Chronic migraine is a debilitating, poorly understood and poorly managed illness due to limited clinical options. Dr. Kyle Bills is a neuroscientist and clinician specializing in migraine who has been involved in the characterisation of unique phenotypes related to glucose dysregulation that may help guide more effective, personalised treatments. The discussion includes his remarkable clinical research utilizing continuous blood glucose monitoring (CGM) and a ketogenic diet.
