The shift
Your last meal winds down and insulin starts to fall. The body begins moving off sugar as its main fuel.
What helps Trace
A routine built for the fasting state, grounded in published human research.
Made for fasting
A fast is not a smaller version of a fed day. Minerals leave faster, hunger peaks on a schedule, and focus has to come from a different fuel. Kētos is a supplement stack formulated for that physiology: Trace carries hydration across the hours, and Core steadies the hardest ones.
Kētos is built to support the fast, every hour of it. There's a formula for you if you:
The fasting system
Each stretch of the fast asks your body for something different. Here is what changes, hour by hour, and where the routine meets it.
Your last meal winds down and insulin starts to fall. The body begins moving off sugar as its main fuel.
What helps Trace
Hunger and cravings tend to peak, minerals keep leaving, and focus gets harder to hold. The hardest stretch of the fast.
What helps Core
The body settles into fat for fuel and the benefits people fast for deepen. Staying hydrated is what carries you here.
What helps Trace
Metabolism is a matter of when. Core meets the hardest hours of the morning, and Trace carries minerals across the whole fast.
Two products, each built for a different stretch of the fast. Start with one, or run them together.
The fasting physiology
For the first hours after a meal your body runs on glucose. As a fast continues it shifts its main fuel to fat and ketones. That crossover, around 12 to 16 hours in, is the metabolic switch.
The ingredients
Satiereal saffron, SHR-5 rhodiola, L-theanine, and the rest were each selected for the published human research behind them, not for a label full of names.
Bioavailable forms
Trace buffers its minerals with citrate and pairs them with BetaPower betaine. Core uses standardized extracts like Satiereal saffron and SHR-5 rhodiola. The form is the difference between a name on a label and a nutrient your body absorbs.
The same citrate carrier. The mineral ion is what changes.
Tested every batch
Made in a cGMP-registered facility in the USA and screened for what is on the label and what should not be. The certificate of analysis is on the record.
