What Are Ketones? Helpful Or Harmful For Menopause?

Courtney Van Bussum

Have you heard of ketones, but not really sure what it means? Do we make them ourselves or do we take them as a supplement? And wonder if this is just another wellness trend?

We cover:

  • Why your brain energy drops in perimenopause even before your period stops, and what estrogen has to do with it

  • What ketones actually are and why they’re so much more than just a fasting byproduct

  • How to get the benefits of ketosis without going low carb or skipping meals

  • What to look for on a ketone supplement label so you’re not wasting money on something that barely works

  • The surprising ways ketones may help with brain fog, joint pain, migraines, and workout recovery
