about a 1mm increase in blood ketone levels per 5 grams of ketones.
KE1 is Perfect for those who can't take the strong taste of KE4 and want a more convenient ready-to-drink bottle. Although some people get both.
