There are many different products on the market that all live up to the name of the exogenous ketogenic supplement. They often contain the active ingredient ketone beta-hydroxybutyrate, and many also contain MCT oil, a fat found in coconut and palm oil, combined with salt and potassium.

The two most common keto diet pills are:

Ketoesters, usually sold in liquid form, are more commonly used in research settings than consumer products.

Ketone salts, usually sold as powders made from ketones mixed with other chemicals such as potassium, magnesium, sodium, or calcium.

Do Keto Pills Work?

The idea is that these supplements can help you get into ketosis faster; it usually takes anywhere from two days to a little over a week to reach the fat-burning state. Once you're in ketosis, a supplement can help you stay there. In theory, this all means you might lose weight faster.

The theory makes a lot of sense. If you need ketone bodies to get into ketosis, adding them as a supplement should help you get there more easily.
