1. Using your Keto-BEAM

So you have your Keto-BEAM . . . Now what? 

We recommend the following best practices: 

  1. Keto-BEAM is so gentle that it can be taken on an empty stomach and during intermittent fasting . . . as always, you need to determine what works best for you.  
  2. Keto-BEAM can be taken at any time of the day; most people prefer taking it as part of their morning supplementation practices.
  3. For the 1st week, don't change your other supplementation – It’s usually best to make changes gradually, to give your body some time to adjust.
  4. Start by taking 1 oz. (1 capful) of Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST daily. Since Keto-BEAM is 100% bio-available, most people feel a boost very quickly. Don't worry if you don't feel anything right away, just keep taking them! Everyone’s body is unique and yours may need a little more time to respond.
  5. Listen to your body! If you experience Keto flu systems take an extra ½ - 1 capful of each.
  6. During the 2nd week you can begin to taper off on your other electrolyte supplementation – this is optional of course! Once your system has been “Keto-BEAMED”, you may not need any other electrolyte or micronutrient supplementation.
  7. After 2 weeks you can move to a maintenance mode and take ½ capful of Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST daily.
  8. If you are super active or engage in intense workouts, you probably burn more electrolytes. Try adding an extra ½ - cap of Electrolyze before your workouts and experience the difference.
  9. If you still have cramping or body aches, try using Keto-BEAM Insta-Lytes™ – just spray it on for an instant electrolyte infusion exactly where you need it. Spray directly on muscles before or after workouts to reduce soreness caused by lactic acid build-up.

2. Can I take Keto-BEAM with my other Supplements?

Yes, in fact Keto-BEAM will enhance the bioavailability of all of your other supplements!  

3. Do you have to take Electrolyze & Micro-BOOST together?

The answer is no, both products stand-alone. That said, Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST taken together, offer the absolute BEST electrolyte and micronutrient support for Keto . . . and Life!

  • If you are taking either one of them alone, the maintenance amount is 1-capful daily (each Bottle is approximately a 1-month supply)
  • If you take them together, the maintenance amount is ½ capful daily (the Advanced Set is approximately a 2-month supply)

4. How much does it cost to take Keto-BEAM regularly?

Taking Keto-BEAM costs way less than a cup of coffee J and even better, it gives you energy by feeding your cells, not by hyping your system!

On a maintenance amount of Keto-BEAM, you will spend about $1.00 per day. The beauty of these electrolyte and micronutrient supplements is that taking them increases the efficacy of all of the other supplementation and nutrition you take in.

Many people find that their need for other electrolyte or mineral supplementation goes away once they have loaded their system with Keto-BEAM.

5. How many milligrams (mg) of an electrolyte (Potassium, Magnesium, Sodium, Calcium, etc.) is there in Keto-BEAM?

The quantities of each element in Keto-BEAM products are measured in “parts per million” (ppm), rather than the “milligrams” (mg).  Here is the information which usually helps to understand the difference: 

Milligrams (mg) vs Parts per Million (ppm) 

In comparing our products to other supplements, people want to know how much of an electrolyte is in our products (like potassium, magnesium, sodium, calcium). Usually they are looking for an amount in milligrams (mg).   

We have a hard time answering that question, because the electrolytes (and other elements) in Keto-BEAM products are measured in Parts-per-Million (ppm). So how can consumers compare?

The answer is a little complex, but let’s give you the high points:

1. The electrolytes in Keto-BEAM products are provided in “trace” amounts that are completely dissolved and thus, 100% bio-available, immediately when you drink them!

2. When you take a 320mg pill of magnesium, your body is only able utilize about 12-20% of it, and it takes some time because your body has to dissolve it first. Whatever is not dissolved gets processed out of your body. 

3. When you take a capful of liquid Electrolyze, you get about 5.22 ppm of magnesium. 100% of that magnesium is immediately available to your body – no dissolving necessary.  The other great things is that the magnesium stays in your system much longer, eventually building up healthy levels as you continue to take Electrolyze daily. 

4. This is true of all of the trace amounts of electrolytes and micronutrients provided via Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST.  They are 100% bio-available and stay available in your system, thus providing long-lasting relief to Keto-Flu symptoms and supporting your efforts to stay in a prime-balanced state.

As always, the proof is in the pudding! Keto folks (who have tried many other electrolyte supplement solutions) report that their symptoms, e.g. lack of energy, cramping, body aches, headaches, sleep problems, and other Keto flu symptoms have resolved after taking Keto-BEAM Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST daily (just ½ to 1 capful).

6. What are Trace Electrolytes and Minerals? 

Trace electrolytes and minerals are chemical elements whose concentration (or other measure of amount) is very low and thus considered a "trace amount". Your body needs trace electrolytes and minerals to function properly and these elements are regularly depleted through the body’s expenditure of energy.

It is important to understand that the body, at a cellular level, can only utilize electrolytes and minerals when they are in these micro or “trace” configurations. When the body is given a powdered electrolyte or mineral, it must first break it down into a micro or “trace” elements before it can be utilized.

Thus, the power of Keto-BEAM – liquid electrolytes and micronutrients that are 100% bio-available and immediately ready for your body to utilize them.

7. What are Fulvic & Humic Complexes?

Fulvic and humic complexes are naturally occurring substances that are the by-product of decomposed fresh water plants. They are the strongest electrolytes known to man and they are the absolute best anti-oxidants available.

Fulvic & Humic Complexes are used by every plant and animal on earth to optimize cellular nutrition and to support systemic detoxification.  

For those of you who are scientifically inclined, the actual process of creating Fulvic Complexes requires multiple, specific, microbes to metabolize plants and excrete substances, all in very specific order. This process breaks down plants into their “trace” components and results in Fulvic & Humic Complexes

These complexes work in a beautifully concerted manner:  

  • Fulvic Complexes, which are super small (compared to a single cell), carry nutrients into your cells and toxins out of your cells. Fulvic Complexes are the delivery vehicles for your cells.
  • Humic Complexes which are very large (compared to a cell) gather and then rid your body of toxins, bio-waste, free radicals and heavy metals. Humic Complexes are the janitors for your body.

8. Are Keto-BEAM products organic?

Yes! Keto-BEAM products are completely organic. In fact, because they are made from rain forests that decomposed millions of years ago, they are free of the environmental toxins that are present in our modern environment.  

9. My weight loss has stalled, even though I am in ketosis, will Keto-BEAM help me start losing weight again?

Here are some important facts that contribute to the Keto-Stall:

·         It takes more energy to metabolize fats then carbohydrates!

·         When you are not eating carbohydrates you are missing micronutrients that are usually taken in via carbs.

·         Your cells REQUIRE a diverse set of micronutrients to generate energy.

·         When those micronutrients are not available, your cells produce a small fraction of the energy you need.

The “Keto Stall” is often accompanied by low energy. Many people have experienced this.

THE SOLUTION: 

Use Keto-BEAM to provide the micronutrients and electrolytes your cells need for optimal operation.

Keto-BEAM’s 100% bio-available, liquid, ionized format allows your body’s cells to immediately  utilize the electrolytes, minerals and micronutrients in the products.

10. Is Keto-BEAM good for kids?

Yes, Keto-BEAM is safe for kids. We all need to restore electrolytes and minerals including children! Simply adjust the recommended daily amount for the size/weight of your child. For example: the suggested amount for a 170lb adult is 1/2 oz. So, a small child (20-40 lbs) might only need a dropperful. Don't worry too much about exact amounts. We are all of us mineral deficient and the trace minerals in our products are in amounts that don't create system imbalances. Their efficacy is in their molecular structure and in their bioavailability. If you have any concerns, please check with your healthcare professional before use.

11. How many calories or carbs are there in Keto-BEAM products?

Zero calories, zero Carbs, zero chemicals, just 70+ minerals and suspended in 100% pure water.

12. Is Keto-BEAM OK to take if I am not doing Keto?

Yes, everyone needs them! We are depleted of electrolytes and minerals because our food supply is depleted of these things. Every one of your 30-100 trillion cells will be so happy.

13. How do I use Insta-Lytes?

Insta-Lytes is a 100% bio-available Electrolyte misting spray.
The Spray delivery system allows you to put electrolytes directly where you need them most. Just spray it on!
INSTA-LYTES will start working immediately as it is absorbed directly through the skin.

Here’s some pointers:
·         If you have an acute cramp, just spray it on -- most people notice relief almost immediately. It’s a great idea to keep a bottle by your bed at night if you tend to get leg cramps at night!
·         Spray it on pro-actively, before you go to bed at night, to stave off those night time cramps!
·         Have a body ache, neck ache or tight muscle? Just spray it on and feel the relief.
·         Did you have an intense workout and now are experiencing soreness related to lactic acid buildup? Spray Insta-Lytes on the area and see what happens.
·         Did you stay out in sun too long golfing, surfing, swimming or hiking? You will be amazed by the relief Insta-Lytes provides to acute sunburn.

INSTA-LYTES has no scent and is composed of nothing but electrolytes, trace minerals amino acids and pure ionized water.

14. Will Keto-BEAM Break a Fast?

The first thing to know about our products is that the don't break a fast.

Keto-BEAM is made from humic and fulvic complexes and pure water and NOTHING else!

No additives, no sweeteners, no fillers, nothing that would break a fast.

15. Are there BCAAs in Keto-BEAM:

It is important to understand that the amino acids in our products (like the electrolytes and minerals in our products) are in trace amounts and are a naturally occurring part of the humic and fulvic complexes that our products are made from – they are not added in mega does formats.

The trace amounts of naturally occurring (not added) amino acids in our products, are in such small amounts that they don't break a fast. Instead, they provide natural cellular support throughout a fast, for cellular nutrition, detoxification and healing.

For this reason, Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST are the ideal support for a fasting.

16. Are Keto-BEAM Trace Minerals Safe?

Here are the basics:

ALL the minerals in our products exist naturally everywhere -- this is a natural thing, as earth and our bodies, are literally made of minerals!

It is only when humans uses minerals, in unnatural concentrated quantities, such as in manufacturing processes, that these minerals become toxic. Many of the minerals you mentioned, like tin, nickel, silver, barium bromine, etc. are used in the manufacture of all sorts of things including building materials, computer chips, fertilizers, detergents, even kitty litter. The amounts used in these manufacturing processes are artificially concentrated amounts, which when tossed into landfill, leach into soils and the environment in unnatural quantities and can be toxic.

The trace minerals in our products are a naturally occurring part of the humic and fulvic complexes from which our products are derived!  These complexes are a natural result of decomposed plants.   One of the great things about the plant-based mineral complexes (humic and fulvic) in Keto-BEAM, is that they are derived from ANCIENT plant deposits, so they have not come into contact with current environmental contaminants. AND they are NOT, in any way, a result of contamination from unnatural forms of environmental pollution.  

It is important to understand that there are, naturally, the same kinds of trace minerals in the foods we eat regularly. In fact, we NEED these trace minerals. They are absolutely key to our health!

So, we are on a mission to help people understand Trace Minerals and how they are used at a cellular level, by every plant and animal on EARTH -- to uptake nutrients into the cells and also to detox our systems. The depletion of these trace minerals contributes to many chronic issues including all sorts of inflammation and system imbalances that are being experienced by so many people.  

We have a very interesting white paper that talks in-depth about the humic and fulvic substances from which our products are derived. Feel free to email caroline@keto-beam.com and request a copy of that.

17. How can I know which Keto-BEAM product to order?

Please note that the 2 bottles together actually cost the same per day as taking just one. That is because when you use just one, you take a FULL ounce, but when you take both, you take ½ ounce of each. So, 2 bottles, is a 2-month supply. To take both requires a larger up-front investment, but costs the same over time, as taking just one.

If you still just want to order one, we would recommend:

  • Electrolyze if you are having issues with energy
  • Micro-BOOST if you are having issues with body aches, headaches, or cramping.

18. What is the difference between Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST?

Click here to access a poster that provides a quick overview of the differences between Keto-BEAM’s Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST products.

Here is a quick overview:

Electrolyze is primarily composed of “Fulvic” mineral complexes. The Fulvic complexes are super small molecules that provide inter-cellular transport for nutritional elements (into the cells) and bio-waste (out of the cells). Fulvic complexes provide many benefits in the body – see the attached for some details on that.

Micro-BOOST is primarily composed of the “Humic” mineral complexes. The Humic complexes are large molecules that are extra-cellular (meaning they don't enter the cells but stay outside the cells). They are super-charged molecules that attract, through their electrical charge, bio-waste, free radicals and heavy metals. They ultimately carry bio-waste out of the body. Thus, we call them “Nature’s Janitor”. Micro-BOOST does have some the of Fulvic complex in it also, making it the best product to take if one was only going to take one of our products.


19. Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) in Keto-BEAM

People usually ask about the BCAAs in our products because they are concerned that Keto-BEAM will break a fast. So, the first thing to know about our products is that they don't break a fast.

It is important to understand that the amino acids in our products (like the electrolytes and minerals in our products) are in trace amounts and are a naturally occurring part of the humic and fulvic complexes that our products are made from.

People who are fasting don't want to take mega-doses of BCAAs (in pill or powder form) because they can break their fast.

The trace amounts of naturally occurring (not added) amino acids in our products are in such small amounts that they don't break a fast. Instead, they provide cellular support throughout a fast, for cellular nutrition, detoxification and healing. For this reason, Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST are the ideal support for a fasting.

20. Why should Keto-BEAM not be taken with chlorinated water?

This is because the fulvic and humic complexes react chemically with Chlorine, which breaks down the efficacy of the complexes. It is fine if a person who is using Keto-BEAM drinks chlorinated water at other times, it is just not at recommended to mix Keto-BEAM with chlorinated water. 

One way to get unchlorinated water affordably is to get a countertop filtered pitcher like Brita which is available inexpensively on many websites and in stores: https://www.brita.com/


21. Why do Keto-BEAM liquid products taste like water?

Many people wonder how a product that is chock full of 70+ electrolytes, minerals, micronutrients, amino acids and B-vitamins can taste like water! Most other liquid electrolyte supplements taste salty and mineral supplements have a bitter taste and are hard to consume! So how is it that Keto-BEAM tastes so good!

There are 2 important factors:

  1. Plant-based - The Fulvic/Humic complexes, from which our products are made, are plant-based and have very little taste. If you want to check this out, open up one of our Electro-BOOST capsules and taste the powder inside. It has very little taste. Many electrolyte supplements are made from salts, which just don’t taste great. Keto-BEAM electrolytes are composed of unique, natural complexes that are chock-full of mother nature’s electrolytes, minerals and micronutrients, without the taste associated with other manufactured, mega-dose supplements.
  2. Purity - Our liquid products use the same powder that is in our Electro-BOOST capsules, but ionize it (dissolve it down into its chemical components) and bind it to pure H20. There is absolutely nothing but completely natural plant-based fulvic/humic complexes and water in our liquid products.
  3. Processing - There are absolutely no chemicals used in our proprietary process.
  4. Trace Amounts – Most liquid electrolyte and mineral products provide “mega-dose” formatted electrolytes/minerals. The body is not able to utilize these mega-doses, as they are usually delivered with flavors, to mask their bad taste. Once flavoring has been added, the body has to take the product through a lengthy digestion process, during which most of the actual electrolyte/mineral is lost (75-80-%!).

The trace minerals and electrolytes in Keto-BEAM liquid products naturally have very little taste, yet in their ionized form, they enable the body to IMMEDIATELY utilize them at a cellular level.

22. How is Electro-BOOST different then Keto-BEAM’s liquid products?

Electro-BOOST is a powdered form of BOTH Electrolyze and Micro-BOOST, sealed in a capsule for easy consumption.  

Because the capsule is made from a powder, it is not as bioavailable and does require digestion before it enters your circulation. However, it is much more concentrated, so it works very well.

Just one capsule per day provides all of the electrolyte and micronutrient supplementation necessary for healthy ketosis and as a great cellular support for LIFE. If a person is an athlete or super active, they may find that 2 capsules per day works better for them.

We always recommend Keto-BEAM liquid supplements as the GOLD Standard, but Electro-BOOST capsules are great for travel, for people that find taking a capsule easier or for people with a tight budget.

23. Can I take Keto-BEAM while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Absolutely. The essential minerals in Keto-BEAM are a great addition to support optimal gestation and lactation. As always, check with your health practitioner to confirm what's right for you.

24.  Are the packing peanuts we use biodegradable?

Yes, our packing peanuts are fully biodegradable. They are made from potato starch. You can see this by putting one in a glass of water and watching it completely dissolve.
