The Fasting Reset: How Taking Breaks from Eating Can Reboot Your Health with Dr. Mindy Pelz.

Have you ever wondered if there's a simple, effective way to boost your well-being, increase energy levels, and promote sustainable weight loss? The answer may lie in the age-old practice of fasting.
In my Fitness Friday episode, I dive deep into the science behind fasting and explore how different fasting durations can provide a wide array of health benefits. Expert Dr. Mindy Pelz shares a fascinating insight: fasting for just 17 hours can trigger a process called autophagy, where your cells start to clean out toxins and repair themselves.
From busting common fasting myths to providing practical strategies for incorporating fasting into your lifestyle, this podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in optimizing their health.
Dr. Mindy Pelz is the Founder of Reset Academy, Best Selling Author, and Fasting Enthusiast.

Trust Dr Mindy.. she’s telling the truth.. I was where you are. It is mind blowing how the hunger literally just doesn’t exist in me anymore. I was a massive over eater and I can’t actually believe how much I used to eat. We do not need to eat constantly. It’s liberating to not have to be tied to food anymore. Joint pain is gone, my sleep & mental clarity has improved. Intermittent Fasting is like a miracle

I started I.F. at 60 with too many health problems to list here, but with diabetes and fatty liver at the top of the list. Fast forward 14 months down 50 lbs and a 88% reduction in b.p. meds , 75% reduction in metformin and may possibly stop both in the future. This will be how I eat for the rest of my life.
