INTEGRATIVE KETOGENIC
RESEARCH & THERAPIES
At IKRT, we implement metabolic therapies, including Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy, a personalised approach to nutrition and lifestyle that can improve both physical and mental health. This approach is aimed at increasing the levels of ketones in your body. Ketones are small molecules produced when your body breaks down fat.
Ketones have been shown to protect the brain and reduce inflammation. Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy is more than just a diet. It is a powerful nutritional intervention. It's a method to improve your metabolic and mitochondrial health, which, in turn, can positively impact both your physical and mental well-being.
What is Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy?
At IKRT, Dr Bellamy supports people with mental health conditions to learn how to use ketogenic metabolic therapy safely and effectively, with professional guidance, education, and community support.
IKRT offers personalised ketogenic metabolic therapy for mental health conditions and general metabolic health.
Structured, supported online programs and private one to one consultations for depression, anxiety, and brain health, because this work is not meant to be done alone.
