The Science of Fasting and Your Period

from The Period Recovery Movement Podcast · host Katelyne Weber

Today, I’m breaking down why the intermittent fasting 'hack' is actually a hurdle for most women (especially if you're trying to get your period back). I’m sharing the research on why we aren't 'small men' and why I’m trading the fasting timer for a big bowl of cereal every single night.Link to my coaching program.Studies Referenced:Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4 This is a public episode.
