Discover ketones as the 4th fuel of the body—and a key to unlocking peak mental and physical performance.

Meet our guest

Michael Brandt explored ketones through fasting and endurance running. Recognizing their performance-enhancing potential, HVMN created a bioavailable ketone drink. In 2022, they launched it commercially, and it's now available in grocery stores and online. The U.S. Department of Defense saw the potential of ketones to support physical and mental stamina in soldiers and awarded HVMN a $6M grant to study their therapeutic effects.
