S-β-hydroxybutyrate esters for improving metabolic function

Compositions for improving metabolic function in a subject include optically pure S-beta-hydroxybutyrate or non-racemic mixtures enriched with the S-enantiomer. S-beta-hydroxybutyrate in pure or enriched form provides energy to the heart, dilates the arteries, decreases blood pressure and systemic vascular resistance, and increases cardiac output. S-Beta-hydroxybutyric acid is more rapidly absorbed and utilized by the body than salts or esters, enhances taste, and reduces the need to include citric acid or other edible acids. S-Beta-hydroxybutyrate salts are more slowly absorbed and utilized by the body and provide one or more electrolytes. S-Beta-hydroxybutyrate esters provide more controlled release without adding electrolytes. Compositions for improving heart function in a subject may contain a dietetically or pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and optically pure S-beta-hydroxybutyrate or non-racemic mixture enriched with S-beta-hydroxybutyrate, wherein the compositions contain from about 50.5% to 100% by enantiomeric equivalents of S-beta-hydroxybutyrate and from about 49.5% to 0% by enantiomeric equivalents of R-beta-hydroxybutyrate.
