#4: Intermittent Fasting Explained: What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why

Let’s talk about intermittent fasting ~ and why this isn’t as black and white as it’s often made out to be.

In this episode, I’m sharing my personal experience with fasting, where it actually helped me, and why I ultimately chose not to continue with it long-term. While intermittent fasting can reconnect you to your hunger cues, it’s often misunderstood ~ especially for women.

We go into:

• why fasting can help you feel real hunger again
• the difference between physical hunger and emotional eating
• how dieting disconnects you from your body (and how to rebuild that trust)
• why most fasting advice is based on male physiology ~ and why that matters
• what actually happens in your body when you skip meals
• why food quality matters more than meal timing
• and how to build a way of eating that works sustainibly in your life

Key takeaway:

You don’t need to force your body into a ruled schedule. You need to learn how to listen to it and support it.
