Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Ketone Monoester
Weight-adjusted dose of 3-OHB Monoester (KetoneAID KE4, Virginia, US) 0.5 g/kg (max 50 g)
Dietary Supplement: KetoneAid KE4 Pro Monoester
A dietary supplement containing ketone monoester.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo Treatment
Maltodextrin-based placebo (Science In Sport, UK) in isocaloric dose to the experimental arm.
Dietary Supplement: Science in Sport Go Enegy
Dosis isocaloric to the KetoneAid Arm

Active Comparator: Ketone Monoester in presence of low-dose insulin clamp
Same as experimental arm, but in the presence of a low-dose insulin clamp to suppress free fatty acid metabolism
Dietary Supplement: KetoneAid KE4 Pro Monoester
A dietary supplement containing ketone monoester.




Primary Outcome Measures :

    Change in blood Ketones measured by venous blood samples

  3. Blood pH [ Time Frame: 3 hours ]
    Change in venous blood pH during the study period
