dc.description.abstractKetones, molecules produced as a byproduct of fat breakdown by the body, can be used as an alternate source of energy when glucose supplies are low. Several studies have shown that ketones may help with cognitive recovery and motor learning. This study examined the effects of both acute and chronic ketone supplementation on golf putting accuracy in middle-aged adults to determine if elevated circulating ketone levels improved accuracy. The results demonstrate no significant differences between the putting accuracy of the ketone group or placebo group. Data collection for this study will be continued to determine if a measurable difference can be seen with more data.
