Ketones and Heart Failure
The following is a list of published journal articles related to Heart Failure and the effect that ketone bodies have on the failing heart. These articles are in support of the hypothesis that ketone bodies have a positive effect on failing hearts. This is not medical advice, only a collection of articles that I have come across.
