Team TotalEnergies team manager Jean-René Bernaudeau has called on the UCI to ban ketones and so end the debate about their risks and benefits. Bernaudeau believes a clear stance on the use of ketones can boost professional cycling’s credibility.
Ketones first emerged over a decade ago with Great Britain allegedly boosting its medal haul, including in cycling, at the 2012 London Olympics thanks to the experimental use of the diet supplement.
