The Brain Ritual formula

Fuel. Support. Protect.

We combine ketone-based brain fuel with the essential nutrients the brain depends on — the two halves of brain energy, in one precise formulation.

Brain fuel

Human-identical ketone bodies (D-BHB) — an energy source the brain can use directly, alongside glucose.

Nutrient support

Vitamins, minerals, and cofactors that help neurons produce energy, maintain healthy mitochondria, and sustain neurotransmitter function.

Cellular protection

Antioxidants and mitochondrial nutrients that support cells against oxidative stress and long-term cognitive health.

How Brain Ritual® was born

Brain Ritual® began with Dr. Elena Gross, PhD — a neuroscientist and former chronic migraine sufferer whose attacks began in her teens and intensified over time.

After two decades of unremitting, medication-resistant migraine, Elena devoted her life to understanding the condition and improving care. Her studies across Oxford, Basel, Cambridge, and Harvard led her to explore migraine through a metabolic and nutritional lens, alongside its established neurological biology.

That work led to Brain Ritual®: a medical food formulated to support the dietary management of migraine with clinically studied nutrients.

Elena as Scientist

Elena spent a decade studying at Oxford, Basel, Cambridge, and Harvard to better understand migraine and improve clinical care.

Her research at Oxford and Basel helped frame migraine as a nutritional problem as well as a neurological one. That work has received patents, appeared in leading journals, and continues to guide Brain Ritual's approach to dietary migraine management.

Elena as Entrepreneur

After two decades of chronic, medication-resistant migraine, Elena founded KetoSwiss AG to turn research and lived experience into practical support for people with migraine.

As CEO of a Swiss Top 100-recognized biotech startup, she built Brain Ritual from the same mission behind Mastering Migraine: education, resources, and better tools for managing the condition.

The origin & science behind Brain Ritual®.

Brain Ritual began with Dr. Elena Gross’s two decades of chronic migraine and her research into migraine metabolism. Her work turned personal experience into a science-led mission: to help people understand migraine differently, support the brain through nutrition, and support quality of life through an evidence-informed, nutrition-led approach.
