Abstract
Compositions and methods for inducing weight loss, fat loss, maintaining weight or fat loss, suppressing appetite, reducing calorie intake, reducing weight gain, decreasing feed efficiency, increasing metabolic inefficiency, increasing energy expenditure, increasing thermogenesis and/or resetting metabolic set are disclosed. The compositions have a therapeutically effective amount of a ketogenic supplement, e.g., a ketone diesters, such as R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate. Compositions of one or more beta-hydroxybutyrate, beta-hydroxybutyrate salt, and medium chain triglycerides are also disclosed.

A composition comprising:
- R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate diester in a therapeutically effective amount to induce weight loss, induce fat loss, and/or maintain the weight or fat loss, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier,
- wherein the composition is a food with about 10-30% by weight R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate diester.
A composition comprising:
- R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate diester in a therapeutically effective amount to suppress appetite, reduce calorie intake, or reduce weight gain, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier,
- wherein the composition is a food with about 10-30% by weight R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate diester.
A composition comprising:
- R,S 1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate diester in a therapeutically effective amount to decrease feed efficiency, increase metabolic inefficiency, increase energy expenditure, increase thermogenesis and/or reset metabolic set point, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier,
