You told me you were so tired of hearing about fasting… 👀
So let’s Tell It Like It Is.
There’s a lot of noise around intermittent fasting being the answer for weight loss, energy and better health.
But like everything in nutrition, it’s not one-size-fits-all.
If you’re a perimenopausal woman struggling with low energy, cravings and inconsistent eating, longer or more rigid fasting windows may not be helping.
In fact, for some women, they can make things harder.
Personally, I tend to recommend a gentle 12-hour overnight fast for most people.
Why?
Because it supports:
✨ digestion and overnight repair
✨ stable energy the next day
✨ a natural rhythm without added stress
Without pushing the body into a prolonged stress response or triggering that cycle of restriction and cravings.
More extreme fasting doesn’t automatically mean better results.
Often, it’s the consistent, balanced approach that works best.
Fasting isn’t “bad.”
But more isn’t always better.
