Founded in 2018, VitaNav is a life sciences company developing energy and neurohealth compounds, centered on D-beta hydroxybutyrate (D-BHB) made through a proprietary carbon-negative bio-fermentation process using renewable plant sugars. Its first D-BHB patent was granted in 2021, and the company launched Kenetik as a direct-to-consumer ketone energy product later that year while continuing related medical and research studies.
