Ketones are a superfood? That doesn't make sense to me as superfood isn't a real term.
Here's an article stating that improvement in BP, lipid decrease, and increased insulin sensitivity occurs in fasting. Not so sure about the rest of the vague claims made in the article.

- grwthckrmstr 9y agoInstead of picking out one food or another, I'd just like to generally highlight that the human body can use two sources of energy, carbs - glucose, or fats - ketones. For ketosis to occur, you need to be starved of carbs and loaded with good fats. In effect, your body does turn into a fat burning machine since you literally use fat to fuel your activities and life. The article stating improvements in various aspects of health seem to align with other studies of positive effects on our bodies upon adapting ketosis as a primary source of energy.
