Made by Pioneers
in Energy Science
With the release of H.V.M.N. Ketone Ester, we were the first to bring drinkable ketones to the world. Since our first iteration, we’ve been working on making ketones more efficient, effective, and powerful than ever before—leading to Ketone-IQ.
Our ketone technology is widely used by professional athletes, including Olympic competitors, and the majority of teams competing in the Tour de France. In fact, Italian cyclist Vittoria Bussi broke the UCI Hour world record on 2018-09-13 while fueling with H.V.M.N. Ketone.
H.V.M.N.’s ketone technology is being actively researched by academic institutions for multiple applications. Ketone-IQ may play a role in neurodegenerative disease treatment, cancer research, diabetes management, and many other applications.
Obsessively optimizing ketone drinks since 2016

Frequently asked questions
How are Ketone-IQ No Caffeine & Ketone-IQ +Caffeine different?
While both products offer the amazing-feeling energy that only ketones can supply, Ketone-IQ + Caffeine has 5g of ketones alongside 100mg of natural caffeine derived from green tea and has a smoother, fruitier flavor. Ketone-IQ No Caffeine has double the ketones (10g) compared to Ketone-IQ + Caffeine, and no caffeine. Both are sugar-free, and contain no artificial flavors or colors. Many users enjoy both and use them on different occasions, sometimes doubling up to take on the big days.
How does Ketone-IQ +Caffeine compare to other energy shots?
The most prominent difference between Ketone-IQ +Caffeine and other energy shots is the presence of ketones. Thanks to the natural energy from ketones, Ketone-IQ can help get you energized and keep you energized with less than half the caffeine of typical energy shots.*
Ketone-IQ has 100mg of natural caffeine derived from green tea, while typical energy shots contain over 200mg of synthetic caffeine - that’s over two cups of coffee worth of caffeine! The natural ketones in Ketone-IQ are made through a sustainable fermentation process. Think: high-tech, non-GMO kombucha. Ketone-IQ + Caffeine is for anyone who wants a better, cleaner energy shot.
Where can I find Ketone-IQ +Caffeine in stores?
Take a look at our Store Locator to find the retailer nearest to you.
Is Ketone-IQ +Caffeine suitable for everyone?
Ketones are simply a healthy energy source, and all our Ketone-IQ products fit any lifestyle and nutrition plan, keto or not.
Ketone-IQ + Caffeine isn’t recommended for children, pregnant or nursing women, and people with caffeine sensitivities.
Frequently asked questions
What are the different ways people can raise their ketones?
There are 2 ways to raise your ketones:
- Endogenous ketosis (your body makes the ketones through a process called ketogenesis), or
- Exogenous ketosis (the ketones come from outside your body, e.g. Ketone-IQ or other ketone supplements).
These two methods are not mutually exclusive.
To get into endogenous ketosis, people engage in endurance exercise, follow low-carb/"keto" diets, or fast/starve. These activities cause blood glucose levels to drop and deplete glycogen (sugar) stores. Your body responds to the dip in energy by ramping up ketogenesis, or the breakdown of fat to make ketones to use for energy.
Ketones are an ultra-efficient fuel, especially for our brains. They’re evolutionarily designed to keep us razor-sharp and at peak performance between meals. But extended endogenous ketosis (e.g., keto diet) is hard to maintain long term. Often, it isn’t optimal for athletic or mental performance.
Enter Ketone Supplements (like Ketone-IQ). These are called Exogenous Ketones ("exo" meaning "external"). These supplements quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores.

How does Ketone-IQ compare to other Ketone Supplements?
There are 4 types of Ketone Supplements. You can read the full comparison here.
Here’s a summary, ranked from least effective to most effective:
- Ketone Diol (Ketone-IQ)
- Through our $6MM contract with the United States Department of Defense Special Operations Command (US DOD SOCOM), we found that Ketone Diols are ideal for physically and cognitively demanding tasks, unlike HVMN Ketone V1, which was a Ketone Ester.
- Ketone-IQ® contains a pure 100% Ketone Diol called R-1,3-Butanediol (R-1,3-BDO).
- Ketone esters are only 33-50% R-1,3-BDO; the remainder is typically BHB (too spiky) or MCT (too slow).
- R-1,3-BDO is the closest precursor to D-BHB, and it's converted directly into D-BHB with near 100% efficiency.
- Ketone-IQ has an optimal ketone curve that keeps you between 1.0 - 2.5mmol/L. This ketone range provides unparalleled efficacy, supported on the low end here, the high end here, and holistically here.
- Fast Acting: Ketone-IQ quickly raises your blood ketones above 1.0 mmol/L within 30-60 minutes.
- No Spike: Unlike ketone esters, there is no harmful initial spike above 2.5mmol/L because there's no unregulated D-BHB.
- Natural Slow Release: Ketone-IQ keeps your ketone levels elevated above 1.0mmol/L for a longer period than ketone salts or ketone esters. Your body naturally regulates the R-1,3-BDO → D-BHB process to stabilize energy levels.
- Ketone-IQ has a better taste than ketone esters (although it's still not your grandma's lemonade).
- Ketone-IQ is 1/3 the cost per gram of any ketone ester on the market.
- Ketone Salts
- These molecules combine D-BHB with a salt such as sodium, magnesium, or calcium.
- Due to their high salt content, ketone salts can cause digestive issues when taken in large doses.
- The D-BHB is quickly released into your bloodstream, which can cause a small spike followed by a crash.
- It's rare to see ketone levels above 0.5mM, and they don't last very long.
- Ketone salts are often a blend of D-BHB and L-BHB (an inactive form of the molecule), so you’re only getting half the potential benefits.
- Ketone Esters
- These molecules chain together BHBs, BHB precursors, and other keto-related molecules like MCTs.
- Ketone esters can be one ester chain long (a "monoester"), two ester chains long (a "diester"), and so on.
- Ketone esters may not be fully bioavailable if ester chains don't fully break down.
- Ketone esters quickly raise ketone levels, causing a spike that can reach 3-5mM in 30 minutes. This spike is followed by a steep crash.
- Ketone levels in this range can cause digestive issues, increased blood acidity, and performance problems.
- Ketone esters have a bitter, unpleasant taste and can cause nausea, vomiting, and digestive issues. Some people vomit immediately after taking Ketone Monoester, according to its GRAS document.
- Ketone esters can be up to three times more expensive per gram of ketone compared to Ketone Diol (discussed next).
- D-Betahydroxybutyric Acid (D-BHB)
- This is the primary ketone that our body naturally produces and uses for energy.
- It's available as a supplement, but it's very acidic and can be hard to handle in large doses. It's best to take it in small amounts.
- For a safer way to get BHB or BHB precursors, try the other ketone supplements listed below.

What results can I expect with Ketone-IQ®?
Raising your blood ketone levels can deliver numerous benefits, supported by a rapidly growing body of research. Optimal results are seen with blood ketone levels between 1.0–2.5 mmol/L, and Ketone-IQ is the most effective and cost-efficient way to keep your ketones within that range.
Below is a brief summary of ketones’ top benefits. For a deep dive of the data, read more here.
- Cognitive Performance: Ketones can cross the blood-brain barrier and generate 28% more ATP per gram than glucose. As an ultra-efficient brain fuel, they’re proven to improve focus, cognitive, and mental clarity and protect the brain from trauma, aging, and neurodegenerative diseases.
- Physical Performance: When you’re thinking sharper, you can perform better. Ketones can improve athletic performance by enhancing cognition, resulting in better reaction times and reduced fatigue. Plus, ketone supplements can support endurance and recovery for athletes; one study found that drinking ketones during a 3-week overtraining period led to a 15% increase in power output.
- Metabolic Health and Appetite: Ketones, and raising your blood ketone levels, have been shown to significantly reduce ghrelin (1), the hunger hormone. A reduced appetite makes it easier to maintain a calorie deficit and achieve and manage a healthy weight!*
Drinking exogenous ketones, including R-1,3-Butanediol, has also been shown help support in maintaining stable blood sugar levels (2, 3, 4, 5, 9).*
We recommend using Ketone-IQ in combination with healthy lifestyle choices like daily activity and being mindful of your carb and sugar intake.*

- Ketone esters have a bitter, unpleasant taste and can cause nausea, vomiting, and digestive issues. Some people vomit immediately after taking Ketone Monoester, according to its GRAS document.
- Ketone esters can be up to three times more expensive per gram of ketone compared to Ketone Diol (discussed next).
- Ketone Diol (Ketone-IQ)
- Through our $6MM contract with the United States Department of Defense Special Operations Command (US DOD SOCOM), we found that Ketone Diols are ideal for physically and cognitively demanding tasks, unlike HVMN Ketone V1, which was a Ketone Ester.
- Ketone-IQ® contains a pure 100% Ketone Diol called R-1,3-Butanediol (R-1,3-BDO).
- Ketone esters are only 33-50% R-1,3-BDO; the remainder is typically BHB (too spiky) or MCT (too slow).
- R-1,3-BDO is the closest precursor to D-BHB, and it's converted directly into D-BHB with near 100% efficiency.
- Ketone-IQ has an optimal ketone curve that keeps you between 1.0 - 2.5mmol/L. This ketone range provides unparalleled efficacy, supported on the low end here, the high end here, and holistically here.
- Fast Acting: Ketone-IQ quickly raises your blood ketones above 1.0 mmol/L within 30-60 minutes.
- No Spike: Unlike ketone esters, there is no harmful initial spike above 2.5mmol/L because there's no unregulated D-BHB.
- Natural Slow Release: Ketone-IQ keeps your ketone levels elevated above 1.0mmol/L for a longer period than ketone salts or ketone esters. Your body naturally regulates the R-1,3-BDO → D-BHB process to stabilize energy levels.
- Ketone-IQ has a better taste than ketone esters (although it's still not your grandma's lemonade).
- Ketone-IQ is 1/3 the cost per gram of any ketone ester on the market.

Ketone-IQ has definitely enhanced my energy levels and mental clarity. I feel as though I have clean energy for hours on end without jitters or crashes, which is nice for working and working out. My mental focus has even been improved.
It also helps with cravings and satisfies my dietary requirements as it is sugar-free, non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free.
In general, Ketone-IQ is a great supplement to keep going for energy and better cognitive function. Would recommend.

Great stuff. Provides the boost I need after my first 9 holes of golf and enables me to stay focused for the last 9 holes.

As someone that follows a Keto lifestyle, it’s important to find quick fuel that helps me push through difficult training sessions such as half marathons, full marathons, or grueling CrossFit sessions. These intense training sessions put the body through intense oxidative stress, and relying on carbohydrate metabolism doubles that oxidative stress and exacerbates inflammation. At almost 45 years old, I don’t need any more problems trying to recover.

I work long hours and Ketone-IQ provides much needed energy boost and as an added bonus decreased appetite during my fasting hours. It is an excellent product with clean ingredients that delivers as advertised. You won’t be disappointed.

Ketone IQ has become part of my daily routine. I take it in the morning, during intermittent fasting, and sometimes during training, usually mixed with my sports drink. It keeps my energy and focus steady and gives me that extra edge when I need it. I found out the Dutch cycling team Visma | Lease a Bike uses it too, which made me curious to try it. Since then, I’ve really noticed a difference in both my performance and recovery.
