Regional cerebral effects of ketone body infusion with 3-hydroxybutyrate in humans: Reduced glucose uptake, unchanged oxygen consumption and increased blood flow by positron emission tomography. A randomized, controlled trial

Ketone bodies are neuroprotective in neurological disorders such as epilepsy. We randomly studied nine healthy human subjects twice—with and without continuous infusion of 3-hydroxybutyrate–to define potential underlying mechanisms, assessed regionally (parietal, occipital, temporal, cortical grey,...
