Memorable Quotes: "Fasting is actually one of the most powerful ways that we can heal our bodies, and our body knows that, but our brain doesn't know that. We're trained to think that we should eat all the time and eating is what heals us. Eating is what nourishes us. But honestly, I don't think a lot of women realize it actually requires energy to eat and digest and break down food." – Dr. Tabatha Barber "Once you hit menopause, it goes downhill a lot quicker. You know, like you said, the aging process, especially if you're not on hormone replacement therapy, the disease processes start to set in. But fasting is something that really you can utilize to slow those processes down and even reverse diabetes, reverse autoimmune conditions, because you're healing your gut, you're healing your entire body." – Dr. Tabatha Barber Links Mentioned: FREE E-book "A Woman's Guide to Kick-Ass Sleep": https://bit.ly/4cblYcT Connect with Dr. Tabatha Barber: Website: https://drtabatha.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegutsygynecologist/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTabatha TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thegutsygynecologist YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheGutsyGynecologist Connect with Betty Murray: Living Well Dallas Website: https://www.livingwelldallas.com/ Hormone Reset Website: https://hormonereset.net/ Betty Murray Website: https://www.bettymurray.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BettyAMurrayCN/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bettymurray_phd/
