Brief Summary: Polycystic ovary syndrome PCOS affects 1 in 5 females of reproductive age Commonly characterized as a disorder of infertility PCOS is often accompanied by 3 potent cardiovascular disease CVD risk factors insulin resistance endothelial dysfunction and elevated blood pressure Accordingly PCOS is associated with the development of CVD the second leading cause of death in females in Canada However effective treatments to improve cardiovascular health in PCOS are lacking

Exogenous ketone monoester KME ingestion has been shown to improves outcomes associated with insulin resistance endothelial function and blood pressure regulation in healthy individuals and individuals predisposed to CVD Therefore oral ketone supplements offer a practical and effective strategy for improving cardiovascular health however this treatment has yet to be evaluated in PCOS

Therefore the overall goal of this project is to employ KME ingestion to improve markers of cardiovascular health in females with PCOS

On two different days participants will consume either a beverage containing a ketone supplement or a beverage containing a placebo supplement The objectives are to compare responses between KME and placebo ingestion and examine all outcomes related to cardiovascular health in females with PCOS in comparison with female controls of similar age and body mass index The effects of KME ingestion will be quantified on 1 glycemic control during an oral glucose tolerance test 2 endothelial function using the flow-mediated dilation test 3 blood pressure and acute blood pressure regulation and 4 hemodynamic responses to acute exercise
