Update Review on 09/29/2024:
I've told one friend about Brain Ritual (MigraKet), she also suffered daily but hers were hemeplegic. She started taking it in the fall and is almost migraine free as well. It's truly a miracle product! I spoke with a neurologist recently about it and he took down the info to share with his patients.
I understand migraineurs would be hesitant about a new product. We are constantly being told "this might work!" But for me (and my friend!) Brain Ritual (MigraKet)was IT!!
I'd love to be able to save the most money but subscribing, but it's hard for me to get a large amount of money together at one time. It's true that I'm saving $ in the long run by not needing pharmaceuticals but without insurance help, the cost seems high. So right now I order a couple of a months at a time - maybe 6 weeks worth. I've also been able to lower myself to one packet a day and that is saving money and not causing any flare up!
I thank God for you and the brain He gave you. You have given me my life back!

Elena Gross, Brain Ritual (MigraKet)has changed my life! I feel like a new person. I'm wondering if changing my diet to be more ketogenic will help even more? I've always been overweight and haven't even considered working on that over the past 5 years of debilitating daily migraine pain. Now that I am not just functioning, but thriving (!!!) However, I want to work on my weight.

I have averaged 25 migraine days a month for the past 4.5 years. I started Migra-Ket 8 weeks ago and have been completely migraine free for 5 weeks!! I've paid waaaaay more than $98 a month for all my preventatives, abortavies, and ER visits. It's totally worth the $$!! Oh! And I'm off ALL other Pharmaceuticals
Review on 03/14/2024:
I think Brain Ritual (MigraKet)has literally given me my life back. I say "think" just because I'm trying to be realistic. I'd love to share my thoughts and feelings. For the past 4.5 years, I've had daily migraine pain. I've been hospitalized twice and received many different treatments including a ketamine drip, nothing ever touched the pain. Ive tried every (literally) pharmaceutical available - preventatives and abortives. I've also adjusted my diet in several different ways. I've taken supplements. Nothing ever helped. I stopped taking all pharmaceuticals before Brain Ritual (MigraKet)and was feeling pretty hopeless. I started taking Brain Ritual (MigraKet)and the first week there was no change. The second week I had a terrible migraine, one of the worst l've ever had, pain level 10 for 3 days, then 8 for the next week but it was gradually getting better. I've not had a migraine since that big one. It's been 5 weeks since pain level 10. And about 4 weeks of virtually no pain. I've had a few scares: loud ringing ears, neck popping, “thick” head, brain fog, but it hasn't turned into anything. Those would have all been clear warning signs of a migraine spike before. I say "spike" because | was never pain free. I was mostly bed-ridden for 4-5 days a week. The other days l'd try to push through the pain. In the past 4.5 years l've had one 3 week run of being pain-free and three 2 week runs. 5 weeks is amazing! I'm praying l've found my "cure". In fact, this past weekend I went to an amusement park with my husband and our 3 teens. I thought for sure the heat and activity would set things off but decided it was worth the risk, l've missed SO MUCH of my children's lives! I was feeling good, despite walking all over the park in the heat, I tentatively agreed to ride a roller coaster and still felt great,I rode 2 more. On the way home I started to get that thick head feeling, it started to pound, I took Tylenol before bed and woke up feeling great! l've felt like my head has tried to have a migraine this week or maybe it's just me expecting to have one. But it hasn't happened! I am praising the Lord for your invention! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My whole family is beyond grateful.
Review on 3/06/2024:
I can't live without my Brain Ritual (MigraKet)and strongly dislike me the current flavor. worth it for the NO MIGRAINES though!! I haven't had once in almost 8 weeks!!! This is after daily migraine pain for 4.5 years.
Review on 01/03/2024:
I made sure to drink extra water, put on my ice hat for a bit and just rested in the dark and the migraine went away on its own. That NEVER happens so I was pretty excited!
I ordered for my family members who have migraine and this product was a huge success. I have already reordered.
I have not seen great results and Migraket/Brain Ritual has a very high price point to boot. Frustrating to spend so much money on yet another remedy with minimal follow through.
Update Review on 02/03/2025:
While I haven't tried the CGRPs yet and my neurologist wants me to, I have missed in neurology for a long time the search for the actual reasons for migraines, though there were and are strong indicators in ketone research and in people like Elena Gross who have turned this difficult condition around through a different approach. My reason for looking for alternative ways to understand migraines also comes from worries for my kids like you, and I have to say Migraket has majorly improved my migraines, and I have finally a sense of actually addressing the root cause, versus just the symptoms. I find Elena Gross' research and insights almost without par, and the development of her product a game changer for us sufferers.
Review on 01/28/2025:
My first impression of Migraket is quite incredible after about 8 weeks of taking it. As a chronic migraineur for decades who has tried so many treatments over the years and who has struggled to not take more than 10 triptans/ month, I have been down to 2-3 for the past 2 months, and feel much stronger head wise. Will continue to take it and report, but so far this is exceptional, and giving me hope finally! Thank you!!
My daughter's headache was gone in less than 30 min today.
Update Review on 12/30/2024:
It lessens the frequency of my migraines and seems to stave off the really nasty ones. I can only stomach one packet a day though.
Review on 8/9/2024:
I have been able to continue with my life as usual because the migraines I do get are much less severe than before and medication easily stops them. My energy level is also MUCH more even during the day.
Review on 6/26/2024:
Hi all! I am Amanda from Sacramento, CA and I am on week 2 of Brain Ritual (MigraKet). I normally get 2-3 migraines a month but they tend to come in somewhat rapid succession so ! can go a couple of weeks without getting any. So far since starting I have had no migraines and I definitely feel better overall (when I am going through a cluster of them I feel "off" for the several days around them). I have not had any side effects (other than neon pee haha) and the taste does not bother me at all. I just mix it with around 16oz of cold water.
I've never missed a dose, even when I had Covid, I made sure to keep up. I do have to take half doses due to the side effects though. (Apparently the extreme sleepiness is a rare one. I wouldn't be able to drive or work after a full dose.)
Now off all preventive medication and migraine symptoms have been mild enough when I am affected, that I can continue to work or do family activities.
On my fifth day of Brain Ritual (MigraKet), my brain woke up after finishing my morning supplement. It was amazing! I felt the old familiar feeling of an alert brain that I had lost with chronic migraine. The energy waned after a few hours but, about 5 minutes after the afternoon supplement, my brain woke up again! It was not a fluke. I nearly cried with gratefulness, relief, and excitement!
I'm starting week 3 of Brain Ritual (MigraKet). So far, I have more energy, the severity of my daily migraine is a little less, and I have only had one day where I was completely out of commission. Usually I have three or more days of completely disabling migraine within a two week span. I'm cautiously optimistic that this is the reason I've felt a bit better. The literature says it takes about 8 weeks for best results, so fingers crossed for a successful trial! I think if you're not getting enough relief from conventional treatments, this is a viable option, as long as your doctor is aware of you taking it. Always consult with your headache specialist before taking any kind of medical food/vitamin/supplement. There are some meds that could cause a reaction if you're taking them with certain supplements/vitamins/medical foods
I first learned of Dr. Elena Gross through her interview with the Migraine World Summit. I identified with her personal migraine journey and was grateful for her research. But having tried every migraine supplement, diet modification, and lifestyle modification in addition to my prescription medications, I wondered how it would be possible to address metabolic migraine. Then, Brain Ritual (MigraKet) was released and I bought it as soon as I learned about it.

By day 7, I was craving Brain Ritual (MigraKet) instead of coffee and sugar. My ideal timing worked out to be about 7 hours apart: A.M. Brain Ritual (MigraKet) by 8am and P.M. Brain Ritual (MigraKet) at 3pm. I stopped getting a mid-afternoon mental and physical slump.
By day 10, the brain energy and alertness became consistent and didn't plummet between supplements. Instead of trying to get through my day, I was sailing through it!
I am entering my 4th week of Brain Ritual (MigraKet). I have noticed that migraine postdrome is shorter and I actually recover between migraines. Before Brain Ritual (MigraKet), postdrome hangover lingered until the next prodrome. I can't wait to see the results of Brain Ritual (MigraKet) after long term, consistent use.
I don't ever want to go back to a pre-Brain Ritual (MigraKet) brain state. Brain Ritual (MigraKet) earned a permanent place in my migraine management plan. It's worth every penny.
Thank you for creating this life-changing migraine management supplement!
I'm happy to tweak language to improve the delivery (I'm a grant writer, I know how important language is!).
Update Review on 09/17/2024:
Sometimes I get migraines when I'm fasting. Today got pretty bad and was about to take some otc pain meds when I remembered I had one more sample of Brain Ritual (MigraKet) from Elena Gross. From my personal (anecdotal) experience with migraines (pain level around 8-9, triggered by altitude changes, ketones, or dehydration), I've found that after drinking Brain Ritual (MigraKet) with water, the pain would noticeably subside to about a 2 within an hour. Every time, I'd be amazed, almost expecting it not to work, yet it consistently does. I'm sharing this as an honest testimony-I'm not paid, and no one asked me to post this. In fact, l've got a box in my cart right now, ready to actually finally order &. This is truly my genuine review of the product.
Review on 08/16/2024:
The ibuprofen that I didn't have to take for my migraine because of Brain Ritual (MigraKet). From pain scale of 9-2 in less than an hr, totally zero in 2. Amazing product. Thank you Elena Gross for your research.
Update Review on 09/17/2024:
I have been using the product for a little over a month now and have made it to a whole pack. I have had amazing results and was wondering if I should still increase to the two packs a day since I'm having such good response.
Review on 08/31/2024:
This product has changed my migraine treatment for the better. After a month of being on the product I have not had a migraine in over two weeks. As I slowly eased myself up to the one pack a day I had only two migraines in the first two weeks. Before Brain Ritual (MigraKet) I was having anywhere from 10-15 a month. Now if I do get a headache it’s usually a small one that is resolved by extra hydration or an OTC medication like ibuprofen. Looking forward to my continued improvement over the next few months as I continue to take Brain Ritual (MigraKet). Years of suffering with no answers and now I got days of my life back!
Update Review on 08/31/2024:
Hi! I'm on my 3rd box, usually 2 sachet a day. At least 1. So far I'm not on any preventative medication now, any headache I can take an OTC. One trigger is barometric pressure, so I watch that with WeatherX app. I haven't had a full fledged, take me out migraine in about a month. Before I was getting 10-15 a month. I have 2 more boxes after this, thank you to Elena Gross for this supplement. I was taking a different migraine supplement, but this has a lot more in the sachets.
Review on 08/01/2024:
Im grateful to you for developing something for yourself and others. I'm not migraine free, and I'm still taking my preventative. But I believe it's all helping. In the last month, I've only had to take my acute meds once. I have chronic migraine (about 12-15 a month) Otherwise, I can get rid of one with an over the counter medicine. My preventative is $1000/mo, not covered by insurance for part of the year. I haven't had an issues or side effects from Brain Ritual (MigraKet). It tastes fine, I just drink it quickly with my other supplements.
Update Review on 08/31/2024:
Before Brain Ritual (MigraKet), was having a severe migraine with aura nearly daily. Having my first really severe one this weekend, but it's the first time I've had a really bad one in 2 months!! Sounds strange to say, but I am grateful to be so out of practice tolerating this misery. Such remarkable improvement! I promise to do a video review
Review on 8/16/2024:
Just thought l'd share something positive because of Brain Ritual (MigraKet)... I've just earned my orange belt in Taekwondo! Having my nearly daily severe migraines with aura reduced so significantly has made it possible for me to try martial arts with my husband and son. This would not have been possible with my chronic migraines as bad as they were. Thank you so much for this product!
Review on 07/17/2024:
I've been using it for almost a month now and I've actually seen a huge reduction in my migraine days and severity. Because l've been extra sensitive to gastrointestinal effects, l've only been taking one packet a day, but it's working. Just came from a neurology appointment, and she confirmed that l've tried everything there is to try from a prescription standpoint. Anyway, I know it won't work for everyone, but as someone who feels like they've tried just about everything, I'm glad I took a chance on it. I first learned about this product through Dr. Gross in the Migraine World Summit, which is definitely a legitimate platform for the newest research and breakthroughs in migraine management. I always wonder if comments on FB ads are real. I promise I'm a real person! My migraines are rated as a severe disability on the MIDAS scoring system. At the very least, it's worth a try. I've spent much more on prescriptions, treatments, and infusions that have done nothing.
Review on 02/04/2024:
I am so happy that we just went to the Caribbean, and I experienced nearly a week being migraine free. I did have one as we were leaving the airport to head home, but that was when Hurricane Debbie was starting up. While on the island, there were multiple thunderstorms that rolled through, and it would rain for a little bit nearly every day. Back home, that would automatically equal a migraine every time, but I got to enjoy my 50th birthday vacation! I'm still trying to navigate the gastrointestinal distress, But I think my body is starting to get better used to the ketone bodies. Customer care has been fantastic in helping me with that and answering all of my questions. I've even convinced another fellow severe chronic daily migraineur to consider giving it a try. I'm still getting some headaches outside of our vacation, but I am definitely experiencing a major reduction in both number of attacks and severity. I've gotten aura a few times, and then nothing happens. That is completely unheard of for me!
If this is relevant, I'm diagnosed with BPD, bipolar 2, ADHD, C-PTSD and chronic migraines. My doctors and I also suspect autism and EDS.
I mention this because moodwise, it was actually a huge boost to my mood. It bordered on euphoric, if not outright triggering me into hypomania. However, when I began Brain Ritual (Migraket), I was only on Vyvanse (taken at least an hour apart from the Brain Ritual (Migraket)) and no mood stabilizer. This has since been rectified now that I'm on Latuda, and this side effect had become much less pronounced over time as my body adjusted.
This has also tremendously helped my potential EDS symptoms. That has been a blessing and a curse as I haven't been able to show my doctors my symptoms at their worst, but I'm on a three year waiting list to get tested regardless so this has been amazing for me to have some help. It has undeniably been helpful for temperature/ 'energy' regulation. I still have migraine-like pain, but because my body isn't struggling as bad with blood pressure/ heart rate regulation, it has helped me narrow down where my other pain is coming from. This has been significantly more helpful than my years of seeing a neurologist.
Side effects have mostly been aggressive diarrhea. Since this has ketones, I read into keto and learned it's common to have "dino poops" on keto. It also gave me tummy flutters at first, nausea, terrible gas and bloating for weeks. I minimized this by periodically taking small shots of apple cider vinegar (mixed in with something else, of course) around meal times and taking small amounts of flax seeds. I feel as though I wasn't producing enough acid and my body struggled to digest food and eliminate waste, so doing the above helped the worst of it. I am mostly back to passing solids, though occasional ACV and flax seeds have helped a lot.
Fun side note, I also lost my sweet tooth after a couple weeks. My family rejoiced at the new surplus of brownies and Little Debbies that randomly survived longer than two days. My skin has also been much happier.
The flavor was fine. I made it a habit to mix it with Gatorade and Jumex and turn it into a tasty beverage. My biggest issue was the packaging--specifically the tearing. If there was a way to make the tear at an angle, that would help a lot. The tear is just at the cusp of where the package contents are so I either didn't make it and I would have to rip it again, or I would rip it horribly down one side and make it snow orange. My formerly-white bedsheets have had unfortunate orange splotches a time or two.
I could also accept it in Pixy Stix format, as I had to do that in a couple emergency situations. It wasn't too bad, but had to hydrate immediately after. Gummies would also be good, if there's a way to not destroy the nutrients in the process.
Hopefully any of this is helpful as I tend to ramble. I could certainly go on for much longer as this has been a very enlightening process.
Update Review on 08/09/2024:
I usually have horrible migraines right before my period and this time my period came and I had
no idea bc I didn't have my typical migraine warning sign lol! I love Brain Ritual (MigraKet)!!
Review on 06/15/2024:
I don't mind supporting and paying full price, it's definitely worth every penny! I just hope Brain Ritual (MigraKet) product will be around forever so l never have to go a day without! I've been promoting Brain Ritual (MigraKet) on a large migraine FB group
Review on 05/22/2024:
The FB group I'm in is called Move Against Migraine. My comment has gained a lot of attention in that group regarding Brain Ritual (MigraKet). I've been using one sachet a day and have been migraine-free for the just time in a month! I also feel like my brain is healthier if that makes sense. It's been a miracle product for me so far and I hope for its continued success!
I am extremely grateful for Dr. Elena and her incredible new product, Brain Ritual (MigraKet). I first discovered Dr. Elena earlier this year when I watched her interview during the Migraine World Summit. I related so much to her interview as a chronic migraine sufferer, that I did an internet search for Dr. Elena to learn more about the prevention strategies she mentioned in her interview, specifically the bio-identical ketone bodies as an alternative energy source for the brain. When I learned that Dr. Elena would soon be releasing a new product, which included ketone bodies to address the root cause of migraine and nourish the brain, I immediately pre-ordered the product. As a mom of three active boys, most days I simply felt as if I was in survival mode battling near-constant migraine or migraine hangovers. Desperate for relief over the years, I felt as if I had tried "everything" from, Botox, to triptans, to elimination diets, supplements, and physical therapy. However, nothing seemed to prevent my chronic migraine. After taking Brain Ritual (MigraKet) consistently for several weeks now I can confidently say that I have found something that works! In addition to reducing my number of migraine days, I now no longer have to take the half-dozen supplements that I used to each morning because vitamins such as magnesium, riboflavin, CoQ10 and vitamin C are in Brain Ritual (MigraKet). If you suffer from migraine I encourage you to try Brain Ritual (MigraKet) as I am confident this product has the potential to help millions of migraine sufferers.
Greetings! I typically don't review products, but I'm glad to make an exception with this one. I have chronic migraine that has gotten exponentially worse over the past four years. I was an active duty officer in the US Public Health Service Corps. I worked in health policy and Congressional affairs— a career that I absolutely loved until the migraines made it impossible for me to do my job at a level I was proud of. I recently retired from active duty, because the frequency, intensity, and unpredictable nature of the migraines made it impossible for me to deploy. I have been on Botox, received occipital nerve blocks, SSRIs, SSNRis, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, gabapentin, CGRPs, triptans... over the counter meds... you name it. Nothing made an appreciable difference until Brain Ritual (MigraKet). I don't know if i'll ever be migraine free (I hope so!) but after using the product for three months I have had an appreciable decrease in the frequency and intensity of my migraine attacks. I have gained back so much quality of life. Thank you!
Medicine costs money, too. So do days off work.
I'd rather try this and see if it fixes the root. Elena Gross, share a chart of what people generally pay to see a specialist ($50 copay) plus meds ($30/month) and supplements ($150/mo) plus time off work (depends on your job) and mental load of having migraines and missing events (priceless).
Albeit the digestive issues I can confirm it's well worth the price if your migranes are metabolic. I went down from migraines every day to only a couple times a week and it's well worth it for me
I'm happy to tweak language to improve the delivery (I'm a grant writer, I know how important language is!).
Thank you for creating this life-changing migraine management supplement!
