Intermittent fasting has a number of health benefits, including weight loss, improved insulin sensitivity, increased cellular repair, and reduced inflammation.  However, it should be done a little differently for men and women.  Today we talk with Dr. Fiona Lovely about how to do intermittent fasting to work with your hormones instead of against them. 

We dive into:

  • Benefits of intermittent fasting
  • How to shift your fasting window to meet your needs
  • The role of adrenal fatigue in fasting
  • How to use hormonal fluctuations to benefit fasting
  • How to fast in different parts of your menstrual cycle
  • How fasting differs for women if you don’t have a cycle
