On Today’s Episode:

How many times have you come across influencers and ads on social media promoting intermittent fasting for weight loss, increasing energy and feeling great?

The issue for us as women is that we get half the story, none of the results we’re really after and rarely does it turn into anything we can sustain over time. You’re left feeling frustrated, anxious, still overweight and bloated, and more like your energy has taken a nosedive.

The Fasting MD is on set this time with Lisa, Dr. Amy Shah, and the way she simplifies fasting for women that works in alignment with our cravings, our hormones and monthly cycles is seriously a Game Changer! Dr. Amy Shah is a double-board certified medical doctor specializing in food allergies, hormones and gut health. Her book, I’m So Effing Tired, is more like a groundbreaking blueprint for women to take control of their health like never before.

In this episode Dr. Shah is laying out the foundational things we need to understand as women about our menstrual cycles and how to fast effectively to maximize your energy levels, your quality of sleep, and your hormones. Today is about how we stop fighting our biology, give ourselves grace, and learn to customize your approach to fasting, and why you’ll want to start fasting, like today (or at least tomorrow).

Key Pointers from Dr. Shah:
3-5 days Before Your Cycle: Avoid fasting, exercise, and big decisions – Eat high fiber, low glycemic foods. Focus on self care.
Days 1-3 of your period – hormones are resetting, pay attention to how you are feeling.
Day 14 of Your Monthly Cycle: Testosterone is spiking. Time to go harder on workout and make big confident bold moves during this time.

How to Check-In with Yourself:
How is your energy level?
How is your sleep?
How are your cravings?
How are your hormones?
