WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER!
Includes a 30-Day fasting reset that uses the power of your cycle--even
if you no longer have one!
A go-to fasting manual created specifically to address women's needs
based on their hormones and menstrual cycle by Dr. Mindy Pelz, a
well-known expert on women and fasting, whose fast-growing YouTube
channel has become the destination for women who want to learn about
fasting.
Are you among the many women who feel unheard and unseen by their
doctors and health professionals? Have you become exhausted by the
promise of quick-fix diets that only leave you disappointed? Well in
Fast Like a Girl, Dr. Mindy helps you to take back control of your
health by using the quickest path back to better health--fasting.
While most fasting advice has been a one-size-fits-all approach that
leaves women with more questions than answers, in this book Dr. Mindy
shares the proven strategies, specific protocols to use if you are
trying to overcome a condition, fasting hacks, and tools that she has
used to help hundreds of thousands of women thrive with their fasting
lifestyles.
Dr. Mindy will teach you:
-
the rights steps on how to go from eating all day to intermittent
fasting (13-15 hours)
-
how to safely fast longer if you choose to do so (15-72 hours)
-
how to time fasting according to your menstrual cycle (although if you
don't have a cycle, she has you covered)
-
the best foods to break your fast to achieve better metabolic health
This book also includes more than 50 recipes based on the two food
plans--ketobiotic and hormone feasting--she created to best support
women's hormones. And, it has recipes specifically created to break a
fast such as her Coconut Cacao Chia Pudding.
Inspired by the thousands of women she has worked with who have
reclaimed their health with fasting, Dr. Mindy wrote this book because,
"once a woman knows how to build a fasting lifestyle around her cycle,
she becomes unstoppable."
