Aging is associated with impaired signaling between brain regions when measured using resting-state fMRI. This age-related destabilization and desynchronization of brain networks reverses itself when the brain switches from metabolizing glucose to ketones. Here, we probe the mechanistic basis for these effects. First, we confirmed their robustness across measurement modalities using two datasets acquired from resting-state EEG (
