This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
KETO-SENSE is a research study examining whether oral ketone supplements can help your body better manage blood sugar and energy use. Ketone bodies are natural molecules your liver produces during fasting or exercise, and this trial tests whether taking them as a supplement might improve insulin sensitivity and metabolism. The study will use advanced imaging and metabolism measurements to see how the supplement affects your body.
Many people struggle with insulin resistance and weight management, and current treatment options are limited. Researchers want to understand whether this medication could offer a new way to help people who are overweight or at risk for type 2 diabetes by improving how their bodies use energy and process sugar.

You would visit Aarhus University Hospital on four separate study days. During each visit, you would receive either growth hormone or salt water through an IV, plus either a ketone supplement or placebo by mouth. The research team would use advanced imaging (PET/CT scans), measure your metabolism, and take small tissue samples to understand how the treatment affects your body's energy use and insulin sensitivity.
