Every day, America loses more of its veterans—not to war, but to what follows. The battle within.
According to the National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report, suicide is now the second leading cause of death among military veterans, occurring at a rate 103% higher than in the civilian population. Behind every statistic is a life, a story, a service member who returned home only to face invisible enemies: chronic stress, depression, and PTSD.
That’s why Kenetik is proud to partner with Grey Team, a pioneering nonprofit on a mission to prevent veteran suicide through science, community, and cutting-edge holistic therapy.
Grey Team: Innovating Veteran Care
Founded in 2016 by Cary Reichbach (U.S. Army) and Logan Skees (U.S. Marine Corps), Grey Team was born out of lived experience. Both men understood firsthand the lasting toll of military service on the mind and body—and the gaps in support of conventional care systems.
Their mission is clear: to rebuild the lives of those who have served our country through science-backed, whole-body interventions. To date, Grey Team has supported over 820 active-duty service members and veterans—and they’re just getting started.
A New Kind of Recovery
Grey Team offers something few organizations do: a truly integrative, non-pharmaceutical approach to veteran care. In their current flagship Program, Operation Apollo, veterans receive comprehensive mental health support, access to advanced therapeutic technologies, and—perhaps most critically—a tight-knit, empowering community.
At Grey Team’s state-of-the-art facility in Boca Raton, FL, recovery focuses on cellular restoration, neural regeneration, and emotional resilience. The team offers access to:
- Personalized fitness training to re-establish strength and confidence
- Photobiomodulation (red light) therapy for pain reduction and tissue repair
- Hyperbaric oxygen therapy to boost neuroplasticity and detoxification
- Electromagnetic mood therapy as a drug-free method to combat anxiety and depression
- Mindfulness, meditation, and vagus nerve stimulation to regulate the nervous system and build mental resilience
- Infrared detoxification to eliminate toxins accumulated in deployment zones
Guided by a renowned medical advisory board, every protocol is rooted in the latest research in neuroscience and cellular medicine.
Where Kenetik Fits In: Brain Fuel with a Purpose
Grey Team has now added a powerful new tool to its healing arsenal: Kenetik.
Our patented drink delivers bioidentical ketones—a clean, efficient fuel for the brain. Free of caffeine and sugar, Kenetik provides brain-forward energy that supports mental clarity, metabolic balance, and long-term cognitive support.
Mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, and brain fog are increasingly linked to disrupted brain energy metabolism, neurotransmitter imbalances, and chronic neuroinflammation. Kenetik targets these root causes by delivering β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), the body’s preferred ketone, which has been shown to:

Restore impaired brain energy metabolism, providing fuel when glucose uptake falters — especially critical in traumatic brain injury and mood disorders
📚 Palmer, 2022; Youm et al., 2015; Kim et al., 2018 -
Calm an overstimulated brain by increasing GABA (the brain’s calming neurotransmitter) and decreasing glutamate (the excitatory neurotransmitter tied to anxiety and neurotoxicity)
📚 Yudkoff et al., 2001; Bough et al., 2006; Juge et al., 2010 -
Reduce neuroinflammation and oxidative stress by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome and enhancing antioxidant defenses—factors closely linked to depression, PTSD, and cognitive decline.
📚 Youm et al., 2015; Shimazu et al., 2013 -
Support the repair of damaged brain cells by activating BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor)—a key protein that acts like Miracle-Gro for your neurons.
📚 Marosi et al., 2016; Newman et al., 2017
At Grey Team, Kenetik is now integrated into traumatic brain injury (TBI) recovery protocols, alongside advanced light therapies and hyperbaric oxygen treatments. Together, these interventions are designed to:
- Restore metabolic balance in the brain’s energy pathways
- Improve clarity, memory, mood, and emotional regulation
- Lower systemic inflammation and oxidative stress
- Stimulate cellular regeneration and neuroplasticity
This isn’t just theoretical. Veterans using Kenetik in conjunction with Grey Team’s protocols are already experiencing clearer thinking, reduced cognitive fatigue, and steadier emotional footing.
A Shared Mission: Brain-First Health for Our Nation’s Heroes
We’re honored to stand with Grey Team in their fight to redefine how we support our military heroes—not as damaged, but as deserving of the best care science and compassion can offer.
Mental health support is not a luxury. For those who’ve served, it’s a lifeline.
As Kenetik and Grey Team deepen this partnership, our pledge remains clear: to elevate brain performance, promote metabolic wellness, and give back to those who have given everything.
Because at the end of the day, better brain fuel means a better future—for all of us.
