For all of you asking about menopausal woman 17:50 Who should not fast (eating disorders, pregnant and nursing women) 21:36 After the age of 40 do 5 things 36:10 Best ways to get hormone testing 45:15
I would like more info on women after menopause. I am a healthy 70 year old woman who exercises - walking the hills, yoga and weights. Periods ceased at 60. Like Dr Hyman I am blessed with a body on the thinner side. I also do not want to loose muscle, which are thin to begin with… Thanks for all the valuable info. 🤗
I went into full menopause at 40 from fasting. Finished at 47 and couldn't be happier with the results. The other side of menopause is pretty great, I'm super healthy, OMAD 5 days a week and 1 48 hour fast once a month or so. I'm 50 and have never felt better 😊 Thanks for all of this great info and helping women navigate fasting as it's so different than it is for men!. I fasted through menopause and no hormone replacement as my mom got breast cancer from hers. With a healthy diet, supplements and fasting, I only really had issues with night sweats.
My best health was in my mind 50s because of better eating habits and with eliminating bad processed foods. This was well before I discovered healthy Keto. I love healthy keto veg's protein and healthy fats. ACV with lemon in my water. Keto on girls. Greens are our friend.
What do you mean by full menopause at 40 and finishing at 47? (I'm under the understanding that after 1 full year of no cycles you enter menopause.) Did you have 7 years of a perimenopause?
I hadn't had a period for 9 months at 39 so I was tested as they thought I may have had cancer. My doctor said I was fully in menopause as I hit my 40th birthday. I had 7 years of symptoms then they all just went away.
I believe my late mom’s heart disease was exacerbated by HRT so I had no intention on going on hormones when I reached that age. Turned out the medical establishment did a 180 by the time I was at that age. Ironically, I had no discernible menopausal symptoms. My period just started lessening until it was no more…I think by the time I was 50. I’m 64 now. After I was in menopause I felt so good that I stopped going to the gynecologist for about 6 years. Then I thought maybe I should go just get Pap smear etc and I told the Dr sorry but I was feeling so good I didn’t think to come. She laughed and said “you’re lucky”! Everything was fine. 😂
I like to do a 72 hour fast 2 times a year. I wait until April instead of January. Too hard to come off a holiday binge to stop eating all of a sudden. Then again in November pre holiday. I am 62 years old. It’s definitely a hard thing to do. I have had great success. I plan to just relax and enjoy my day with as little stress as possible. I am lucky enough to have that option.
I only wish I had found you earlier, when I was first having symptoms of menopause, pre-diabetes, and hypertension. None of my doctors ever told me to try these methods that you mentioned. I’m so greatful to you! Thank you❤
Dr Mindy is right on! We DO need to collaborate with our doctor and work on hormone issues! Doctors dont help anymore they just tell you to take something and see you next year!!
Please address in another video of the topic of women who have had hysterectomies and what type of hormone replacement they should go on, and also women that have had previous breast cancer because it is not even available for us. No one will ever speak to us about it. Thank you. I’m looking forward to your comment about that.
I’m coming into the menopause age. My wonderful Dr I had for many years retired. I went to a nurse practitioner. I read up on menopause a little before my appointment. She literally didn’t know much more than I did about menopause. Her focus seemed to be younger women of child baring age. I was quite disappointed. I never saw her again.
I'm so glad you invited her on!!! Even following the high quality nutrition info on Dr's Farmacy, I had pretty noticeable hormonal acne. Timing my diet & fasts to my menstrual cycle, as recommended in her book, has led to a huge improvement in only 3 months 😊
Hormonal acne and PMDD has led me to Mindy. This information is so invaluable❤ My cycle (bleed) should start tomorrow so I am excited to track and see how this month goes for me compared to the last few months, the most recent being the absolute WORST.
I appreciate you Dr. Hyman, that you are willing to listen and learn new ways to fast and learning about women and how to learn to deal with women's issues.
So happy that she mentioned bowel movements during fasting because I've been experiencing that. On a regular day it's once per day and during fasting it's twice per day. I'm so happy for that❤
Thank You!! This was super helpful and relevant, more than just about fasting but also the bigger picture of “ hormonal literacy”! I LOVE how Dr P described healing in community as initiating a cascade of beneficial hormonal relationships starting with Oxytocin. ❤Will follow Dr Pelz closely from here on. Thank you Dr P and Dr H!
It's great that women's hormones are NOW being considered as they should. However, what about we more senior dames in our 70's and 80's who need other considerations. Anything you can recommend?
wowww, this is what I call a life changing interview. My first time hearing about the necessary changes in diet/lifestyle based on the time of our cycle. Sharing with all my girlies. With much appreciation and gratitude.
The biggest thing for me is that I'm 51 with two young children. We got married late and our kids are 7 years and 10 years old. It's hard for me to slow down because I have a full time job, 2 kids with activities and a house and hubby...plus 2.5 hours of commuting every day. My husband works opposite shift than me so I'm with kids alone for activities nights and weekends. I believe my horrible menopause symptoms and weight gain are because of the amount of stress along with the hormone change that started with menopause 2 years ago at the same time my father became ill with brain seizures and was bed-bound in our home and then later his home that I helped care for until he passed. I'm SO thankful to hear that I can work and FIX my hormones and health and most importantly my strength by fasting!!! THANK GOD to you Dr. Mindy!!! You are CHANGING my life and I hopefully will be around to see my kids grown up and have children of their own! God bless you!
How to reverse early menopause from over-fasting (adrenal fatigue, thyroid issues etc) Also what about - when fasting doesn’t work because stress causes muscle to break down and ketones don’t happen
Love Dr. Mindy! I have learned so much and love your book ~ fast like a girl. As a peri menopausal woman I wish I would’ve know these principles earlier on.
I’m on my weekly 72 hour water fast. I went on vacation and decided 48 hour fast was good enough. Now I’m in the six day Omad or fast. So I’ll do water fast 72 hours. Then Omad. My struggle is the 10-11 days of no fasting. And loving self. I was thinking just eat when I’m hungry. I’m usually only hungry 11-4. Is this thinking in alignment with Fasting Like a Girl? I believe I’ve got this. Thank you for the book. I’ve shared you to many of my girlfriends. We all want to share it with our daughters.
The information provided in this video is a quantum leap for me! ❤ And a little bit I’m smirking inside, bc obviously there are differences between male and female. Thank God we don’t havd to feel guilty here for knowing this physical, medical and hormonal fact.
Super Grateful for this much-needed discussion on Woman's Hormone Health!! Thank you both for sharing! Dr Mindy your wealth of knowledge on this is Incredible!! Thank you for being a Blessing💐💖
I love Dr Mindy Pelz and her passion for Woman's health, hormones and fasting! She is changing Woman's perspective on taking control of their health and empowering us through education!!!! ❤
Dr M.Hyman, I really think you're ideas can help many people, but this woman knows what she's talking about! know one knows women better than women. I agree with everything she is saying. I myself have struggled ever since I was a child that hit puberty at 11 years old it wasn't until I went into menopause at 46 that I notice all the changes over the years kudos to your guest her ideas are point on!!! Thank you❤
Wow, I did a 3-day fast while I was expecting my period and I never got it (she explains at 33 minutes)! She knows her stuff! Of course, I'm 51 and it _could_ just be perimenopause, _but_ it would be a very strange coincidence seeing as though all my periods have been perfectly regular until that very one.
OMG! This is gold! There is such a gap in medicine about hormones and women’s health. I would like to remind women here that there is such a thing as natural plant based (phytoestrogens) creams out there. And they work! They have none of the side effects of synthetic hormones. They have been a lifesaver for many women.
Thank you for this podcast. Now I fully understand myself. Why I felt sad and anxious sometimes. It's all about hormones.Healthy lifestyle is a must.Fasting is essential to have a healthy body & soul.
I started my dedication to fasting with an 86 hour water fast. It gave me that immune system reboot and all the other benefits. I’ll do another long one on the December solstice
When did you start to feel the benefit? Were the first 48 hours tough, and you felt good after the resetting started? Were there side effects? Thanks. You really jumped in head first! I'm glad it worked for you. Basing your major fasting around the major Earth cycles sounds very smart.
@@Anna_Key the first 48 hours were easier than the second 48. I felt really good for the first 48 and pretty darned tired and weak on day 3 and 4. I had some diarrhea when I broke my fast. I followed Mindys suggestions for breaking my fast. It took me 24 hours to feel better. But after that I had tons of stamina for fasting regularly. Now I switch up times and take a few days to not fast too. I’m having tons of strength stamina and radiant health for all endeavors in my life now more than ever
Love the information in the fast like a girl interviews. Big question - How about fasting like a post menopausal woman? I cannot find anyone speaking about this. Are we not still viable?
She is the best and always enjoy her interviews from men, they truly don’t understand women’s hormones in menopause, maybe if they get educated they wouldn’t leave their wives during that time.
So I am 73 years old and I’ve never taken any HRT and I am struggling with the fasting but I’m not giving up on it to get rid of my belly. My question is, is it necessary for me to take HRT or can I do this all with diet and fasting. I watched one video where it says you are actually taking HRT. Thank you.
I asked my mom about menopause once & she said it lasts about 2 weeks. She's past on, but yes, women/moms didn't discuss hormonal stuff. I'm post menopause now & was afraid to discuss with my dr in fear of being put on HRT. I love that you both are talking about this. I just dealt with things on my own. I don't have alot of symptoms anymore, except couldn't lose weight. But I am now thanks to you dr mindy. Eating alot healthier, 1 day of 24 fasts & IF. Been watching your videos! ❤
questions: 🎉MCT OIL OR olive oil added to coffee WILL HELP START TO ACCELERATE THE WEIGHT-LOSS PROCESS during a 36-72 fasting window? what about😅 **pure Chicory powder?** thanks for your work🎉!!
I’ve started the intermittent fasting. Eating from 9am - 5 pm. About a week now. Big change for me. Trying to eat 3 meals in 8 hours is hard to do. I may skip dinner and just eat two meals. I started the 48 hour fast at 2pm for the weekend. I think I can make it to Sunday at 2 pm. Excited to try it. I need a restart. September is a good goal for 72 hour fast. I’m having all my health tests done this year and so far all results are good. Battle of the bulge has been the only challenge. Let’s see if this fasting helps me.
Doc you asked my question 🙋♀️ I want to do a 36-72 hours but I loose weight very quickly and I am afraid I will loose to much muscle and it will be too hard to put it back without training very hard. Specially, I see my mother and she is 90lbs right now, she is only 5’1 but she is what we will called skinny fat. I have some metabolic issues and approaching the menopause stage early. I do want to reboot my immune system and repair but the weight loss will be a big down side for my body type.
I’m that one who got full in to OMAD and several prolonged fasting 72h and beyond. I did lost and felt great until I didn’t 😅I then gained 40lbs and feel I lost my control of my bod. I need to mix it up…🙏 Thank you for this video!!
Very curious about how this might play in for naturally thin, postmenopausal women (i just came off of HRT, after taking it for almost 10 yrs, and on my own accord, while my male Gyn questioned why I would 🙄) with GERD as not eating can have negative, enhanced effects on stomach acid production. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! 🙏🥰🙏
I think this is such a great break through for the upcoming young woman, and I for one could have gained a tremendous amount or relief from this new research, however I'm post post menapause (mentalpause) lol. But, I am going to at least have my cortisol and blood sugar checked and do the constant glucose check, because of my hashimoto's thyroiditis and blood sugar above 100 for years. 👍👍👍
I was doing great with this until I started listening to another keto expert. I have yet to get bk into my happy zone I'll call it. I was doing great for over two years or better. Then I changed up my food intact which in my opinion triggered picking in-between meals. It's been said, " if it ain't broke don't change it". Something like that. I was so happy with myself now again I feel out of control. It's not my weight so much but my in and out of keto. Sibo again cramps headaches ect. And weight sometimes. I am 62 female and struggling with food. I have not gone over 120 since I've been on healthy keto it's now just consistency.
The reason why we have these wonderful hormones is so that we can create life. Unfortunately we live lifestyles that doesn’t support our hormonal journey.
Hi Im 51 morbidly obese l am over the moon to have been recommended to your work. I have ordered your 2 books. Just waiting on them l did my first 36 hour fast and felt great but when l broke my fast with cellery juice I had the runs which I
I wana tell both of you doctors that as Muslim women we all experience that during ramadan fasting something changes in our body. We all get early periods than usual days without fasting. And women are religiously not allowed to fast during periods.
Was unaware of the testosterone multipliers for men. No wonder I get so aggressive by the end of a big fast. Thanks, hopefully this will help me not being blind-sided by it.
Hi Dr Mindy... Just watched your video on 7 foods you have stopped eating. By conventional fruits, do you also mean packaged supermarket fruit?? Ie...strawberries, berries etc?? I'm fighting with not having Haribos anymore...as these are my favourite... I can go without for ages then times I have them too much. I've been practicing my fasting...wating for your book to arrive, Monday 26th August '24 Thank you..Lorraine,age 47, Rawtenstall, England xx
Thank you for Dr. Pelz' well researched and practiced shift in health maintenance and women's health. This industrialized manufactured existence since WW II has contributed to hormone disrupting dysbiosis. Our ancestors were in touch with their bodies in relation to the natural world. I love her work with women's cyclical life.
great content, but the title is a bit misleading. I clicked on it to hear about when is a good time in my cycle to do a 72 hour fast and i don't think she really gave a guide on that. Guess will have to buy the book for it :/
There are polymorphisms that can make fasting one of the most unpleasant experiences of your life. Many of my liver pathway II enzymes have reduced or no function and if you fast your system just gets overwhelmed with toxins after a couple of days. That's something worth knowing. I wish someone had told me that before my medically assisted fast. It took me many, many weeks to recover from the effects of fasting
Always love the “drug and alcohol” reference. They are not remotely the same not even close. Sugar can be broken in a coupe of days whereas the addiction of alcohol or drugs is NEVER gone. Do you EVER see a person selling their children on the street corner for a Twinkie!
I was _forced_ to work on my gut microbiome when I developed a nearly life-threatening (asthma an 8 of 10) histamine intolerance. I couldn't eat _anything_ (low-histamine or not because of my body's release of histamine as part of the digestion process) without triggering an asthma attack. After 6 months of IF and longer (3-day fasts) and eating super clean low-histamine food I'm able to eat histamine rich foods with no reaction at all. I'm actually glad it happened or I never would have focused so intensely on my gut health. Never again will I mess it up; I've worked to hard to get myself straightened out.
@@debiwillis9045 I'm sorry you're going through this! I've posted to other people more specifically what I've done but my posts always get removed. I'm as clear about how I did it as I can apparently be without offending the RUclips gods. Blessings in your journey!
@@debiwillis9045 Not sure if it will allow this post but for the master food list and essential guidance at the top of the page Google "mcas histamine food list" and it should come up first. There's a banner with bright fruits and veggies at the top.
@@debiwillis9045 That other account was blocked here, sigh; it was so unfair. Anyway, I'm the OP logged in as Kar Giver. RUclips doesn't allow me to post anything more specific than I did originally. I'm sorry you're going through this and I'd say more if I could, but it gets deleted as "medical advice," I think.
I never get tired of interviews with Dr. Mindy. Her message is SO important, and I wish this was taught in health class.

questions: 🎉MCT OIL OR olive oil added to coffee WILL HELP START TO ACCELERATE THE WEIGHT-LOSS PROCESS during a 36-72 fasting window? what about😅 **pure Chicory powder?**
thanks for your work🎉!!
Regarding measuring cholesterol - when, during the monthly cycle would be optimal to have it measured, from the hormonal impact perspective? 🙏
Is it better to start the 30 day reset at the beginning of the month? Thank you for having this discussion 😢
Fascinating & enlightening! Thanks! 🙏🩵🩵🌸
I’ve started the intermittent fasting. Eating from 9am - 5 pm. About a week now. Big change for me. Trying to eat 3 meals in 8 hours is hard to do. I may skip dinner and just eat two meals. I started the 48 hour fast at 2pm for the weekend. I think I can make it to Sunday at 2 pm. Excited to try it. I need a restart. September is a good goal for 72 hour fast. I’m having all my health tests done this year and so far all results are good. Battle of the bulge has been the only challenge. Let’s see if this fasting helps me.
Grage info. I wish I had this knowledge when I was younger(I am 80)
Omg, I love this lady❤
Thanks a million for this interview!
What a great combination!!! 2 of my fav docs!!!!!!!
Doc you asked my question 🙋♀️ I want to do a 36-72 hours but I loose weight very quickly and I am afraid I will loose to much muscle and it will be too hard to put it back without training very hard. Specially, I see my mother and she is 90lbs right now, she is only 5’1 but she is what we will called skinny fat. I have some metabolic issues and approaching the menopause stage early. I do want to reboot my immune system and repair but the weight loss will be a big down side for my body type.
I’m 71 years vibrant and I’d like to know more about fasting for my age group.
Me to!
Thank you for sharing your abundant knowledge here. ❤❤❤
I’m that one who got full in to OMAD and several prolonged fasting 72h and beyond. I did lost and felt great until I didn’t 😅I then gained 40lbs and feel I lost my control of my bod. I need to mix it up…🙏 Thank you for this video!!
Same I was doing keto for 8uears and I did one meal a day and then even tried eating every other day I can not lose any weight no matter what I do
The video I needed for my fasting lifestyle! Thank you!
Oohhh I’ve been waiting for this interview!! 🎉 can’t wait to listen to it tomorrow
SHE IS THE BEST, I READ THE BOOK FAST LIKE A GIRL, VERY INTERESTING
Very curious about how this might play in for naturally thin, postmenopausal women (i just came off of HRT, after taking it for almost 10 yrs, and on my own accord, while my male Gyn questioned why I would 🙄) with GERD as not eating can have negative, enhanced effects on stomach acid production. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! 🙏🥰🙏
I think this is such a great break through for the upcoming young woman, and I for one could have gained a tremendous amount or relief from this new research, however I'm post post menapause (mentalpause) lol.
But, I am going to at least have my cortisol and blood sugar checked and do the constant glucose check, because of my hashimoto's thyroiditis and blood sugar above 100 for years.
👍👍👍
Thank you all so much recognizing these hormones and how important and the glands that produce these as well.
Kia ora Mindy could olive oil be used in coffee?
I was doing great with this until I started listening to another keto expert. I have yet to get bk into my happy zone I'll call it. I was doing great for over two years or better. Then I changed up my food intact which in my opinion triggered picking in-between meals. It's been said, " if it ain't broke don't change it". Something like that. I was so happy with myself now again I feel out of control. It's not my weight so much but my in and out of keto. Sibo again cramps headaches ect. And weight sometimes. I am 62 female and struggling with food. I have not gone over 120 since I've been on healthy keto it's now just consistency.
Such great information! Thank you so much - and Dr. Mindy, you look absolutely gorgeous.
The reason why we have these wonderful hormones is so that we can create life. Unfortunately we live lifestyles that doesn’t support our hormonal journey.
You are right, I was I. That hormo dilemma.
Thank you for explaining why there is an app for cycle tracking,
How does fasting affect endometrial hyperplasia ?

Is this just my body detoxing
I wana tell both of you doctors that as Muslim women we all experience that during ramadan fasting something changes in our body. We all get early periods than usual days without fasting. And women are religiously not allowed to fast during periods.
Love this pod cast great information
I love the idea of the Dutch test.
Was unaware of the testosterone multipliers for men. No wonder I get so aggressive by the end of a big fast. Thanks, hopefully this will help me not being blind-sided by it.
what medical training has dr mindy have?
Hi Dr Mindy...
Just watched your video on 7 foods you have stopped eating. By conventional fruits, do you also mean packaged supermarket fruit?? Ie...strawberries, berries etc??
I'm fighting with not having Haribos anymore...as these are my favourite...
I can go without for ages then times I have them too much.
I've been practicing my fasting...wating for your book to arrive, Monday 26th August '24
Thank you..Lorraine,age 47, Rawtenstall, England xx
Thank you for Dr. Pelz' well researched and practiced shift in health maintenance and women's health. This industrialized manufactured existence since WW II has contributed to hormone disrupting dysbiosis. Our ancestors were in touch with their bodies in relation to the natural world. I love her work with women's cyclical life.
This is so awesome. I love it!
Great information!
great content, but the title is a bit misleading. I clicked on it to hear about when is a good time in my cycle to do a 72 hour fast and i don't think she really gave a guide on that. Guess will have to buy the book for it :/
You can fast in 10 days from the day 1 of your cycle (when bleeding start), then you can in 16. - 19. day longer IF, not in 12.-15., 20. - end.
Please can you send me the Guide to fasting.
There are polymorphisms that can make fasting one of the most unpleasant experiences of your life. Many of my liver pathway II enzymes have reduced or no function and if you fast your system just gets overwhelmed with toxins after a couple of days. That's something worth knowing. I wish someone had told me that before my medically assisted fast. It took me many, many weeks to recover from the effects of fasting
How can I get a dutch test ?
Always love the “drug and alcohol” reference. They are not remotely the same not even close. Sugar can be broken in a coupe of days whereas the addiction of alcohol or drugs is NEVER gone. Do you EVER see a person selling their children on the street corner for a Twinkie!
2 of my superheroes on the same stage ❤😊
Menopause was almost hell. I wish I'd known you then Dr Mindy
what about fasting for people in their 70s? is it good or dangerous? and what about someone giving up alcohol for three days....is this not harmful?
I was _forced_ to work on my gut microbiome when I developed a nearly life-threatening (asthma an 8 of 10) histamine intolerance. I couldn't eat _anything_ (low-histamine or not because of my body's release of histamine as part of the digestion process) without triggering an asthma attack. After 6 months of IF and longer (3-day fasts) and eating super clean low-histamine food I'm able to eat histamine rich foods with no reaction at all. I'm actually glad it happened or I never would have focused so intensely on my gut health. Never again will I mess it up; I've worked to hard to get myself straightened out.
I have awful histamine issues would love to know what you did to heal
@@debiwillis9045 I'm sorry you're going through this! I've posted to other people more specifically what I've done but my posts always get removed. I'm as clear about how I did it as I can apparently be without offending the RUclips gods. Blessings in your journey!
@@debiwillis9045 Not sure if it will allow this post but for the master food list and essential guidance at the top of the page Google "mcas histamine food list" and it should come up first. There's a banner with bright fruits and veggies at the top.
@@debiwillis9045 That other account was blocked here, sigh; it was so unfair. Anyway, I'm the OP logged in as Kar Giver. RUclips doesn't allow me to post anything more specific than I did originally. I'm sorry you're going through this and I'd say more if I could, but it gets deleted as "medical advice," I think.
I am 85 is it safe for me to fast?
Interesting topic how can I get a copy of her book love to learn more about the 6 ways of intermit fasting
