SHE IS Labs is absolutely thrilled π to have this groundbreaking study published, as it brings a fresh perspective to the understanding of how diet impacts female physiology, specifically in relation to menstrual cycles π. The study is particularly exciting because it highlights the unique effects of a well-formulated ketogenic diet π₯π₯© on menstrual patterns in pre-menopausal women, an area that has been underexplored in nutritional science.
The findings reveal that over one-third of the women on the ketogenic diet, whether supplemented with ketone salts or not, experienced noticeable changes π in their menstrual cycles, including increased frequency and intensity π₯, and in some cases, a return of menstruation π©Έ after a prolonged absence. These results were not observed in women following a low-fat diet π½, despite similar improvements in weight loss, insulin sensitivity, and body composition across both groups.
For SHE IS Labs, this study reinforces their mission to uncover the intricate connections between nutrition and womenβs health πͺπ©βπ¬. The lab is excited π€© to further explore these novel findings and continue advancing research that has the potential to provide real-world benefits π for women dealing with reproductive health issues, such as irregular periods or hormonal imbalances. This publication is a huge milestone π, and the lab is energized β‘ by the prospect of how this research could influence future dietary recommendations for women.
