Patent ID: 11793778

Abstract:
Compositions for delivering ketone bodies to a subject include one or more beta-hydroxybutyrate salts, one or more acetoacetate salts, beta-hydroxybutyric acid, and optionally acetoacetic acid. The compositions may optionally include one or more ketone body esters, such as one or more beta-hydroxybutyrate esters and/or one or more acetoacetate esters. An example composition contains about 2% to about 98% on a molar basis of the one or more beta-hydroxybutyrate salts and the one or more acetoacetate salts, about 2% to about 98% on a molar basis of the beta-hydroxybutyrate free acid and optionally the acetoacetate free acid, and optionally about 2% to about 98% on a molar basis of one or more ketone body esters.
