The "keto" lifestyle, short for ketogenic, involves a low-carbohydrate, high-fat dietary approach designed to shift the body into a state of ketosis, where it burns fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates.

Keto ACV is a 30 day supply at the recommended daily dose. Remember, each person’s keto experience and individual needs are unique, and results may manifest differently for everyone. We suggest storing your Keto ACV Gummies in the refrigerator.
What is the 'Ketogenic State'?
The ketogenic state, or ketosis, is a metabolic state where the body relies primarily on fat for fuel, instead of carbohydrates. This way of eating emphasizes healthy fats like avocados, nuts, and olive oil, while significantly reducing the intake of sugars and starches found in bread, pasta, and most fruits. Keeping your body in ketosis can be hard - doing so includes eating a restricted list of foods like meat, eggs, nuts and fish and avoiding foods like fruit, sugar, beans and high-carb veggies. And that’s why you’ve probably seen information on keto pills, keto oil and keto powders - as well as keto gummies. These different products claim they help keep your body in ketosis.
Key Ingredients in Go Keto Gummies
Most keto gummies typically contain medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), a type of saturated fat that help give your body energy, in addition to exogenous ketones. The ingredients in Keto ACV Gummies can vary, but some common components include:
- Apple Cider Vinegar Powder: Apple Cider Vinegar has a long history of traditional use for various health benefits dating back to 400 B.C.E. Both formulas include 1000 mg of apple cider vinegar powder per serving. Original Apple Cider Vinegar formula is packed with b-vitamins (B6, B9 and B12), which are known to help cellular energy production, healthy immune function, heart health, nutrient metabolism and overall well being.
- BHB Salts Blend: Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is a ketone produced by the body when in a state of ketosis and serves as an alternative energy source for the brain and body when glucose levels are low. BHB salts, or beta-hydroxybutyrate salts, are supplements designed to help increase the levels of ketones in the body. BHB salts provide an immediate source of ketones, which can help support energy levels, enhance mental clarity, and help reduce some of the transitional effects people may experience when starting a ketogenic diet. Calcium BHB, Sodium BHB, and Magnesium BHB is a BHB salts blend that can offer several benefits for those following a keto diet. Specialized Keto Apple Cider Vinegar formula features a BHB Salts blend, an exogenous ketone source designed to help support a ketogenic state.
- Pomegranate Juice Powder: Pomegranates are considered superfoods, containing lots of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are good for one's health.
- Beet Root Juice Powder: Beets are regarded as superfoods due to their high nutritional density, have a rich earthy flavor and a number of benefits that promote health.
- Pectin: Keto ACV Gummies are gelatin free, and made with pectin - a vegan friendly option.
- Tapioca Fiber: Tapioca fiber is a type of soluble dietary fiber derived from the cassava root (tapioca). It can possess prebiotic properties, supporting the body’s beneficial gut bacteria and overall digestive health.
Potential Benefits of Keto Gummies
Keto gummies are made with exogenous ketones, which is a fancy term for ketones you get from an outside source. “Your body makes ketones on its own through the foods you eat,” explains registered dietitian Beth Czerwony, RD, LD. “Keto gummies are a supplement that adds exogenous ketones into your body, which may help continue ketosis.”
There’s limited research on the benefits of keto gummies. Czerwony says potential benefits include:

- Increase weight loss.
- Improve athletic performance.
- Decrease your appetite.
Whether keto gummies or other keto supplements can actually keep you in ketosis has been inconclusive, according to research. In fact, one study explains that supplements may increase the amount of ketones too much. Ideally, your body wants to maintain an even level of ketones. And when this happens, your liver may not produce as many ketones naturally, making it harder to stay in ketosis.
Potential Risks of Keto Gummies
Before you decide to try keto gummies, it’s also worth understanding the potential risks. Czerwony says those potential risks include:
- Nausea and vomiting.
- Gastrointestinal issues, like diarrhea.
- Low blood sugar.
“You run the risk of GI issues if your keto gummies use sorbitol, which is known as a laxative,” warns Czerwony. “You should be cautious if you’re going try it. Slowly introduce keto gummies to see how you do because you don’t want to all sudden just kind of overdo it and have those side effects and not be very happy.”
And while some people with Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and kidney issues may opt to go on the keto diet, Czerwony cautions against adding keto gummies to the mix. “The keto diet - and the addition of a keto supplement like gummies - can potentially lower your blood sugar, leading to hypoglycemic responses,” she says. “And it can dehydrate you as well.”
Considerations Before Trying Keto Gummies
Before you hop on the keto gummy bandwagon, Czerwony suggests looking at your diet first if you’re struggling to stay in ketosis. “What is the reason that your body isn’t staying in ketosis? Are you overdoing it on carbohydrates? Is it because you’re getting bored? Is it because you’re still hungry?”

Consider making the necessary tweaks to your keto diet so you’re getting enough calories or fiber. Doing so can be a healthier option instead of turning to keto gummies. “But if you’re following the keto diet, everything seems to be running fine and you want to see a boost to your weight loss, then I think you could certainly try keto gummies,” says Czerwony.
