  • A ketogenic diet lowers myocardial fatty acid oxidation but does not affect oxygen consumption: a study in overweight humans Thien Vinh Luong Mette Glavind Bülow Pedersen Caroline Bruun Abild Stephen C. Cunnane Etienne Croteau Katrine Meyer Lauritsen Mette Louise Gram Kjærulff Lars Poulsen Tolbod Niels Møller Esben Søndergaard Lars Christian Gormsen Obesity AbstractObjectiveA ketogenic diet (KD) characterized by very low carbohydrate intake and high fat consumption may simultaneously induce weight loss and be cardioprotective. The “thrifty substrate hypothesis” posits that ketone bodies are more energy efficient compared with other cardiac oxidative substrates such as fatty acids. This work aimed to study whether a KD with presumed increased myocardial ketone body utilization reduces cardiac fatty acid uptake and oxidation, resulting in decreased myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2).MethodsThis randomized controlled crossover trial examined 11 individuals with overweight or obesity on two occasions: (1) after a KD and (2) after a standard diet. Myocardial free fatty acid (FFA) oxidation, uptake, and esterification rate were measured using dynamic [11C]palmitate positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography, whereas MVO2 and myocardial external efficiency (MEE) were measured using dynamic [11C]acetate PET.ResultsThe KD increased plasma β‐hydroxybutyrate, reduced myocardial FFA oxidation (p < 0.01) and uptake (p = 0.03), and increased FFA esterification (p = 0.03). No changes were observed in MVO2 (p = 0.2) or MEE (p = 0.87).ConclusionsA KD significantly reduced myocardial FFA uptake and oxidation, presumably by increasing ketone body oxidation. However, this change in cardiac substrate utilization did not improve MVO2, speaking against the thrifty substrate hypothesis.image 10.1002/oby.23967 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/
