Product Safety: Risk Profile:
Electrolyte Imbalance:

High levels of exogenous ketones containing sodium, calcium, and magnesium can affect electrolyte balance, potentially leading to hypernatremia, hypercalcemia, or hypermagnesemia, especially in those with impaired renal function.
Gastrointestinal Distress:

Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) salts may cause nausea, diarrhea, or stomach discomfort, especially in higher doses.
Dehydration:

Sodium content may increase water loss through the kidneys, raising the risk of dehydration.
Hypoglycemia:

Although not common, individuals with blood sugar regulation issues, such as those with diabetes, may experience hypoglycemia due to the metabolic shift induced by exogenous ketones.
Contraindications:
Renal Impairment:

Patients with chronic kidney disease or impaired renal function may be unable to properly excrete the excess electrolytes (sodium, calcium, magnesium) present in this formulation, increasing the risk of hyperkalemia and other complications.
Cardiovascular Conditions:

Individuals with hypertension or a history of cardiovascular disease should be cautious due to the sodium content, which may exacerbate high blood pressure.
Pregnancy and Lactation:

Not recommended for use during pregnancy or lactation due to limited safety data on exogenous ketone use in these populations.
Diabetes:

Individuals on insulin or glucose-lowering medications should use caution due to the potential for inducing hypoglycemia.
Safety Considerations:
Dosing:

Adherence to recommended dosage is critical to avoid excessive intake of electrolytes, particularly sodium and calcium.
Hydration:

Users should maintain adequate hydration to prevent dehydration, especially in conjunction with the sodium content.
Gradual Introduction:

To minimize gastrointestinal distress, the product should be introduced gradually, especially for individuals new to exogenous ketones.
Monitoring:

Individuals with existing health conditions should consult healthcare professionals before starting, and regular monitoring of electrolytes is advisable for those at risk of imbalances.
Adverse Events:
Common:

Gastrointestinal issues (nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort)
Mild headache due to dehydration or electrolyte shifts
Fatigue during initial use, as the body adjusts to ketosis
Rare:

Hypernatremia, hypercalcemia, or hypermagnesemia in individuals with pre-existing electrolyte disorders or kidney impairment
Hypoglycemia in individuals with diabetes or blood sugar sensitivity
Allergic Reactions:

Rare allergic responses to natural flavorings or Stevia Leaf Extract may occur, though the risk is considered low.
