Today's episode of The Qualys is from podcast #05 – Dom D’Agostino, Ph.D.: ketosis, n=1, exogenous ketones, HBOT, seizures, and cancer.
The Qualys is a subscriber-exclusive podcast, released Tuesday through Friday, and published exclusively on our private, subscriber-only podcast feed. Qualys is short-hand for “qualifying round,” which are typically the fastest laps driven in a race car—done before the race to determine starting position on the grid for race day. The Qualys are short (i.e., “fast”), typically less than ten minutes, and highlight the best questions, topics, and tactics discussed on The Drive.
Occasionally, we will also release an episode on the main podcast feed for non-subscribers, which is what you are listening to now.

0:40.9 | Maybe explain for people what the difference is between a salt and an ester. |
0:44.5 | So we'll leave a cedo acetate out of that for a moment. |
0:46.9 | Yeah. |
0:47.9 | But if you talk about beta hydroxy butyrate. |
0:49.5 | But you can have a cedo acetate salt too, so I can mention that. |
0:52.3 | I didn't know that. |
0:53.3 | I thought it was only a die ester. |
0:54.3 | So that's, we'll definitely want to hear about that. |
0:55.9 | So on the BHB front, people are sort of inundated with ketone salts, ketone esters, and then |
1:01.8 | a whole bunch of complete weird stuff, like raspberry ketones and stuff. |
1:05.4 | But let's just leave the nonsense off the table. |
1:08.1 | But if you just talk about comparing a BHB ester to a BHB salt, what's the chemical difference? |
1:13.4 | Yeah. |
1:14.4 | So a salt is just an ionic bond between the ketone molecule and beta hydroxy butyrate, |
