Should Women Fast?

What the research says about women and time-restricted feeding. Join me as I discuss my findings from a manuscript that I wrote during my doctorate program on intermittent fasting on women, specifically. We will discuss the results whether implementing intermittent fasting or time restricted feeding into your lifestyle may benefit you in your health journey. In this episode, we will answer: What qualifies as intermittent fasting? What does the evidence say for women who are intermittent fasting/time restrictive feeding? What are the benefits and results of intermittent fasting? Is there an improved quality of life associated with fasting? How long do you have to fast for to get the full benefits? Do you have to calorie restrict while on a fasting diet model to see benefits? What might you want to eat during your non-fasting window? What are some reasons to not implement fasting in your lifestyle?

We are hosting a group starting on April 4th where you can try out fasting in a controlled and safe environment. Feel free to check that out on our website here.
