What Women Over 40 Need to Know About Fasting and Hormones With Dr. Mindy Pelz

Do women really need to approach fasting and their health differently than men? The answer is a resounding yes. And as you get older, those needs become even more specific down to the stage of menopause that you’re in—so much so that women in perimenopause need a different approach than postmenopausal women to feel energetic and strong.  In this episode, I’m joined by women's hormone & fasting expert Dr. Mindy Pelz to talk about how women over 40 can create a lifestyle that keeps their hormones thriving. We’re covering what women before and after menopause need to know about their hormones, when and how to fast, and how to work with your body to feel your best.  Plus, I’m asking Dr. Pelz my burning question: Are fasting and building muscle at odds?  You’ll definitely want to hear her response.
