Brief Summary: It is well established that the brain is capable of consuming ketone bodies especially during low glucose availability eg fasting Cerebral metabolism of ketone bodies depends on passage of the blood brain barrier and especially the global blood concentration of ketone bodies

Ketone bodies can be administered exogenously and the most commonly used in clinical trials is 3-hydroxybutyrate 3-OHB 3-OHB is carried by simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion through several monocarboxylic acid transporters MCTs across the blood-brain barrier

To our knowledge no studies in human adults exist that concurrently measure 3-OHB concentrations in blood and cerebrospinal fluid CSF after ingestion or infusion of exogenous ketone supplementation necessitating further study

Aims

The 3-OHB CSFblood ratio after oral ingestion of 30 g ketone ester - primary endpoint
The window of effect Ketone supplementation 1 h or 2 h before CSF sampling
If concentration measurements by point-of-care testing are non-inferior to mass spectrometry
If acute 3-OHB ingestion increases plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor BDNF levels
