Oh ok, cool.
What happens then if you train your brain to run mostly on ketones instead of mostly on carbs?
Then the brains requirement for glucose reduces to about 25g a day - all of which can be produced by gluconeogenesis from protein and fat, with the rest of it's energy coming from ketones. Ketosis is basically a glucose sparing strategy.
