What it is
Beta-hydroxybutyrate, or BHB, is a small molecule the body makes naturally when it breaks down fat for fuel. Supplement makers can produce it and bind it to minerals to make a stable powder. These mineral forms are called BHB salts.
Where it comes from
Makers produce BHB in a lab and bind it to calcium, magnesium or sodium. The JelluTide label lists all three, written as BHB calcium, magnesium and sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate salts, inside the 525 mg blend.
Why it is in JelluTide
BHB salts sit beside apple cider vinegar in the JelluTide blend.* The Supplement Facts panel on your JelluTide bottle lists the exact formula and amounts. BHB Explained shows what the word means in plain terms.
