- Only 8% of Americans are metabolically flexible. In the face of this growing health crisis, more and more people are utilizing intermittent fasting as a strategy that provides substantial health benefits. As a result, it is becoming increasingly more popular within conventional medicine. Fasting is a form of hormesis, beneficial stress, that provides multiple health benefits when used in the right amount and at the right time-and needs to be used judiciously in consideration of life stage and gender. Nutritional choices are a critically important component to success with fasting. Focusing on the right combination of macronutrients and removing inflammatory foods yields the best benefits.

Thank you Cynthia and PÅ for sharing so freely. This class covered the basics in an efficient and clear manner. You offered easy-to-approach recommendations for balancing blood sugar and hormones. Good reminders as we enter the holiday season. Cheers!
So glad you found this discussion helpful!

Thank you so much for this! 🌼
Though I've listened to other interviews with Cynthia and read her book, I've found this particularly helpful as it's so well laid out.
It is clearly emphasized that fasting is highly individual. But I'm just wondering, would it be possible to give a rough guideline for those 'thin, leaner women' (who might benefit of only fasting occasionally) on how often+long to fast?
I think I may be one of these women and to fast is nearly easier for me than not to fast. I just love fasting for its proclaimed benefits as well as its practical simplicity. Though having an already busy life (being late thirties, having young children), I think it may contribute to moments of nervousness I experience throughout the day.
Im concerned about the recommendation of 1g protein per pound of bodyweight. The science I have read suggests high protein diets may damage the kidneys and worsen kidney damage in those already diagnosed with CKD. What scientific research do you have to support this recommendation of such high levels of protein being safe?
Wonderful presentation. I am curious how would one get enough protein if intermittent fasting? Based off of my macro requirements, I need a minimum of 100 grams per day which would be approx 30 grams per meal which seems challenging? I can see how someone with food sensitivities (eggs, soy) could struggle to meet this need. Any thoughts?
Larger portions; I teach my patients and clients to slowly increase portions of protein to 40-60gm/meal
