The ketogenic diet is a tool, a powerful tool that can be great for neuroinflammation, insulin resistance and weight loss. While it can work great for some women it can create hormone issues for others. In this episode I cover who keto is ideal for, how to do it right, common pitfalls and the five biggest considerations for women when it comes to this nutrition strategy including estrogen, cortisol, thyroid and even mindset.

Bloating is a symptom that for many women is hard to discern the cause: is it water retention? Digestive? Or new belly fat from shifting hormones? I ask about bloating on literally every call I have women women and they often don’t totally know how to answer it so I wanted to dedicate some time to this super common symptom to help you break it down in terms of where it’s coming from and various suggestions to deal with it depending on the root cause.

Did you know that 95% of women taking a prenatal are still nutrient deficient? The founders of Needed saw this as a big problem and I couldn’t agree more! But Needed quickly became a bigger solution to a bigger problem by providing more options for moms and moms to be. Women need so much support during the time from thinking about getting pregnant all the way to having little ones and so often they are left with options that don’t address their needs (prenatals that have nutrients in the wrong forms or that they can’t take due to nausea) or they are left with low energy, anxiety or even colds/flus while they are pregnant or nursing because there aren’t natural products that are considered safe during these times. Needed solved all of these problems as well as created a community of no-guilt, education and support for new moms and moms to be.

Dr Brooke Show #397 Benefits of Exogenous Ketone Supplements for Women Even If Not On A Keto Diet with Dr. Latt Mansor

For more info on how I can help you visit my site BetterByDrBrooke.com.

In this fascinating episode with Dr. Latt Mansor joins me to discuss of one of my favorite new products: KetoneIQ. I've generally only considered taking exogenous ketones to support a ketogenic diet for those days when ketones and thus energy was low. However, what we now know is that exogenous ketones are very powerful and have utlilty beyond supplementing a keto diet. Ketones like those found in KetoneIQ can be used for better mental clarity and focus, more energy and better workout stamina and recovery - and all of those benefits can be harnessed without being on a keto diet.
