Yeah, it's definitely getting worse. So far I'm maintaining my sanity. Maybe it's because I'm on a keto diet...

And you wouldn't want to; They're pretty much all scams.

The theory goes that they contain exogenous ketones (specifically beta-hydroxybutyrate, or BHB), which will put you into temporary ketosis without having to deprive yourself of carbohydrates as you'd have to do if you were on a keto diet. Even with legitimate exogenous ketones, the effect only lasts a number of hours, and the pills are not cheap. So you end up spending a lot of money for this no-pain approach. There are a few legitimate reasons why you might need exogenous ketones, but for most people, it's *much* cheaper just to go on the keto diet.

Legitimate sellers of exogenous ketones (keto gummies being one form) are not going to be spamming internet forums. So all of these keto gummy posts you see here are just scams trying to separate you from your money. The problem with these scams is that they only put a tiny amount of BHB into these gummies (BHB is expensive). You'd have to take the better part of an entire bottle to get enough BHB is actually go into ketosis. (And remember, this effect only lasts for hours.) And that's ignoring the fact that you have no idea what other inactive ingredients they're putting into the gummies. Would you put something into you mouth made by an unknown company overseas that might shut down tomorrow? I know I wouldn't.
