Sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate betaine complex - One improved form of Ketone metal salts.

Cate:News Center Time:2024-12-04

As we all know, D-beta-hydroxybutyrate (D-BHB) is the ketone your body produces from fat to use as energy. Therefore, the exogenous ketone supplement has been developed for health and fitness. And, BHB metal salts in ketone supplement market is increasing faster and faster. 

On this background, Sodium BHB betaine complex, one new improved BHB metal salt has been developed by us.


Betaine (trimethylglycine) is a natural alkaloid, which widely exists in animals, plants and microorganisms, and plays a physiological role as an osmotic pressure regulator and a methyl donor. Its regulation of osmotic pressure can protect cells. proteins and enzymes from environmental stress; and as a methyl donor, it can regulate a liver fat metabolism and protect livers. Betaine also contributes to antioxidation and neuroprotection, meanwhile,serves as an important component of drugs and dietary supplements for improving and treating cardiovascular diseases. “In the food industry, betaine is widely used in production of food and fruit juice because of its moderate taste and colorless appearance. Due to its good stability, water solubility and moisture retention, betaine is also used in cosmetics and the like.

It is being formulated for a BHB metal salt improvement purpose (BHB metal salt is refer to Sodium BHB etc.), it is aimed at combining the benefits of sodium BHB (for ketone supplementation) and betaine (for osmoregulation, methylation support, etc.)

  • Dual Benefit: Combining the ketogenic effects of BHB with the health benefits of betaine, which include:

    • Methylation Support: Betaine is crucial for methylation processes, potentially aiding in liver health, reducing homocysteine levels, and supporting heart health.

    • Hydration and Osmoprotection: Betaine's role in osmoregulation could offer benefits in maintaining cellular hydration or preventing dehydration in ketogenic states.

    • Performance and Recovery: Betaine has been linked to improved physical performance, muscle endurance, and recovery, which could synergize with BHB's energy provision.

  • Enhancing ketone utilization while also supporting liver function, muscle health, and cardiovascular system through betaine's actions.

  • Providing a more comprehensive approach to ketogenic supplementation by addressing potential side effects like dehydration or muscle cramps.
