Episode 254: Exploring the Frontiers of Ketone Science and Brain Health with Mike Chesne from Tecton Life

Join me, Dr. Mike T. Nelson, on the Flex Diet Podcast, where we explore the fascinating world of exogenous ketones with Tecton's innovation head, Mike Chesney. Listen in as we unravel the science behind ketone esters, their remarkable ability to enhance cognitive function as an energizing alternative to caffeine, and their emerging role in disease management. We dissect the cutting-edge research and development propelling this field forward, and I share my unique perspective as a scientific advisor and ambassador for Tecton.
