Dr. Mindy Pelz joins SheMD for a wide-ranging conversation about fasting, hormones and metabolic health throughout a woman’s life.Mindy explains how her approach to fasting changed after she began seeing women experience symptoms including hair loss, thyroid issues and stalled weight loss when they fasted continuously without taking their menstrual cycle into account.She breaks down how she approaches fasting during different phases of the cycle, why she recommends easing up on fasting before a period, and how those recommendations may change during perimenopause and after menopause.Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi and Mindy also discuss insulin resistance, PCOS, metabolic health, ketones, protein, carbohydrates and the relationship between blood sugar and hormonal symptoms.Mindy explains what she means by “metabolic switching,” how she structures an eating window, why she discourages constant snacking and what she likes women to eat when breaking a fast.Plus, she shares why she sees menopause not as a decline but as an opportunity for women to rethink their health, their brains and the next chapter of their lives.SponsorsProlon: Featured in an advertisement discussing its five-day program, which is described as supporting fat-focused weight loss while protecting lean muscle.
