Mindy for a few years, THANK YOU for writing this awesome book so we can have all the info in one place! But there is a lot of fear and a lot of vulnerability, you know, of all the things I put out into the world, writing a book is a really intimate experience. A grain of wisdom that stood out for me was to over the period of a month vary your nourishment by as many as 200 items.

Not to mention 1/3 of the book is pointless recipes (why ruin a perfectly good avocado by scooping out the entrails, wrapping it in bacon and frying it? And all the principles that I teach in the book I was walking through with her, and she wrote the foreword, she you can hear it from her words, what it was like to take the information in. Dr Mindy is an advocate for people's health and has a plethora of geeky science, hacks, tips and tricks to help people, especially women to be empowered with their health and hormones. Discover the secrets to boosting your energy levels, burning fat, and balancing hormones with "Fast Like a Girl: A Woman's Guide to Using the Healing Power of Fasting.The book offers a thorough and enlightening examination of fasting, encompassing a range of topics including its effects on hormonal well-being, athletic prowess, and weight control. Mindy wrote this book because “once a woman knows how to build a fasting lifestyle around her cycle, she becomes unstoppable. During my read I tried out the 16:8 which I found to be very reasonable, and I did drop some weight, so that was cool.

Similar to the first power phase, focus on nurturing the body through nutrient dense whole foods and exercise.This includes people who have gone through menopause, or those who might not get their period due to stress or birth control. I’m fascinated with the concept of fasting and the healing aspects as well as the muscle building properties of the food we eat and when we eat them as we age. It is so pathetic I want to drag each of you to Africa to witness real problems, or perhaps drag you to Saudi Arabia to witness real patriarchy.
