I am already seeing a difference …. Years ago I was 150 by walking 2 miles to school and back and eating so so … as soon as I stopped walking and drove I the burbs I started to pack in pounds … my body had a set point and it was confused at my sudden drop in 2 miles a day I started following Dr Pelz and she just made soooo much sense out of it all …. This is what I do ( I will say giving up pasta as an Italian is hard !!) I mix up my fasting sometimes 8:16 sometimes 4: 20 I only eat in that designated window I only eat Whole Foods and 150 grams of protein since my goal is 150 lbs I drink water black coffee Green tea I eat 2 sometimes 3 meals a day in that window I don’t count calories I do eat a small avacado a day … I walk but not miles and miles I don’t do it to lose necessarily but for heart health I lift weights but free weights squats no gym just you tube 2 3 days a week I lost 20 lbs

just turned 60...finally age and many years of " modern living" is catching up with me...she arrived in my life like a saving grace. Thank you! It should be lovingly mandatory reading to all.

The longest I used go without eating was when I was asleep. Now I never eat breakfast, sometimes no lunch.on the days I skip lunch the ketone strips are purple. It seems to make a real difference.

I appreciate this distillation of knowledge, I feel frustrated that I can't feel my body cycles, I have ignored my body and its cycles all of my life, dieted, if it worked I would be a supermodel, I am so upset and angry at doctors who even today dismiss me. I have been forced to 'know' MORE than my doctors about nutrition!. Taking a deep calming breath, thank you all

Amazing information!!!! Thank you so much for this.

Every form of fasting will require a regular bowel cleansing: So, take at least every second day early in the morning on an empty stomach 1 tablespoon (15 ml) castor oil in order to excrete not only the waste in your intestines but further to eliminate all the toxins deposed in your body (methylmercury!) via the liver too.

This was great. You are a wonderful instructor 😊

@@user-ru1jt3ve8u I don't know what you've tried already that didn't work for you, but if you haven't already I'd suggest reading/listening to Professor Tim Noakes and following his dietary advice. He basically suggests increasing your (natural/healthy) fat intake and drastically decreasing your carbohydrate intake. After several years of frustrating post-menopausal weight creep, that is what worked for me. Without feeling hungry or deprived, I lost the annoying belly fat I'd put on and have more energy. I've used that energy to get back into weight lifting (I just use dumbbells at home) and the resistance training has restored the muscle I'd lost from sarcopenia. I actually feel (and look) better than I did before menopause. When I first tried intermittent fasting a few years ago, it didn't work for me. I felt like I was getting weaker and compromising muscle each time I fasted for more than 12-14 hours. Since increasing my fat and meat consumption, I am having no problem with intermittent fasting. I did my first 24 hour fast this week and it was easier than I'd anticipated. I'm at a healthy BMI so am not looking to lose fat at this point, just to stay healthy and keep my immune system (and muscles) strong as I age. Hope this helps 🙏

Women and men are biologically different. Am referring to how we are wired due to our natural hormones which is what drives us to shine in areas we are naturally meant to. This podcast is so full of knowledge on how to examine your own body and be in tune to our needs. This is WHY many cultures women are catered to differently. Now in the Western society in the name of "equality" women actually don't strive. I remember my great grandmother and grandmother would give a break to the young female grand kids a break from house chores during their period. I specifically remember my grandmother would allow some of her menstruating grand daughters to bunk in her room. She would make sure we had hearing pads, offer foods that would help us and just allow us to relax and chill. We had no chores other than cleaning up after yourself. All my male cousins knew why and to leave us alone, most importantly they were raised in a manner to ck in with the elders if they needed anything. Many cultures have a period room or even a outside area where a woman is allowed to distress and away from the frenzy of a full house of daily stressors. It made sense why now in the light of this podcast information.

There is something about the parts of the discussion that talk about men using this information to "unlock" the right or more optimal response in women around them that makes me bristle. Especially the father/daughter scenario. It is one thing to educate an individual about their biology to empower them to make more helpful choices or to educate people about the fact that our biological make ups are complex and vary based on the many layers of our identities, so we can be more understanding about how people's responses may be affected. It is entirely something else to tell men to vary their approach to women based on a goal and their menstrual cycle. It feels manipulative and like a shortcut around autonomy and agency. This information feels deeply private and personal. We all, after all, have to show for the world whether we are at our best or not, regardless of the cause. We are expected to be able to resolve conflict or perform at work, even during times that we are exposed to stressors, whether that has to do with things like financial difficulties, familial challenges, or shedding your uterine lining.

Dr. Mindy claims that day one through 10 is the best time to work out really hard or do an extended fast. But day one through 10 is when you’re on your period. I’m actually more hungry during that time and more lazy. I don’t wanna work out as hard.

Also take ACV at night an hour before going to bed so it can boost your fat burning while sleeping. Make sure to drink it into your water about two cups with lemon.

really wamna know if everthing changes if I am on the pill😂

What day of the month does ovulation happen? She said that’s a good time to resolve a conflict or ask for a raise.

I try not to get disappointed about my fasting but can’t, so I hear all about cortisol and how high cortisol is bad, how about for those of us that have very low cortisol, not due to a disease but due to getting steroids via injection, my last number was 1.4. Or how about fasting for those of us that work 12.5 hour nights shifts. I have struggled for the last 6 years with weight gain, anxiety, stress. I am pretty sure that I am in the perimenopause time in my life, after all I am now 49. Most of my periods are still quite normal, (which sucks because I have horrible PMS/ cramps from hell. Like the ones where I wish I could trade souls with my hubby at that time of the month😂. After listening to different people on utube I finally decided, why not. What do I have to lose. So I started fasting a few weeks ago, it’s actually quite easy for me for most of the time. I have done at least 17 hour fasts and even now I am on my 2nd longer fast(like almost 40 hours) Not done on purpose, just my shifts at different hospitals made it that way. Since my shifts are 12.5 hours and I now no longer eat during work time why is it that my blood glucose still won’t go below 90(not diabetic-was just tested at doc office) And like right now checking my ketones. It said 0.3😮 Like how duh heck does that happen. I drink tea, water and coffee. (No sugar or cream ) I do use my inhalers, and anxiety meds. This is so frustrating, has anyone else go through the same situation. Can medications mess with our fasting.

I have done multiple fasts over 3 months bs never drops below 110 no one answers why it's not going down ..

The app doesn’t work, it won’t let me adjust the dates.

I’m curious, how does this translate to children?

Hi, was always told if you don't eat you get gas. And that has happened to me. Belching and stomach gurgling . What is that?

does not happen to me so maybe just getting use to this way

My grandson knew exactly where his mother and sister were in their cycles for his own mental "safety".😅

I bet those extra aminos needed in second half of cycle is to grow a baby and doing more to keep that baby with increased progesterone also.

Why does it always go back what our primary ancestors did? They didn't live past 30 years old. What does that tell you
