About this episode
Dr. Elena Gross is the founder/CEO of KetoSwiss and MigraKet®. She is a neuroscientist and clinical research PhD whose personal battle with debilitating chronic migraines since adolescence fueled her mission to transform migraine management. Her decade of research at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, and Basel universities led to groundbreaking discoveries on migraine's nutritional roots—resulting in 4 patents and publications in Nature Neurology. She pioneered MigraKet®, the world's first medical food for migraines, and created the Mastering Migraine Community to empower patients globally. In this episode, Dr. Gross talks about the brain's massive energy demand and how this, nutrition and other factors, can play a critical role in bringing about migraines.
