NASA looked at ketogenic diets for astronauts and would need supplemental ketones in space. Ketones support fetal organ development, and the ratio of D to L ketone isomers matters: a 50:50 mix is suggested for weight loss.

And then he said he was also working with NASA on their mission to go to Mars, trying to get the astronauts maybe on a ketogenic diet, but again, same thing, they would need supplements. So I knew nothing about keto. I said, dom, I know nothing. So what the hell is a ketone? He said, well, let me make it simple. When you were being born in your mom's wound, when your heart, brain and all the major organs are being developed, that's a ketone. If I was going to use ketones, is there a form of it that would be superior? Yeah, depending on what you want to do. Yeah. So, for example, if you were going to want to lose weight and you'd want to probably do a combination of 50, 50 D and L if you were looking to do. And Gary, you can get into this, but each depending on again, performance, brain, longevity, it's going to be a different ratio of D to L.
