Fasting is also powerful for manifesting. Fasting is one of several "existential manifesting techniques". Gasping for air, starving for food, procreation and fight or flight are others. The universe is always there to help you survive when you need help the most. But you can request the type of help it supplies. As crazy and bizarre as it seems, holding your breath until you get what you want really does have the potential to manifest your intention. Fasting with an unwavering visualization of a desired state can as well, for instance if you have a health problem and are fasting, the intensity and urgency of your starvation might stir the universe to find a way for you to get food and survive. However, if instead while you are hungry as heck you visualize being 100% healthy while you are feeling intense need for food the universe instead gifts you good health to ensure your survival.

My uncle has been fasting for one day a week for over 30 years, he only drinks water and on regular days doesn't mix meat with carbs. He also does oil pulling, and drinks aloe vera mixture he prepares with garlic and lemon. He is 83 and is so healthy, moves furniture, climbs ladders, and stairs, is looking after his tenants, drives to mountains, contribute to charities. He has been my inspiration for many years.
@@jeaninecousin8916usually people use coconut oil. Swish around your mouth for ~20 minutes a day and it’s supposed to help pull/kill off the bacteria in your mouth and teeth. I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve heard good things about it from a lot of people.
@@jeaninecousin8916 Swishing coconut oil in your mouth (people often do that instead of brushing their teeth with toothpaste, which is also very damaging to us due to fluoride). I actually did it for a year or two, then moved away from it by life. I should go back to it.
I’m so happy to hear her say that women aren’t meant to handle the stress that men can because it’s true! But if we suggest it, some people look at us like we are crazy. The fact is, men and women are made differently. It’s just nature.
45 yo empty nester here. I danced most of my life and never had to think about my health but this last decade I have not and I am feeling it. Fatigue, binge eating, 60lbs of weight gain, depression, loneliness, isolation, aches and pains etc. I have not found anything else online that resonates. so thank you for that because this gave me hope to make changes for myself
I'm also 45, been fasting 16-24 hours for 8 years now. I'm never sick and I look younger than everybody my age. IF won't do much to cure depression in my experience, but it has an amazing effect on healing your body. If you can do 24 hour fasting that's great. But don't forget the electrolytes. If you get cramps take pinch of sea salt and chug some water. To cure depression I suggest micro dosing on magic mushrooms. A week or two and the depression is gone. Plus it promotes brain plasticity so you will get smarter as well. It actually works, without any side effects. What the doctor gives you don't work or is close to placebo and it has horrible side effects. I've tried them all. Do these two things and you will feel like 20 again. It would be interesting to hear about your results, keep me updated. If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer them. Good luck stranger! :) EDIT: I almost forgot, if you're not already doing it, you need to take vitamin D3 (5000 IU), Omega3, amino acids and a high quality multi vitamin every day. And I suggest switching to sea salt instead of regular rock salt to get all the minerals you need. Now you are all set!
I agree. She's been with other podcast shows so far, this one is better and more coherent because the host is giving the guest more time to give information out to the public.
We need to fight back. The fact that everything is bioengineered, & the gwen towers they put in place while we were in a lockdown-it’s crazy! They destroying us with cancerous/high radiation machines.
I’m 57, going through menopause, morbidly obese going through a lot of stress in my personal life and fasting is saving my life!! I have been doing a 36-40 hour test a week and it has really bolstered my confidence that I can do hard things. I’ve been doing IF for the past 6 weeks or so and have lost about 15 lbs, have seen some positive changes in my skin, my sleep, and my whole relationship with food. A surprising side effect during the 36-40 hour fast is that when I go to bed slightly uncomfortable from not eating for so long, slightly hungry, it has made me more aware of what it feels like for those people who go to sleep hungry because they have no food. It’s made me aware and I’m motivated to help those in need. That’s not something I was expecting. It’s humbling to realize that most of us don’t have any idea what real hunger feels like.
This is so true. I went back to my mother's remote village in Papua New Guinea. Every morning, food wasn't just there. They wouldn't even eat fruits readily available first thing in the morning. Instead the activity was fishing- be it on a canoe or from a large bamboo surf rod. It took time. So from a natural wake up at about 5.15am - 10-20 mins to sunrise - we wouldnt eat until about 9am. You eat if you want to eat, and eat until satiated. Then rest or do things in the village, until we need to fish again or go to the gardens which weren't in the village. Even for water you'd have to walk to retrieve it from an underground cave. After 4 days of my 14 day trip, my body had adjusted, no pain, no brain fog. It was incredible.
I also grew up in the islands. Living was first and food came from living. Even as a young child there weren’t mealtimes. I too am going back to how I was raised…
8:00 We use energy when we eat (sugar-burning system that produces glucose), and we use energy when we don't eat (fat-burning system that produces ketone). Brain needs 50% ketone that enhances it. 9:40 It takes at least: - 8 hrs of fasting to switch in that metabolic state, - 12 hrs to bring mental clarity and turns off the hunger hormone, - 15 hrs to growth hormone to go up - this keeps us young, helps burn fat, increase testosterone by 13%, reduce inflammation, - 17 hrs to recover injury, remove bad cells, cells repair themselves, prevent bacteria passage, hypothalamus repair themselves and helps reduce PCOS - autophagy, - 36 hrs to boost belly fat burn 12:13 Breakfast is the most important meal of in a day. Sugar intake has great effect to body the rest of the day. 18:50 Take protein after the fasting to increase muscle growth 20:00 1st type (14/10) - 14hrs without food, 10 hours with food 21:20 2nd type (Autophagy) - 17 hrs without food 36:55 3rd (gut) - 24 hrs without food (stem cells reboot themselves) 38:30 4th (fat-burner fast) - belly-fat burner, removing unnecessary body weight to survive. 39:50 5th (dopamine) - produce more dopamine and satisfies our hunger with we eat food. 49:15 - coffee with sugar breaks fasting 1:00:00 - stress, great effects to health. In spain, 3d work-leave at start of period to reduce stress (should be 3d before). 1:08:00 - 15min for men to refill and increase testosterone. Women are more outgoing prior ovulation. Day 2 to Day 12 of cycle to talk best with women. Day 12 to Day 15 - libido is highest. 1:20:00 - menopause at 40-45, understand women 1:39:00 - women best to take magnesium, while men best to take zinc for testosterone; both need vitamin D 1:40:00 - detox pathways (armpit/ pubic areas) 1:53:20 - with extra cardio, calories go up, cortisol level goes up, progesterone (keeps estrogen in check) goes down, estrogen goes up because not in check, estrogen can be stored as fat.
This is literally the best podcast I've ever experienced. 1) your guest is awesome and informative 2) you are genuine in your curiosity 3)You question and ask for the evidence 4) all of this offers genuine value and learning potential
The whole episode is phenomenal, but I have to say... he is SO good at this work because he actually LISTENS to engage. So many podcasters spend more time thinking about the next thing THEY want to say, like they'd rather hear themselves than their guest. He's just so thoughtful and processes everything his guests bring. It's a breath of fresh air.
Agreed! I love his interviews not just because of the jewels the guests always drop, but the way HE conducts an interview and LISTENS intently, while processing and engaging in what was actually said. He does all this while still controlling the interview’s flow and timing. I adore men with this ability- it’s so important & balancing, especially from the perspective of this chatty woman! 😅
I am so ashamed to write this, but as a 30 year old woman from Eastern European country this is the first time I was able to hear and fully learn about women's menstrual cycle. Especially menopause. Even though 70% of my family is all women we never talked about it, believe it or not - my mom never told me about a period. Learned from the internet. So glad that nowadays all this information is so accessible and we are tearing down all the "shame" (of what?). Love this podcast and this episode so much! Thank you Steven and Dr. Pelz, already on amazon searching for her books to further down my education :)
You are not alone. And too often we are unaware of our hereditary health concerns, just because they were never spoken of. Communication is so important. ❤
I hate that but glad you found this video. I was the same way. Im 40 and I learned from the tampon box and after we had tried to have kids for years without luck. Now I know it’s best to teach my daughter that she can talk to me about anything. She’s only 4 though.
I’m glad that you has the internet. I had books,tg. Not the one and only book she ever told me I should read. It was all about flowers. I was twenty before I realized what it was symbolic of.😂
Hi Anna Maria my name is Agnes Teresa Maria nad my daughters name Anna that's why it took my attention to read your message. I am also from Eastern Europe. I ah e learned about my period in the most horrific way when I was a teen, got up at night to pee and screamed bloody murder in the middle of night , I thought I'm dying that's it's end of me. My Grandparents , my aunt with baby and uncle , my Mom bursted into the bathroom and all started to laugh. I was told I am a woman now. That's how my womanhood issues started, shame. I educated my children the minute their puberty started about period and not to mention I project my menstruation fear on them. It was not celebrating being a woman it was a curse. My whole life to the point my uterus was removed. That's how your mind works!!!! My children already knew about menstruation, sex from internet and school. There is a lock of proper education I think and too much tabu and politics and we women suffer! Men- o- pause ? I had no idea what it is until I and my baby and my body went into menopause at age 33!!!! I am 51 and still going!! Because there is pre, menopause, and post. Fasting, vegan diet, hydration, yoga helped me so much with symptoms. The sooner you start changing your diet and cutting crap food, coke, Pepsi, chips , and stresssssssssssss eliminate as much as you could. And I eat when I'm hungry , sometimes I don't eat at all. And I'm ok. And do I over eat? I can't.
I had my 3rd kid at 40. My ex walked out 5 months later. So I spent my 40s raising an infant, 4 & 6 year old alone! After listening to her, I'm a freaking goddess! 😂😂😂😂 ❤
@@AJ-dw9or So far I did the 24 hours fasting. Only water and black coffee. And was doing exercise during it. Sharp mind, no fatigue, lost belly fat. Also No food cravings. Planning on 48 hours fast this weekend.
She changed my life, Ive followed her advice and have been on one meal a day now for 3 months and I have lost 24 pounds and I am beginning to get myself back and my self esteem • She is an angel and this is the most profound UA-cam video I have ever watched • THANK YOU Dr Mindy Pelz
Well done, congratulations. I also recommend Dr Sten Ekberg and Eric Berg MD. Both have huge chanels on you tube and tons of informations on Keto and fasting. Also very articulate and well spoken
I'm trying to loose weight and I fast for 18 hours .. weight not moving what do you have for your one meal I'd like to try it ...I lost ten kilo then just stopped 😢xx
@@carolinerobertson2091Try to eat more protein first, then green vegetables and fiber. For example, some fish or chicken with a green salad with only lime and salt. Also, you can eat black beans or kidney red beans for your fiber portion. You can use another fiber resource you like; remember, they are an excellent source of carbohydrates, too. Most importantly, remove sugar from your drinks and food and change white flour products. I lost 14 lbs in one month and then 6 lbs in the second month. I started fasting on 18/6, and now I have changed to 20/4. It isn't easy, but I never felt so well.
This Ramadan I am strength training and breaking my fast with lots of protein. I have been losing weight and I feeling stronger than ever before, it all makes so much sense after watching this. Thank you !
I have listened to a few Dr. Mindy’s interviews before, but this genuinely is the best one. Huge respect to Steven for not being afraid to look naive or silly and ask very simple, yet fundamental questions. Those questions made entire conversations much much richer. I am in awe of his interviewing skills!
My mom decided not to do chemo for her diagnosed breast cancer. She did fasting for over 72hours and she has been cancer free for 3years now. She continues to do fasting cycles. It is once of the most amazing underrated healing methods.
May I know more about 72 hours fasting your mom did. Was it with just water or waterless or something else? Please share the knowledge as it would benefit me immensely!
Wow….. I can honestly say that as a 61 year old woman, now retired healthcare practitioner, mother and wife, who has always put everyone first, listening to the last question of this podcast, has made me finally decide that I actually need to think about me. I feel quite emotional just listening to the honest and refreshing conversation that you guys had. I have to admit that this will definitely change my way of thinking and my habit’s. I started fasting a week ago (16/8), I understand so much more now and know what I’m doing wrong! So have some things to change today. I hope the impetus I feel after listening to this will not diminish too quickly. Thank you to both of you.
Thank you for adding emphasis to this. I'm glad I saw your comment before moving on to something else.qq I have just found this video and am in the same boat as you were. I hope you have kept it up or will decide to start again.. i am convinced that when we love ourselves we contribute more and better, but it's time for me to adjust my behavior accordingly! Thanks , again!❤
Saw this podcast in June 2023, bought her book, fasted as recommended around my cycle: the weight dropped so fast! All I had to do is maintain it with good nutrition and increased steps... 3 months later dropped 15lbs, 6 months later weight is finally stable. I've been struggling for 2 years to lose my post baby weight. Thanks so much for this podcast 🎉
@frugalmomofmany I followed a diet with whole foods vs keto. I prioritized protein and made sure to have good sources of fiber (rice, potatoes, quinoa ...) but also lots of fruits and veggies. Also, I think the number one thing that helped me stop snacking is meal prepping. Prep BF, lunch and dinner and even snack daily to help manage cravings. Hope this helps
Aimed for a 36h fast thinking I could not make it past 24h, I ended up reaching 48h. I was amazed at how quickly my body adapted. If you are thinking about it, let this be your sign 🙌 I felt super sharp at work and light, more energised overall. Totally worth it!
Amino acids are found in wide variety of food. Saying amino acids are found in “meat” is misleading. Where does the “meat” get the amino acids. We eat plant eaters. So They get there amino acids from the plants they eat.
Yep, the 1st 24 to 36 hours is the hardest, but from day 3 you can go for as long as you want. Your body will let you know when it needs food again, not from hunger pangs, but from your body feeling you from the core. I felt like my bones were hungry :)
My 65-year-old mom started intermitting fasting last year and lost 20kg in the first 12 months. Before that, she was overweight for years (decades). She is looking and feeling younger than she was 5 years ago. But the most important thing of all the benefits she's seen is probably self-confidence because she proved to herself that she can do something so significant. I'm so Proud of her. Hopefully, her story can inspire others to try it out and see if it works for them. It's fascinating to see her grow older in age, but getting younger with her physique.
What a great conversation! My husband learned to recognize my mood swings.. instead of fighting he learned how to make me laugh. This changed our marriage.
I’m 67 now and honestly when I look back at that time of perimenopause I feel like I went thru the war for 15-17 years. The sweats, hair loss, loss of libido, the belly fat, brain fog and terrible depression. I had no help, I didn’t do anything for myself, any estrogen offered gave me terrible cramps. I’m making it a point now to learn and treat myself better.
I started perimenopause at 43 and now at 54 still going through symptoms. Use black cohosh for hot flashes. I am on carnivore diet and I do intermittent fasting and I have noticed hot flashes are less frequent. Frankly, menopause royally sucks and the belly bloat and brain fog are maddening. I won't do hormone replacement because I don't want to increase risk of breast cancer. I do feel that getting rid of sugar, refined sugars,carbs, and seeded oils (canola, cottonseed etc.), have really helped with symptoms.
@xylay3540my situation is a little different I was dropped into instant menopause at 40 after a total hysterectomy to remove endometriosis. Once in my 5 year journey I went off the meds for a week. It was then I absolutely marveled that any woman could/ would go thru this without HRT 🤯 I was always going to take hrt as being in full blown MP at just 40 is very undesirable. I know it may sound lame but I was tremendously concerned with accelerated aging. Not just on my face but in my body, brain fog, aching joints, weight gain… I have certainly experienced these but not on the level of my 2 friends who cannot take HRT bc their endo was unable to be completely removed. My point of writing this is to say please do not needlessly suffer. Research & advances have been made since our mothers took hrt. Should you find yourself losing your hair, sex drive, dry skin, night sweats, excessive anger & mood swings to name a few- give hrt a try for a couple of months. For me that little blue pill is so vital to my well being that the benefits far outweigh the potential consequences.
I’m am so engrossed in this. I’m 51. Premenopausal. 30lbs overweight and a sugar addict. I also have 6 herniated discs so exercise is difficult. I hurt from head to toe and have chronic fatigue. This is the first thing I have heard that sounds promising. I have been so depressed lately about the way I look and feel. I am terrible with sticking to any diets. Feel like I’m at the end of my rope. I’m ordering the book today! Wish me luck.
We do wish you the best. If you overcome whatever resistance you feel to changing yourself, you will change how you age and so much else. Don't give up! If you slip, start again! Yay, you!❤❤❤
Take a nature walk. Walk in a place that you like. Do small things like 5 planks or modified planks in morning and evening. Build up over time. Don't do fad diets .eat real foods, but give your self grace on the days you have the cake..and DON'T eat it and assign negative thoughts to it. Enjoy it. Notice all the flavors in processed foods and I bet you can find a flavor in there that you don't like. Processed foods abuse our dopamine receptors 😂 and we loose. Write down what you want and what the changes would need to be and start small. Like on" Saturday I will make a healthy balanced meal that I can freeze for the week. On Sunday I am going to stretch and walk at "X" park." Have fun and I wish you the best!!
Please make a panel discussion where Dr. Mindy Pelz (hormones and fasting expert), Satchin Panda (circadian and hormones expert) and Katie Brindle (Chinese medicine expert > breakfast is the most important) share their wisdom on food, lifestyle and health. That conversation would blow our mind and I think the world is ready for those deep insights 🎉
Exactly, there is so much confusion out there. Is it fasting or calorie deficit created by fasting, eat breakfast, don’t eat breakfast, no idea what I am supposed to follow to get me out of a slump!
@@sascho755 thank you for taking the time post. Appreciate your advice, and yes I am overweight. I do row and walk min of 10,000 and know it’s my food choices holding me back. I guess what I am most concerned about is impact on my metabolism having yo yo dieted since I was 12. Just trying to find the plan that fits this menopausal body I am trying to learn to improve and love.
Absolutely fantastic episode so so informative as a peri menopausal women its like a mine field thankyou so much for this vitamin d and magnesium ordered ❤❤
Love the respect that Steven was showing by LITERALLY taking notes on how better to understand his girl. That is what mindfulness and attentiveness looks like :)
This was the best talk you ever had in this podcast, hands down. I could not stop listening to it. I have been intermittent fasting for nearly 2 years, but I've learned so much more today. I bought the book... This, what this incredible woman is saying, is gold dust! I will take my fasting to a new level because of her. People, humans, need to stop thinking of food all the damn time, we are not designed for this. 4 meals a day, 6 meals a day, snacks. We need to stop doing what the food industry is asking us to do. Eat ourselves to death...
actually, we are meant to eat, that's why our jaws are so weak, now, we're not supposed to eat high calorie, food ( s ), that's the thing, that's the problem,,.
I do 24hr a day fasting traditionally for the last 7years, and all she telling us is absolutely what I've experienced in my life, I never get sick, I run 10km 4x a week, and feel energetic more than anytime. Fasting Benefits is more than we can imagine.
@@quad3r I guess he means, he'll fast for 24hrs maybe taking only water. Then he'll have a good meal and then fast another 24hrs, cycle continues like that.
She's being manipulative. Her information is pseudoscience. Just look up reviews on her book from Registered Dietitians and other nutrition experts. She is merely another chiropractor trying to get famous.
Today is 5.24.24. I have no idea HOW I came upon this podcast but I am SO GLAD THAT I DID. I started to cry when she began to talk about menopause and women being unable to hold onto information like we used to. I have said this in my life to my husband, my siblings, my mentor at work and my boss. I mostly get the side eye or the empathetic nod like they are TRYING to understand but just don’t. To have this confirmed as an actual symptom of a loss of estrogen brings me such relief. Now I KNOW that I’m not crazy and I’m not making this stuff up. And what she said about the ability to handle stress now is definitely on point. I’m in my mind 50’s and have been in menopause for a full year…takes at least 3yrs of no cycle before they consider you in full menopause. It has been one HECK of a ride. Subscribed
OMG!! I am a 62 year old man surrounded by women Wife, daughters, granddaughters , Mother, nieces, in-laws and friends. Wow! How enlightening! Thank you! I plan to be more empathetic, helpful, healthy and now wiser. Cheers
I recently began to do 3-day water fasting. The belly fat that I’ve been trying to lose for a decade has been ‘vanishing!’ Joints have stopped aching, skin has improved and energy is up. I also feel more positive mood. I’m glad I learned about fasting. It works for me!
@oma7698. When u said water fasting. Do u mean not drinking water or only drinking water only. I want to try this can u still take zinc n medications. N melatonin at night but no food. Thank you for replying back. I deff want my belly fat to go
@@lordandrew3375 water fast only, meaning only drinking water, I currently do 24-36hr fasts and slowly building up to 48-72hr water intake only fasts, in regard to medications and supplements I would do further research, however I still take my zinc/magnesium during my fasts and don’t notice any difference. But to each his own, recommend doing a little more research though as everyone is different
@@lordandrew3375Water fasting means that only water digested. It is advisable to take some electrolytes with that also, one option being the salt types mentioned. Those have the minerals your body needs, especially important if you are losing them by swetting.
There are several parts of this that brought me to tears. My mother passed away from an accidental overdose at 48 years old. Two years prior she had a some sort of switch and she completely changed from the person I knew my whole life. The explanation of women during menopause has given me a new level of understanding to what may have been going on for her in the last few years of her life. I’ve also struggled with my weight my entire life. I feel very defeated with my appearance most days and it prevents me from having any motivation to keep going when it comes to health. Knowing that my body isn’t working against me but rather working for me to survive and place fat outside rather than internally has just shifted the way I think of my body and myself. Thank you so much for spreading this information. I truly feel like I will walk away with lifestyle changes after this video.
Although the discussion about the menstrual cycle and mood is interesting, what about cases of women having no observable period (e.g., pregnant) on which to base "day one" of a cycle and how to relate with us and optimize our mental health, brain power, and creativity?
ps do a parasite cleanse for a possible cause of over eating/weight gain. see yt ch Candida eric bakker naturopath, Dr Berg, Dr Group, Dr Axe, Dr Hilda Clark, Road to perfect health brenda watson = good info. Vets know that if an animal is over eating they have parasites...back 100 years ago citizens use to do parasite cleanses several times a year (many countries today still do this health protocal)...big phrama companies came into play and dont want healthy people they want sick people who will take Rx drugs for life to stop symptoms but, not cure. Dr Group states in his vid that he believes 90% of USA citizens have parasites....Dr Hilda Clark stated that all "disease is caused by parasites". Herbs from your local health food store = parasite cleanse with a good diet like keto and/or Carnivore diet heal the gut.
This woman is the most amazing. She gave this information away for free. This is the best advice and interview I've ever seen. Thank you so much for helping the world with your knowledge, for free!!!

Fasting has saved my life quite literally and Dr Mindy has been the key influencer. I've paid out so much money on diets but Dr Mindy'advice helped me not only save money but I've lost 2stone in weight in just 8 weeks without masses of physical activity. At 70 years old I have more energy, my joints don't ache like before, and I don't have an addiction to sugar any longer and I look so much better! I can't thank her enough!
@@74the_magpie hello, just watch the video's to see how you do it. The other emotional 'how' is getting to a point when you are so sick of eating Gaviscon like sweets and the weight affecting all that you do, like it was for me. I just reached a point when I said "No more"! I then started the next day cutting out all sugars and refined foods. I don't regret a day since and can allow a biscuit or a piece of cake into my daily plan, occasionally. It's no longer a 'need to have' sugar or carbs! Hope that helps.
I listen to podcasts all the time and I have never come across a more connecting one. Each and every question was being asked from such a genuine place of curiosity and each answer was wrapped in kindness and deep concern for the humankind. It is heartwarming to see that such important and life changing facts were shared here with so much grace, passion and vulnerability. Thank you Steven and Dr. Mindy. This is a heart touching and a life changing podcast.
I'm from Zambia, Southern Africa, I'm deeply moved with this episode, I wish more people could have access to this information. It's so educative and life changing! Thank you so much!
This episode changed my life. I'm watching it for the second time because I can't get enough of the insights. I started intermitted fasting 7:17 and I've never felt so great. I feel light, sharp, awake and active. I've coupled my fasting with one hour evening walks after my last meal, and I've dropped some good weight. #advocateforfasting
Probably the fasting not for everybody. I am eating one meal a day almost a year now. My waight is the same, im overwaight, i got diabetes 2,thyrox problems, high bloodpressure... And all the same. No effect what so ever. Exept, when im not eating, im more consetrated and energy level is high.
Y’all don’t have any contacts with Muslim people? We’ve been doing this since 1440 years, and we’ve been shat on as long for doing it lol. 1 month a year then 2 days a week , it changes everything mentally you become so sharp and way more disciplined, fasting is the door towards stoicism
@@Those.who.stay.silent.consent Philosophers in Ancient times fasted, The Magians of Persia influenced those Philosophers, Salman one of those Magians created Islam as a means to squash a civil war and it became something much more than expected look into Jason Reza Jorjani interviews.
My sentiments exactly, this is reliable information which should’ve been taught to us in health class. Back in the ‘70’s the pyramid was a falsity presented to us purely for profits of food manufacturers. Finally the truth came out. It’s beneficial to learn something new each day. Best to you Renee with great respect🙏🏽
My great grandmother was 97 years old and she cook roti and do all the things on her own. She fasted on Monday, Tuesday Thursday . And months of Shravaan due to Hindu tradition. I think yogis in olden days used to do the same meditation and fasting for long duration for enlightenment!
So you’re only taking water but how do you do this fasting. If i have my breakfast at 11am i’ll have to wait for 36hours to eat next meal? This way i’ll have no enough proten, carbs, fat any nutrients going in my body 😯😯
@alinashahid3798 I attempted today, but failed miserably. I hate fasting but have insulin and cortisol resistance, so I NEED to somehow fast for 36 hrs to jump-start the weight loss.... 😞
Dr. Mindy changed my life. I started intermittent fasting 6 months ago after I watched this podcast. I have dropped 18 pounds and have never felt or looked better. I just started her book and I am learning even more. Thank you for this podcast!
This lady is absolutely spot on. I suffered sepsis last year and it took me a long time to recover physically and for many months I still felt weak and shakey. I was very overweight (110kg) and had been for most of my adult life. Back in November I read a brief article on intermittent fasting and thought sod it, give it a go! I'm now 87 kg so still have a way to go but feel so much better in myself. I have breakfast and lunch no later than 1pm and then nothing but water after that. The only thing I've cut out of my diet is processed foods, I make my own bread and biscuits. I eat cheese, real butter red meat and pretty much everything else as long as it's home made. I can now exercise which I wasn't able to face before. Anyone reading this who's having doubts, just give yourself a month and stick to it strictly. If it works out for you and you start seeing the weight go down it becomes a lot less difficult, you'll find yourself doing it gladly. You'll soon realise that what you thought was hunger is actually just cravings but you'll feel so proud in yourself with each day that you stuck to it :)
I think for those suffering an eating disorder this is a dangerous statement. Also you state you cut out all processed food that in itself without the fasting would have effected your health and weight.
Been doing OMAD (one meal a day) since May (2024) and I've gone from 310 lbs to 240 lbs. I am no longer on blood pressure medication or colesterol medication. Six months. That's all it took.
My brain is at a loss for how to describe the impactfulness of this interview. There are simply no words. Only a feeling that is indescribable. Thank you both 🙏🏾
I can't get enough of this woman. Please bring her back and do more episodes with her. You are both so very informative and inspirational, you both make such a good team.
What a great episode! As a muslim woman. She just explained the science behind Islam’s fasting and recommended eating habits and lifestyle. May Allah bless her 🙏
45:00 I had a garden injury during Covid and struggled to get an appointment. It affected my groin area and also found I was limping from time-to-time when my leg would give out from under me. I thought perhaps it was a hairline fracture. The pain came on when I was double-digging and hit a huge rock with my spade. The pain lasted weeks. I tried everything in my holistic toolbox and the pain continued. Armed with the knowledge of cell repair I then decided to do a water fast, and after that, the pain was gone, never to return again. Did you know that when you fall ill and find that you're not feeling hungry, it's actually your body's clever way of starting to mend itself? Here's how it works in simple terms. Normally, your body uses a lot of energy to digest food. When you're sick, your body decides to use that energy for healing instead of digestion. So, it reduces your appetite to shift the focus. If you have an infection, eating less can sometimes help your body fight it off better. Certain germs thrive on the sugar and iron in our food, so by eating less, you're cutting off their supply. Think of it like closing a busy road to fix it properly. When you're not eating much, your body gets a chance to repair itself without the extra work of digesting food as your body refocuses' its energy for repair. What a wonderful healing machine we have!
Indeed, and everyone around me always kept pushing, you have to eat to gain strength. And always it would come out the same way as it came in. Sadly I can also not hold water down when sick. Day 2 and 3 are the worst, after that I can begin to drink more try some chicken Bouillon and start to get better. Only thing I need is a bucket, water and 3 days sleep. And now I know why. It's just my body saying no to food
This episode made me cry. I have never felt more understood in my entire life. Everything said about cycles resonates so much with me, I feel like my personality changes so much during the course of a cycle and my strength during the last week is so low (both emotionally and physically). I’m 28 and never heard how I feel so accurately described! 🎉
Octavia, just change your diet drastically 10 days before period eat like a Japanese lady: miso soup, green tea, fish, sea food - scallops, octopus, sea cucumber ect. and lots of green leafy vegetables in a bone broth and you'll see stable mood, happy disposition, great digestion with no bloating, unremarkable periods, and no more cramp. The worst you can do is to keep eating wheat, corn, soy and other processed grains which are also main feed for commercial livestock - highly proinflammatory!
I absolutely love Dr. Mindy!! She was so spot on about everything!! I am so grateful 🙏 I came across her on UA-cam!! It's been absolutely life changing. If every doctor had her passion to help & educate we could be in such a great place!! So thankful for her!! 💯 🙏❤️
I’m 64. This valuable information about a women’s cycle and fasting wasn’t around in my day. Come to think of it, my mom still hasn’t had “that talk” with me. LOL.
@@janethagen3385I'm right there with you sister! Talk about not having the talk; My Mom (now 95) said her Mom had no talk with her; rather she handed her a cloth and closed the door. My Mom says she didn't know whether to tie that cloth around her neck, or wad it up and hope for the best! This is great info.
as a son husband and father of a little princess I've learned so much about women's cycles in watching this podcast interview which I thought was primarily about intermittent fasting interview with dr. mindy platz who's an author and expert on the subject but specifically on how it relates to women in her book fast like a girl this podcast that's made me more aware and realize I need to learn more to be able to support the women in my life 🙏🏽😘👩🏻🤦🏽♂️👧🏻🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰🙏🏽👍🏽 sorry I wrote this partially to share it on social media and others in my life if my comments are confusing 🙏🏽😘👩🏻👶🏻👧🏻🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰🙏🏽👍🏽
As a 53 year old athlete who had trained his entire life , had the benifits of coaches and all the science , I am so impressed by this podcast , Its even at a higher level than I ever was instructed , but even more digestible , as a man I am also somewhat embarrassed I had no clue related to all hormones and cycles related to women . This podcast gets 11/10
Don't worry. I know more than all but one of my doctors about hormones. I know more about the various biomes in a human body than any of them. I hardly know anything. I'm sure you know more than yours, too. It's simply not in their training, neither do most of them pursue the knowledge down the line.

I’ve been fasting for the last 8 years and what I’ve come to realize is managing stress and cortisol in this whole situation has added a new dimension to my health in a positive way
You have been fasting 8 years?? Not possible! Ok if you been fasting of and an or intermittent fasting 8 years but if you been fasting 8 years not possible

Ending day 3 on 18-21 hrs of (wet) fasting. I already have less pain in my joints, and I feel great. Weight is down even if only 0.8 lbs but sleep increased (possibly because being sick), and about an inch off my waist, hip, and things. Down time is great.
"The purpose of living a fulfilled-life is touching humans you'll never actually meet." (Dr Mindy Pelz) Wow... This is definitely one of my favorite episodes. Many thanks to both of you!!!
I am in perimenopause and starting intermittent fasting when my mothers memory went and dementia took hold. I was fasting all wrong (for a girl) and although i was seeing some benefits, I wasn’t feeling that much better. Once I found Mindys You tube channel, that all changed. I am about to complete my 2nd round on the 30 day reset fast and its a game changer. I was afraid I’d put back the weight suddenly eating more after months of 20 hour fasts. The opposite happened. My sleep improved, my mood improved. The night sweats have reduced in severity. I dont weigh myself but i have lost belly fat, which has been next to near impossible for me in the past. It’s not hard to do, and I am razor sharp and focused while I’m fasting. The hunger is just a wave that leaves within a few minutes. I recommend getting to know your hormones and following Mindys channel. And if called, get her book, but really she offers so much on line that you could do with the videos only if you’re strapped for cash like many of us are these days.
I have cancer. I'm so glad she talked about all the toxins and skin being a breathable organ. If you want to prevent cancer or heal from cancer, must get rid of it ALL
I have done fasting research about 2 years. Read a lot of books about this. Testing my body all the time. This woman is brilliant. One of the best podcast about fasting in all YT. In this moment I bought book of Dr. Mindy Pelz about fasting and hormones. It will be great to have it.
Oh I love this. I'm a cancer patient, and I've been told the importance of fasting, but for so long I have resisted it. Too scared my body can't handle it. This episode has given me so much hope, and a new direction. Thank you so much for this! Amazing conversation, great topics, so much info and insight to be gained from this entire interview.
Your body can totally handle it. Let it do what God designed it to do. Just remember to take either Himalayan or Celtic sea salt (1t) once a day works for me. 2t may be needed. If water fasting beyond 48hours advisable to consult a physician. Let her know your goal(s), as there can be many that water fasting addresses. Then as you work your way to the 72 hour mark just smile if you get hunger pains. They will subside and you will feel your body going into autophagy. Your clarity of mind and the positive effects of muscle building routine will surprise you. I'm a former fitness and fashion model (NYC and Europe for Gorgio Armani decades ago) and feel amazing after my 7th 72-hour water fast last week. I'm about to turn 60.
I watched this one week ago, and started intermittent fasting, and as of yesterday I’ve lost 6 pounds! Thank you so much for this video! It is saving me. I switched my oils nearly 10 years ago to ONLY coconut, avocado, and evoo. I also haven’t been consuming any processed carbs. Thanks for giving Dr. Pelz this platform. I follow her now too. This is also helping with the MS diagnosis.🧡🧡🧡❤️❤️🧡🧡
Unless your eating natural coconut or coconut oil then you're making a mistake as coconut oil has twice as much saturated fats as other oils, The study was done on MCT oil which coconuts have components of but the studies weren't don't on coconuts. Look it up. Sorry for the intrusion i just couldn't not just say something.
I am in my sixties. my period stopped at around 50. Fortunately I never had any of the typical menopausal symptoms. Always was very aware of my cycle and what it signified. Never took hormones, fully understood and worked with my natural cycle and had 2 children. NEVERTHELESS, this is the most eye opening talk about the beauty of a woman's cycle. Listening to you opened a window of appreciation I never felt before. Wish I had come across such talk some 40 years ago. Wonderful
This is my third time watching this whole interview because it is packed with information which has led me to a healthier lifestyle. I am 71, have lost 30lbs thru intermittent fasting and my skin glows. I look 29 years younger than when I retired. If I get off track and eat unhealthy or don’t fast and start to gain weight, I watch the videos again. It has been life changing and I love this interview. Great job!!
Just finished her book. Just life changing!! Did a 72 hour fast last week and it was amazing! Dropped 7 pounds! Now I am doing weekly fasting! I love how simple this is!
@@acurisur@mdyeasin1133 the knowledge doesn't belong to ANY religion. Humans knew this shit before stupid man-made religion came around. If you're spiritual, talk to God/Divine/Spirit and ask these questions, you will easily get answers. I did, in a quest for health over 15 years ago, and I don't belong to any religion! I can't stand this separation religion creates and that everyone falls for. So damn stupid and ignorant!
This podcast is brimming with information to the point it almost feels illegal to watch. These life-changing findings motivate me to immediately integrate them into my daily life. The way that dr.Mindy was able to compress all those fruits of research and stats in order to be absorbed easily by regular audience is nothing less than amazing. Props to Steven for being engaging and always doing his homework to understand each guest's work.
I have no idea what you guys are talking about. This is all useless information. You guys aren’t going to change ANYTHING! You got a good feeling while watching this. That’s all. You’ll forget about it in a day.
Dopamine is the chemical of MORE, it’s not the chemical of enough. This whole podcast is life changing . I’ve been researching things forever, and have done fasts in the past, but, its been years. but, this podcast inspired me to fast immediately. I’m now on day 4 of fasting after watching this. So compelling & inspiring! Thank you!
Because a lot of them are from the same Source, but they have been tampered by humans except the correct one (the Quran has been preserved unlike the other scriptures). Which is why we muslims believe in all the prophets Allah sent like Moses, Jesus, Noah, Muhammad etc and the book He revealed. So we see many similarities (&differences of course because we only worship One God without any partner, no human/statue/multiple gods/sun/moon etc) @@AncaBilbie Have you read her book ??? I was contemplating getting the audible version but don't know if it's worth it ☺
It changed my whole perspective of being a hormonal driven woman ,with a lifetime of getting judged by my weight mostly by other women close or strange and a lot of men. I feel understood and empowered to continue my second half of my life. Thank you Mindy for the revelation and starting a new revolution of health and wellbeing
Was in a delta state of sleep listening to this delightful conversation. Will listen again tonight. Writing down now when to begin my 5 day fast. This talk is so inspirational as I am healing from breast surgery and the loss of my sister and niece. I wish I could have healed them but now I will begin the process of healing myself. I have abused my body through neglect and sugar for too long now. I am committed to being in optimal health by the end of this year. I have already lost over 20 lbs. My goal is 100 lbs lost. Thank you for your podcasts. I am a very big fan. You are beautiful and wonderful.

One more comment - I never ever felt better than the 9 months I was pregnant (at age 44). I woke up at 6am, bright, happy, energetic, very zen.. worked out like crazy.. and this is in contrast to being my normal (autistic) self - low energy, mildly frustrated all the time, extremely low testosterone, sore joints, back pain.. all that melted away when I was pregnant. Now at age 55, I'm fasting for the first time and it's FINALLY helped to bring me back to that balance I felt when I was pregnant. I know, weird! Thanks Dr Mindy!
Interesting perspective. I’m also autistic- I’ve been pregnant 9 times (ending in 6 live births) from age 25 to now (age 36). Horrible morning sickness and back/hip pain. Mood wise, I’ve been stable. Except this one. I’m 9 weeks pregnant and so depressed.
@@veronicav575 Hi Veronica. I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with pregnancy. I wonder if we just have different hormones and responded differently.. I wish we could get Dr Mindy's take on that! Also, how to reset dopamine while pregnant?? I really look up to you, having 6 kiddos + 1 coming. My girl is actually the only thing in life that doesn't cause me stress, so maybe I should have had more!
I wish I had been told this at 25! I’m 45 and honestly I can’t thank you enough for putting this out. I now get to change my future from the direction I was on.
I started intermittent fasting in January this year and was only doing 12 hours. I then met a friend who told me the benefits only start every hour after 12, so then I increased to 14. I'm now doing 16 to 17. On Friday I did 18 hours and realised I could easily do 24. All it is, are the little mental hurdles. My next goal is to do 72 hours, but I'll work up to that I think. My point is, if I can do it then anyone can.
We Rule I have my last meal at about 6 pm , so don't eat anything after that in the evening.Then have a late Breakfast after 10 am, sometimes 11 am. I resist urges to snack. I'm used to it now.
This for me is one of the strongest episodes I've watched. I'm deeply moved because as a woman going through the menopause and one who is overcoming self image, what was shared here is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you ❤
It’s so nice to get this information isn’t it? It almost gives us permission, in a sense, for us to slow down and take care of/ be kinder to ourselves❤️
I’ve literally listened to hundreds of hours of health and wellness podcasts and this is seriously one of the best I’ve ever heard. So much good information. So much more than fasting. Info on metabolic health hormones blood sugar and more. So good!
This lady thinks that you can increase testosterone by 2000% by fasting! There is absolutely zero evidence that this is even close to being true. If she can be so wrong about that then how can you trust anything else she says?
Love love love Mindy Pelz. I’ve been a fan for years. Learnt so much about fasting from her, it’s changed my health. She’s so motivating and encouraging you can’t help but get infected by her enthusiasm. She’s created a great community of fasters.
I just heard that you might bring Dr. Mindy back for a second round. I'm so happy about this. She is an incredible human who touched so many of us with her teaching and YOU played a big role in putting the message out there. I took a screenshot from this interview, framed it and put it on my wall to always remind myself of that day were I finally turned my life around and started the healing journey. I HEALED MYSELF. That's what Dr. Mindy would want me to say because she doesn't want the credit for it. ❤🙏🏻💚🦋
This is by far the most interesting, informative and thought provoking 2 hours of my life on youtube. I could spend weeks picking Dr. Mindy"s mind. I think this interview should be seen by everyone on earth.
I've been fasting for around a year and it's completely turned my life around and made me a new person. For anyone whose seen the movie "Limitless," Fasting is like the natural version of the drug that's depicted in the movie. If the masses knew about the state of fasting, drug companies and gyms would be out of business.
Now. Start while the idea is fresh in your mind. Take PTO a week, I personally drive to city far from my own. Don't touch social media. And just start drinking water. Go as long as your body can handle. I fasted 4 days, I had no energy, I just drank water and slept. At one point my body started puking out all the water I drank but get this, it WAS NOT CLEAR. On day 4 my body was getting rid of toxins in the only way it could. In addition, sweat! I would turn the shower on super hot, let the bathroom transform into a sauna and let the toxins come out through your skin(in a hotel, i would not do this in my own home). When you reach the point where you KNOW you can't keep going, ease the food back in. Just like she said, introduce healthy small portions of food. Then just don't stop this new habit and intermediate fast daily. Do these long fasts when you either find yourself turning to back to the bad habits. I'm not a doctor so this is just my experience but it works for me!
As a nursing student I can't help but feel that the NHS really need to listen to this. So many struggling nurse , really poor health, nightshift , 12.5hr shifts irregular hours , days , nights. It's madness.
I have suffered from eating disorders almost all my adult life. I’ve been through mental health issues, loss of my period for 3 years a few years ago and no doctor was able to help me understand why and currently discovered I have pcos. Our bodies are soooooo complex! I loved this episode, how smoothly she was explaining everything in such a way that made me smile and get some hope! Thanks so much for it ❤
My sister also has Borderline Personality Disorder and it largely drove her eating disorders from her teen years forward (into her 50s). She was misdiagnosed as having bipolar disorder (because psychologists largely have no education on recognizing and diagnosing Cluster B disorders, much less how to treat them), and getting an accurate diagnosis helped her get the combination of therapy she needed to give her the tools to identify and coping strategies to deal with the thinking patterns that largely drove her eating disorder. Wishing you well as you work to move past the thought patterns that drive the disorder.
I want to live in a world full of people like these two! So grateful for the excellent conversation, generous spirits, optimism, and open mindedness. Thank you.❤
My anxiety and depression is gone, chronic pain in joints is gone, acne is gone, chronic fatigue is gone, excess fat gone, food obsessiom gone, counting calories gone, all from time restricted eating 11am to 7pm eating window and cutting out processed food and sugar. I'm 45 female and feel the best I've felt I years, never hungry. Mindy and Jason Fung and Low Carb MD podcast.... all the science is out there, do your own research ❤
Dr. Mindy Pelz you are an absolutely amazing human and communicator. I'm the sole care provider for my wife who has Alzheimer's and despite what I know (or think / though I knew) you've given me a whole new perspective on how best to help her. Thank you!
Dr Mindy has changed my life! She was on a Mel Robbins podcast and I then went looking for her. I can listen to her all day, every day. I have her book Fast Like A Girl and now follow a fasting lifestyle, and will never look back - it works for me. It's all backed by science and I love the way she explains it in a way that everyone can understand. Such a great episode. She's amazing!
You are amazing. I am gynaecologist and I am trying to deliver those messages to patients for a long time, however, so difficult when you only one on battlefield. A lot of respect for your work ! Much needed to share a message worldwide !
I have two books from this woman and the more I watch her more I understand her feelings of passing this information to the world . . why we have to change. She knows the autophagy stage and uses it !! We change our mentality, we heal our body and we get more empathy towards others in this stage of the body. I have a lot respect for her work . She has a hard job to make people understand we have to make this change. I’m trying with my family and it’s not easy make that switch in our brain . thank you so much to be part of it ❤ Sorry , English is not My first language,
This podcast has changed my life, literally. As a 53-year-old woman... I feel so lucky that I got to change how I look after myself before any dis-ease ... and adding to Dr. Amen's podcast... I have such ammunition for my health. Thank you so much Steven Sir ❤
impossible not to comment...! WOW... as a 53 year old woman who had struggled all my adult life with hormone unbalance and weight issues , transitioning to menaupause this was a tremendous gift! Thank you! ... and the ending question just the perfect end... tears in my eyes 🙏🙏🙏💓💞💓
Bless Dr Mindy. I've followed her for years and because of her I prevented a spinal fusion. I do a 72-hr water fast about twice a year. 1st time I was due for a 3rd low back surgery (fusion) and at the 72 hour mark of my water fast the skeletal/muscular stem cells produced to such a degree that the stabbing pain due to my herniation at L5-S1 that I had for over 10 years was 100% gone. No surgery. No injections. Just extended water fasting with sufficient electrolytes (super important). That was a little over 3 years ago. Pain still gone and I just came off 7th 72 hr water fast last week. I'm just shy of 60-years-old.
Great info! I've been working on reducing severe blood clotting issues. I knew the problem and its solution was internal when I first noticed my leg swelling and immediately learned of 3 enzymes and diet changes, so started that asap. It's been 7 months my way vs GP & Vasc Drs & $$$ pills that did nothing good. I still have a slightly swollen ankle, still working on it, but no leg distress. I could improve more, I do like some alcohol, I'm a munch, need to walk the dogs more - no 64yr old Angel here. Now I've watched this - I'd be gobsmacked if a 72 hr fast would reset it all. This Dr Mindy certainly clarified why & how fasting works, couldn't get more 'root cause' than a base cellular 'reset'. HMMMM No clotting, less achy pains, energy, clarity ..... You do this twice a year??? I could do that! Great idea, Thank you!
My husband and I listened to 1:20- the end together and my husband said “ thank you and I loved learning about this and I never knew it learned and thank you for teaching me how incredible this is”.
Just finished watching this in two sittings to really digest everything this brilliant woman was saying. She’s so clear, concise and holds an extreme wealth of knowledge about anything Steven asked her.
Listening to Mindy talk about menopause and women made me sit up, open my ears and shed a tear all at the same time. I had no idea you even existed and now I want to binge consume absolutely everything you have to say about everything. I’ve watched quite a few of your interviews with others and I have to say, I am definitely one of the people you’re talking about that this will benefit! Thank you. I feel I have work to do, things to learn and changes to make that I now believe are in my own control

Fasting is also powerful for manifesting. Fasting is one of several "existential manifesting techniques". Gasping for air, starving for food, procreation and fight or flight are others. The universe is always there to help you survive when you need help the most. But you can request the type of help it supplies. As crazy and bizarre as it seems, holding your breath until you get what you want really does have the potential to manifest your intention. Fasting with an unwavering visualization of a desired state can as well, for instance if you have a health problem and are fasting, the intensity and urgency of your starvation might stir the universe to find a way for you to get food and survive. However, if instead while you are hungry as heck you visualize being 100% healthy while you are feeling intense need for food the universe instead gifts you good health to ensure your survival.
Big fan of Dr.Mindy....so glad you brought her on the show!
The link to Dr. Mindy's book takes you to Yung Pueblo's book, you may want to correct that

My uncle has been fasting for one day a week for over 30 years, he only drinks water and on regular days doesn't mix meat with carbs. He also does oil pulling, and drinks aloe vera mixture he prepares with garlic and lemon. He is 83 and is so healthy, moves furniture, climbs ladders, and stairs, is looking after his tenants, drives to mountains, contribute to charities. He has been my inspiration for many years.
i need to know that mixture!!
I have never heard of oil pulling. What is that ??
@@jeaninecousin8916usually people use coconut oil. Swish around your mouth for ~20 minutes a day and it’s supposed to help pull/kill off the bacteria in your mouth and teeth. I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve heard good things about it from a lot of people.
@@jeaninecousin8916 Swishing coconut oil in your mouth (people often do that instead of brushing their teeth with toothpaste, which is also very damaging to us due to fluoride).
I actually did it for a year or two, then moved away from it by life. I should go back to it.
best comment ever. thank you!
I’m so happy to hear her say that women aren’t meant to handle the stress that men can because it’s true! But if we suggest it, some people look at us like we are crazy. The fact is, men and women are made differently. It’s just nature.
Ye, this is a touchy subject
@@jonathandejesus9494 yet she and others here are encouraging women to fast?
Absolutely, we are completely different… and it’s a beautiful thing ❤
But why then should we have equal rights?😊
Man made stress is made to eliminate women. But men can't handle the stress women handle just for being women in a men's world.
Does anyone else just feel calm and relaxed listening to this guy's interviewing skills? Such a great interviewer.
Nope!
He is so amazing at his interviewing skills, he prepares so well before and it makes all the difference. He is a beautiful soul
His style is very calming and yeah, I could even see him doing Attenborough type work!
I was planning to listen to it for few minutes but 2 hours seemed very short, I will probably listen to it again.
Plus , he looks sooo good!!!
45 yo empty nester here. I danced most of my life and never had to think about my health but this last decade I have not and I am feeling it. Fatigue, binge eating, 60lbs of weight gain, depression, loneliness, isolation, aches and pains etc. I have not found anything else online that resonates. so thank you for that because this gave me hope to make changes for myself
I'm also 45, been fasting 16-24 hours for 8 years now. I'm never sick and I look younger than everybody my age.
IF won't do much to cure depression in my experience, but it has an amazing effect on healing your body. If you can do 24 hour fasting that's great.
But don't forget the electrolytes. If you get cramps take pinch of sea salt and chug some water.
To cure depression I suggest micro dosing on magic mushrooms. A week or two and the depression is gone. Plus it promotes brain plasticity so you will get smarter as well. It actually works, without any side effects. What the doctor gives you don't work or is close to placebo and it has horrible side effects. I've tried them all.
Do these two things and you will feel like 20 again.
It would be interesting to hear about your results, keep me updated. If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer them.
Good luck stranger! :)
EDIT: I almost forgot, if you're not already doing it, you need to take vitamin D3 (5000 IU), Omega3, amino acids and a high quality multi vitamin every day. And I suggest switching to sea salt instead of regular rock salt to get all the minerals you need. Now you are all set!
Facts like my belly is taking a life of its own 😂
This is me to a T!

I love how respectful he is. He never interrupts her. She is the expert.
It’s called real dialouge.
I agree. She's been with other podcast shows so far, this one is better and more coherent because the host is giving the guest more time to give information out to the public.
Unlike when Tom Bileyu interviews people
@@GoddessHabits hahahha yes! I just can't handle him. Too much interruptions 😂
We need to fight back. The fact that everything is bioengineered, & the gwen towers they put in place while we were in a lockdown-it’s crazy! They destroying us with cancerous/high radiation machines.
I’m 57, going through menopause, morbidly obese going through a lot of stress in my personal life and fasting is saving my life!! I have been doing a 36-40 hour test a week and it has really bolstered my confidence that I can do hard things. I’ve been doing IF for the past 6 weeks or so and have lost about 15 lbs, have seen some positive changes in my skin, my sleep, and my whole relationship with food.
A surprising side effect during the 36-40 hour fast is that when I go to bed slightly uncomfortable from not eating for so long, slightly hungry, it has made me more aware of what it feels like for those people who go to sleep hungry because they have no food. It’s made me aware and I’m motivated to help those in need. That’s not something I was expecting. It’s humbling to realize that most of us don’t have any idea what real hunger feels like.
Keep up the good work!
Humbling for sure. Thank you for pointing that out.
You've got this 🎉❤
Well done
You're WONDERFUL, truly❤
This is so true. I went back to my mother's remote village in Papua New Guinea. Every morning, food wasn't just there. They wouldn't even eat fruits readily available first thing in the morning. Instead the activity was fishing- be it on a canoe or from a large bamboo surf rod. It took time. So from a natural wake up at about 5.15am - 10-20 mins to sunrise - we wouldnt eat until about 9am. You eat if you want to eat, and eat until satiated. Then rest or do things in the village, until we need to fish again or go to the gardens which weren't in the village. Even for water you'd have to walk to retrieve it from an underground cave. After 4 days of my 14 day trip, my body had adjusted, no pain, no brain fog. It was incredible.
Where in PNG? I lived in Goroka for 4 years!
@@leefischer1313 Buka Island
Life as it was meant to be.
@@raebean6018 why didn’t you stay?
I also grew up in the islands. Living was first and food came from living. Even as a young child there weren’t mealtimes. I too am going back to how I was raised…
8:00 We use energy when we eat (sugar-burning system that produces glucose), and we use energy when we don't eat (fat-burning system that produces ketone). Brain needs 50% ketone that enhances it.
9:40 It takes at least:
- 8 hrs of fasting to switch in that metabolic state,
- 12 hrs to bring mental clarity and turns off the hunger hormone,
- 15 hrs to growth hormone to go up - this keeps us young, helps burn fat, increase testosterone by 13%, reduce inflammation,
- 17 hrs to recover injury, remove bad cells, cells repair themselves, prevent bacteria passage, hypothalamus repair themselves and helps reduce PCOS - autophagy,
- 36 hrs to boost belly fat burn
12:13 Breakfast is the most important meal of in a day. Sugar intake has great effect to body the rest of the day.
18:50 Take protein after the fasting to increase muscle growth
20:00 1st type (14/10) - 14hrs without food, 10 hours with food
21:20 2nd type (Autophagy) - 17 hrs without food
36:55 3rd (gut) - 24 hrs without food (stem cells reboot themselves)
38:30 4th (fat-burner fast) - belly-fat burner, removing unnecessary body weight to survive.
39:50 5th (dopamine) - produce more dopamine and satisfies our hunger with we eat food.
49:15 - coffee with sugar breaks fasting
1:00:00 - stress, great effects to health. In spain, 3d work-leave at start of period to reduce stress (should be 3d before).
1:08:00 - 15min for men to refill and increase testosterone. Women are more outgoing prior ovulation. Day 2 to Day 12 of cycle to talk best with women. Day 12 to Day 15 - libido is highest.
1:20:00 - menopause at 40-45, understand women
1:39:00 - women best to take magnesium, while men best to take zinc for testosterone; both need vitamin D
1:40:00 - detox pathways (armpit/ pubic areas)
1:53:20 - with extra cardio, calories go up, cortisol level goes up, progesterone (keeps estrogen in check) goes down, estrogen goes up because not in check, estrogen can be stored as fat.
Nice notes. Just one clarification: she did not say breakfast is the most important meal. No evidence at all.
Thank you
thank you so much for the timestamps!
Thank you
Nice notes
This is literally the best podcast I've ever experienced.
1) your guest is awesome and informative
2) you are genuine in your curiosity
3)You question and ask for the evidence
4) all of this offers genuine value and learning potential
What she talks about sounds too good to be true. I wonder if it actually is the case here.
I totally agree
I couldn’t agree more.
@@Gromic2ktry it, get blood panels before and after
@@Here_Today_ No thanks. I´m done with this channel and the people selling theirs snake oils
The whole episode is phenomenal, but I have to say... he is SO good at this work because he actually LISTENS to engage. So many podcasters spend more time thinking about the next thing THEY want to say, like they'd rather hear themselves than their guest.
He's just so thoughtful and processes everything his guests bring. It's a breath of fresh air.
Absolutely. I am amazed that this channel isn’t much more well known.
Agreed! I love his interviews not just because of the jewels the guests always drop, but the way HE conducts an interview and LISTENS intently, while processing and engaging in what was actually said. He does all this while still controlling the interview’s flow and timing. I adore men with this ability- it’s so important & balancing, especially from the perspective of this chatty woman! 😅
That's because this guy is a beta loser and fallen women adore weak men.
He's like a calm Tom Bilyeu lol
Uuuuuuu
I am so ashamed to write this, but as a 30 year old woman from Eastern European country this is the first time I was able to hear and fully learn about women's menstrual cycle. Especially menopause. Even though 70% of my family is all women we never talked about it, believe it or not - my mom never told me about a period. Learned from the internet. So glad that nowadays all this information is so accessible and we are tearing down all the "shame" (of what?). Love this podcast and this episode so much! Thank you Steven and Dr. Pelz, already on amazon searching for her books to further down my education :)
You are not alone. And too often we are unaware of our hereditary health concerns, just because they were never spoken of. Communication is so important.
❤
Get Dr.Peltz book, Fast Like A Girl!!!
I hate that but glad you found this video. I was the same way. Im 40 and I learned from the tampon box and after we had tried to have kids for years without luck. Now I know it’s best to teach my daughter that she can talk to me about anything. She’s only 4 though.
I’m glad that you has the internet. I had books,tg. Not the one and only book she ever told me I should read. It was all about flowers. I was twenty before I realized what it was symbolic of.😂
Hi Anna Maria my name is Agnes Teresa Maria nad my daughters name Anna that's why it took my attention to read your message. I am also from Eastern Europe. I ah e learned about my period in the most horrific way when I was a teen, got up at night to pee and screamed bloody murder in the middle of night , I thought I'm dying that's it's end of me. My Grandparents , my aunt with baby and uncle , my Mom bursted into the bathroom and all started to laugh. I was told I am a woman now. That's how my womanhood issues started, shame. I educated my children the minute their puberty started about period and not to mention I project my menstruation fear on them. It was not celebrating being a woman it was a curse. My whole life to the point my uterus was removed. That's how your mind works!!!! My children already knew about menstruation, sex from internet and school. There is a lock of proper education I think and too much tabu and politics and we women suffer! Men- o- pause ? I had no idea what it is until I and my baby and my body went into menopause at age 33!!!! I am 51 and still going!! Because there is pre, menopause, and post. Fasting, vegan diet, hydration, yoga helped me so much with symptoms. The sooner you start changing your diet and cutting crap food, coke, Pepsi, chips , and stresssssssssssss eliminate as much as you could. And I eat when I'm hungry , sometimes I don't eat at all. And I'm ok. And do I over eat? I can't.
I had my 3rd kid at 40. My ex walked out 5 months later. So I spent my 40s raising an infant, 4 & 6 year old alone! After listening to her, I'm a freaking goddess! 😂😂😂😂 ❤

She changed my life, Ive followed her advice and have been on one meal a day now for 3 months and I have lost 24 pounds and I am beginning to get myself back and my self esteem • She is an angel and this is the most profound UA-cam video I have ever watched • THANK YOU Dr Mindy Pelz
Thank you for sharing
Well done, congratulations. I also recommend Dr Sten Ekberg and Eric Berg MD. Both have huge chanels on you tube and tons of informations on Keto and fasting. Also very articulate and well spoken
I'm trying to loose weight and I fast for 18 hours .. weight not moving what do you have for your one meal I'd like to try it ...I lost ten kilo then just stopped 😢xx
@@carolinerobertson2091Try to eat more protein first, then green vegetables and fiber. For example, some fish or chicken with a green salad with only lime and salt. Also, you can eat black beans or kidney red beans for your fiber portion. You can use another fiber resource you like; remember, they are an excellent source of carbohydrates, too. Most importantly, remove sugar from your drinks and food and change white flour products. I lost 14 lbs in one month and then 6 lbs in the second month. I started fasting on 18/6, and now I have changed to 20/4. It isn't easy, but I never felt so well.
Same. Plateaued after 15 pounds.
Patience is a virtue; don't give up.
This Ramadan I am strength training and breaking my fast with lots of protein. I have been losing weight and I feeling stronger than ever before, it all makes so much sense after watching this. Thank you !
Can you share what you are eating
I have listened to a few Dr. Mindy’s interviews before, but this genuinely is the best one. Huge respect to Steven for not being afraid to look naive or silly and ask very simple, yet fundamental questions. Those questions made entire conversations much much richer. I am in awe of his interviewing skills!
He’s so transparent, it sadly, makes him unique in todays environment, but such a pleasure to watch him.
i think he's naturally dense
I think he's naturally curious. Naturally dense people don't build agencies from 0 to £300m in 7 years.
@@tonygallivan6748 indeed. He is truly open-minded.
Every man and woman should know each others physiology there's no reason not to know our own body's and our partners.
My mom decided not to do chemo for her diagnosed breast cancer. She did fasting for over 72hours and she has been cancer free for 3years now. She continues to do fasting cycles. It is once of the most amazing underrated healing methods.

May I know more about 72 hours fasting your mom did. Was it with just water or waterless or something else? Please share the knowledge as it would benefit me immensely!
We are the only mammal that doesn't de worm themselves. Look into this for a cure for cancer. The Joe Tippens story!
How many cycles of 72 hr fasting did she do?
Curious about the cycle question posed
As a 52 yr old woman, this is THE MOST informative, educational, motivational, enlightened podcast I've ever listened to. Thank you 🙏🏻
Agreed!😊
Yes! Agreed. 53 and navigating the roller coaster with as much grace as possible.
I love you both so much...meaning I love your seeking mind. Thank you so much! Great talk! ❤ 👍🙏
as a 19 i think the same
😂 😂 Meaning you have not listened to a lot, and it shows!
Wow….. I can honestly say that as a 61 year old woman, now retired healthcare practitioner, mother and wife, who has always put everyone first, listening to the last question of this podcast, has made me finally decide that I actually need to think about me. I feel quite emotional just listening to the honest and refreshing conversation that you guys had. I have to admit that this will definitely change my way of thinking and my habit’s. I started fasting a week ago (16/8), I understand so much more now and know what I’m doing wrong! So have some things to change today. I hope the impetus I feel after listening to this will not diminish too quickly. Thank you to both of you.
Thank you for adding emphasis to this. I'm glad I saw your comment before moving on to something else.qq I have just found this video and am in the same boat as you were. I hope you have kept it up or will decide to start again.. i am convinced that when we love ourselves we contribute more and better, but it's time for me to adjust my behavior accordingly! Thanks , again!❤
Saw this podcast in June 2023, bought her book, fasted as recommended around my cycle: the weight dropped so fast! All I had to do is maintain it with good nutrition and increased steps... 3 months later dropped 15lbs, 6 months later weight is finally stable. I've been struggling for 2 years to lose my post baby weight. Thanks so much for this podcast 🎉
What book?
@aviaannette it's called Fast like a Girl
Did it affect your cycle or hormons?
Do you have to follow a diet like keto, or can you eat what you want and just fast properly?
@frugalmomofmany I followed a diet with whole foods vs keto. I prioritized protein and made sure to have good sources of fiber (rice, potatoes, quinoa ...) but also lots of fruits and veggies. Also, I think the number one thing that helped me stop snacking is meal prepping. Prep BF, lunch and dinner and even snack daily to help manage cravings. Hope this helps
Aimed for a 36h fast thinking I could not make it past 24h, I ended up reaching 48h.
I was amazed at how quickly my body adapted. If you are thinking about it, let this be your sign 🙌
I felt super sharp at work and light, more energised overall. Totally worth it!
I just read her book and have ‘em been doing the fasting cycles and I have dropped 20pounds so far. And it’s easy, I’m never going back.
@@lindarose907 Hey Linda! That is amazing. What fasting cycles do you mean? 24h once a week and 10h window the rest of the days?
Amino acids are found in wide variety of food. Saying amino acids are found in “meat” is misleading. Where does the “meat” get the amino acids. We eat plant eaters. So They get there amino acids from the plants they eat.
Yep, the 1st 24 to 36 hours is the hardest, but from day 3 you can go for as long as you want.
Your body will let you know when it needs food again, not from hunger pangs, but from your body feeling you from the core.
I felt like my bones were hungry :)
How did you do this??? I cannot get there.
My 65-year-old mom started intermitting fasting last year and lost 20kg in the first 12 months. Before that, she was overweight for years (decades). She is looking and feeling younger than she was 5 years ago. But the most important thing of all the benefits she's seen is probably self-confidence because she proved to herself that she can do something so significant. I'm so Proud of her. Hopefully, her story can inspire others to try it out and see if it works for them. It's fascinating to see her grow older in age, but getting younger with her physique.
Seen same kind of changes with a friend of ours - it works!
❤❤❤
That's wonderful!!
Thanks for your comment…definitely inspired by the real stories.
Thank you! As a 62 year old woman, that is encouraging to hear.
Whenever I do my 36 hour fast I come back here for motivation and education. Fasting becomes easier if you see it as a healing tool for your body.
Lost belly fat?
What a great conversation! My husband learned to recognize my mood swings.. instead of fighting he learned how to make me laugh. This changed our marriage.
Bull shit
My husband does the same! ❤️
That’s sweet!
Same here,my husband of 38 years just knows how to give me the the attention I crave❤❤❤
Does your husband have any tips?
I’m 67 now and honestly when I look back at that time of perimenopause I feel like I went thru the war for 15-17 years. The sweats, hair loss, loss of libido, the belly fat, brain fog and terrible depression. I had no help, I didn’t do anything for myself, any estrogen offered gave me terrible cramps. I’m making it a point now to learn and treat myself better.
How old were you when you went through perimenopause?
I started perimenopause at 43 and now at 54 still going through symptoms. Use black cohosh for hot flashes. I am on carnivore diet and I do intermittent fasting and I have noticed hot flashes are less frequent. Frankly, menopause royally sucks and the belly bloat and brain fog are maddening. I won't do hormone replacement because I don't want to increase risk of breast cancer. I do feel that getting rid of sugar, refined sugars,carbs, and seeded oils (canola, cottonseed etc.), have really helped with symptoms.
@xylay3540my situation is a little different I was dropped into instant menopause at 40 after a total hysterectomy to remove endometriosis. Once in my 5 year journey I went off the meds for a week. It was then I absolutely marveled that any woman could/ would go thru this without HRT 🤯
I was always going to take hrt as being in full blown MP at just 40 is very undesirable. I know it may sound lame but I was tremendously concerned with accelerated aging. Not just on my face but in my body, brain fog, aching joints, weight gain… I have certainly experienced these but not on the level of my 2 friends who cannot take HRT bc their endo was unable to be completely removed. My point of writing this is to say please do not needlessly suffer. Research & advances have been made since our mothers took hrt. Should you find yourself losing your hair, sex drive, dry skin, night sweats, excessive anger & mood swings to name a few- give hrt a try for a couple of months. For me that little blue pill is so vital to my well being that the benefits far outweigh the potential consequences.
@Ann Marie Knapp I started carnivore over a month ago and I'm in perimenopause. Omg my energy...libido...depression...hunger... all gone. ❤
Lauren - my hair is falling out, did yours return or stop (I'd settle for just stopping with the hair loss), but I am really worried about it :/

How does your fasting work? It is 13 days ago. You must have overcome your sugaraddiction now. Feeling better?
Take a nature walk. Walk in a place that you like. Do small things like 5 planks or modified planks in morning and evening. Build up over time.
Don't do fad diets .eat real foods, but give your self grace on the days you have the cake..and DON'T eat it and assign negative thoughts to it. Enjoy it.
Notice all the flavors in processed foods and I bet you can find a flavor in there that you don't like. Processed foods abuse our dopamine receptors 😂 and we loose.
Write down what you want and what the changes would need to be and start small.

I bought the book... This, what this incredible woman is saying, is gold dust! I will take my fasting to a new level because of her. People, humans, need to stop thinking of food all the damn time, we are not designed for this. 4 meals a day, 6 meals a day, snacks. We need to stop doing what the food industry is asking us to do. Eat ourselves to death...

I started to cry when she began to talk about menopause and women being unable to hold onto information like we used to. I have said this in my life to my husband, my siblings, my mentor at work and my boss. I mostly get the side eye or the empathetic nod like they are TRYING to understand but just don’t. To have this confirmed as an actual symptom of a loss of estrogen brings me such relief. Now I KNOW that I’m not crazy and I’m not making this stuff up. And what she said about the ability to handle stress now is definitely on point. I’m in my mind 50’s and have been in menopause for a full year…takes at least 3yrs of no cycle before they consider you in full menopause. It has been one HECK of a ride.

@@lordandrew3375Water fasting means that only water digested. It is advisable to take some electrolytes with that also, one option being the salt types mentioned. Those have the minerals your body needs, especially important if you are losing them by swetting.
There are several parts of this that brought me to tears. My mother passed away from an accidental overdose at 48 years old. Two years prior she had a some sort of switch and she completely changed from the person I knew my whole life. The explanation of women during menopause has given me a new level of understanding to what may have been going on for her in the last few years of her life.
I’ve also struggled with my weight my entire life. I feel very defeated with my appearance most days and it prevents me from having any motivation to keep going when it comes to health. Knowing that my body isn’t working against me but rather working for me to survive and place fat outside rather than internally has just shifted the way I think of my body and myself.
Thank you so much for spreading this information. I truly feel like I will walk away with lifestyle changes after this video.

Although the discussion about the menstrual cycle and mood is interesting, what about cases of women having no observable period (e.g., pregnant) on which to base "day one" of a cycle and how to relate with us and optimize our mental health, brain power, and creativity?
@@OneWorldSinger Or if you've had your uterus taken out, but not your ovaries, so also no observable period. I've had three children, and I'm done.

ps do a parasite cleanse for a possible cause of over eating/weight gain. see yt ch Candida eric bakker naturopath, Dr Berg, Dr Group, Dr Axe, Dr Hilda Clark, Road to perfect health brenda watson = good info. Vets know that if an animal is over eating they have parasites...back 100 years ago citizens use to do parasite cleanses several times a year (many countries today still do this health protocal)...big phrama companies came into play and dont want healthy people they want sick people who will take Rx drugs for life to stop symptoms but, not cure.
Dr Group states in his vid that he believes 90% of USA citizens have parasites....Dr Hilda Clark stated that all "disease is caused by parasites". Herbs from your local health food store = parasite cleanse with a good diet like keto and/or Carnivore diet heal the gut.
This woman is the most amazing. She gave this information away for free. This is the best advice and interview I've ever seen.

Fasting has saved my life quite literally and Dr Mindy has been the key influencer. I've paid out so much money on diets but Dr Mindy'advice helped me not only save money but I've lost 2stone in weight in just 8 weeks without masses of physical activity. At 70 years old I have more energy, my joints don't ache like before, and I don't have an addiction to sugar any longer and I look so much better! I can't thank her enough!
I’m 70 with acid reflux. Eating anything 4 times a day whether it’s toast or just something? My acids are in check. How do you fast?
@@74the_magpie hello, just watch the video's to see how you do it. The other emotional 'how' is getting to a point when you are so sick of eating Gaviscon like sweets and the weight affecting all that you do, like it was for me. I just reached a point when I said "No more"! I then started the next day cutting out all sugars and refined foods. I don't regret a day since and can allow a biscuit or a piece of cake into my daily plan, occasionally. It's no longer a 'need to have' sugar or carbs! Hope that helps.
I listen to podcasts all the time and I have never come across a more connecting one. Each and every question was being asked from such a genuine place of curiosity and each answer was wrapped in kindness and deep concern for the humankind. It is heartwarming to see that such important and life changing facts were shared here with so much grace, passion and vulnerability. Thank you Steven and Dr. Mindy. This is a heart touching and a life changing podcast.
Autophagy...yes it is true
I agree
Best thing that EVER happened to me was menopause! Now I have my life back!
I'm from Zambia, Southern Africa, I'm deeply moved with this episode, I wish more people could have access to this information. It's so educative and life changing! Thank you so much!
This episode changed my life. I'm watching it for the second time because I can't get enough of the insights. I started intermitted fasting 7:17 and I've never felt so great. I feel light, sharp, awake and active. I've coupled my fasting with one hour evening walks after my last meal, and I've dropped some good weight.
#advocateforfasting
Wow! Thank you for letting us know, really happy you resonated with this episode. Team DOAC 🙏
Probably the fasting not for everybody. I am eating one meal a day almost a year now. My waight is the same, im overwaight, i got diabetes 2,thyrox problems, high bloodpressure... And all the same. No effect what so ever. Exept, when im not eating, im more consetrated and energy level is high.
Y’all don’t have any contacts with Muslim people? We’ve been doing this since 1440 years, and we’ve been shat on as long for doing it lol. 1 month a year then 2 days a week , it changes everything mentally you become so sharp and way more disciplined, fasting is the door towards stoicism
You need to vary your fasts ans not do the same one over and over
@@Those.who.stay.silent.consent Philosophers in Ancient times fasted, The Magians of Persia influenced those Philosophers, Salman one of those Magians created Islam as a means to squash a civil war and it became something much more than expected look into Jason Reza Jorjani interviews.
I just turned 80 and wish I could have gotten this information in my teens. Better late than never. I am so grateful to learn now. Many thanks
My sentiments exactly, this is reliable information which should’ve been taught to us in health class. Back in the ‘70’s the pyramid was a falsity presented to us purely for profits of food manufacturers. Finally the truth came out. It’s beneficial to learn something new each day. Best to you Renee with great respect🙏🏽
Bless yah man 🎉
I wish you many more years, and fantastic life quality in them!
I hope I will be as curious and intersted in my 80ies as you are ❤
My great grandmother was 97 years old and she cook roti and do all the things on her own. She fasted on Monday, Tuesday Thursday . And months of Shravaan due to Hindu tradition. I think yogis in olden days used to do the same meditation and fasting for long duration for enlightenment!
My grand mom never fasted and lived until 102 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️you never know
I'm watching this podcast 36 hours fasted hoping to make it to 72 hours. I love fasting, it makes all the aches and pains go away.
you are taking only water?
no you can drink 0 calorie drinks like tea and coffe@@jennielampa6630
So you’re only taking water but how do you do this fasting. If i have my breakfast at 11am i’ll have to wait for 36hours to eat next meal? This way i’ll have no enough proten, carbs, fat any nutrients going in my body 😯😯
@alinashahid3798 I attempted today, but failed miserably. I hate fasting but have insulin and cortisol resistance, so I NEED to somehow fast for 36 hrs to jump-start the weight loss.... 😞
I'm 12 hours in now wish me luck 🤞🤞
Dr. Mindy changed my life. I started intermittent fasting 6 months ago after I watched this podcast. I have dropped 18 pounds and have never felt or looked better. I just started her book and I am learning even more. Thank you for this podcast!

Hi so do you have water only during the fasting?
Which book?
Fast Like a Girl Dr. Mindy Pelz
Her book is calked Fast Like A Girl
This lady is absolutely spot on. I suffered sepsis last year and it took me a long time to recover physically and for many months I still felt weak and shakey. I was very overweight (110kg) and had been for most of my adult life. Back in November I read a brief article on intermittent fasting and thought sod it, give it a go! I'm now 87 kg so still have a way to go but feel so much better in myself. I have breakfast and lunch no later than 1pm and then nothing but water after that. The only thing I've cut out of my diet is processed foods, I make my own bread and biscuits. I eat cheese, real butter red meat and pretty much everything else as long as it's home made. I can now exercise which I wasn't able to face before. Anyone reading this who's having doubts, just give yourself a month and stick to it strictly. If it works out for you and you start seeing the weight go down it becomes a lot less difficult, you'll find yourself doing it gladly. You'll soon realise that what you thought was hunger is actually just cravings but you'll feel so proud in yourself with each day that you stuck to it :)
Excellent summary, thanks:)
Like your determination!
I feel very happy for your journey back to life and hearing your recommendations 🙏
Also, bear in mind that cravings/ hunger are often symptoms of dehydration, easily remedied without food.
I think for those suffering an eating disorder this is a dangerous statement. Also you state you cut out all processed food that in itself without the fasting would have effected your health and weight.
Been doing OMAD (one meal a day) since May (2024) and I've gone from 310 lbs to 240 lbs. I am no longer on blood pressure medication or colesterol medication. Six months. That's all it took.
My brain is at a loss for how to describe the impactfulness of this interview. There are simply no words. Only a feeling that is indescribable. Thank you both 🙏🏾
Fr i cant believe the wealth of knowledge we have nowadays so good
I can't get enough of this woman. Please bring her back and do more episodes with her. You are both so very informative and inspirational, you both make such a good team.
What a great episode! As a muslim woman. She just explained the science behind Islam’s fasting and recommended eating habits and lifestyle. May Allah bless her 🙏
45:00 I had a garden injury during Covid and struggled to get an appointment. It affected my groin area and also found I was limping from time-to-time when my leg would give out from under me. I thought perhaps it was a hairline fracture. The pain came on when I was double-digging and hit a huge rock with my spade. The pain lasted weeks. I tried everything in my holistic toolbox and the pain continued. Armed with the knowledge of cell repair I then decided to do a water fast, and after that, the pain was gone, never to return again.
Did you know that when you fall ill and find that you're not feeling hungry, it's actually your body's clever way of starting to mend itself? Here's how it works in simple terms.
Normally, your body uses a lot of energy to digest food. When you're sick, your body decides to use that energy for healing instead of digestion. So, it reduces your appetite to shift the focus.
If you have an infection, eating less can sometimes help your body fight it off better. Certain germs thrive on the sugar and iron in our food, so by eating less, you're cutting off their supply.
Think of it like closing a busy road to fix it properly. When you're not eating much, your body gets a chance to repair itself without the extra work of digesting food as your body refocuses' its energy for repair. What a wonderful healing machine we have!
Thanks!
Indeed, and everyone around me always kept pushing, you have to eat to gain strength. And always it would come out the same way as it came in. Sadly I can also not hold water down when sick. Day 2 and 3 are the worst, after that I can begin to drink more try some chicken Bouillon and start to get better. Only thing I need is a bucket, water and 3 days sleep. And now I know why. It's just my body saying no to food
As my grandmother always said, “starve a cold.” Old adage for a reason!
Yes, I can think of many instances like this. You are on to something!
And lots of sleep! This is, also, when our bodies heal. Thank you for sharing. Such great knowledge!❤
This episode made me cry. I have never felt more understood in my entire life. Everything said about cycles resonates so much with me, I feel like my personality changes so much during the course of a cycle and my strength during the last week is so low (both emotionally and physically). I’m 28 and never heard how I feel so accurately described! 🎉
Octavia, just change your diet drastically 10 days before period eat like a Japanese lady: miso soup, green tea, fish, sea food - scallops, octopus, sea cucumber ect. and lots of green leafy vegetables in a bone broth and you'll see stable mood, happy disposition, great digestion with no bloating, unremarkable periods, and no more cramp. The worst you can do is to keep eating wheat, corn, soy and other processed grains which are also main feed for commercial livestock - highly proinflammatory!
I absolutely love Dr. Mindy!! She was so spot on about everything!! I am so grateful 🙏 I came across her on UA-cam!! It's been absolutely life changing. If every doctor had her passion to help & educate we could be in such a great place!! So thankful for her!! 💯 🙏❤️
I’m 64. This valuable information about a women’s cycle and fasting wasn’t around in my day. Come to think of it, my mom still hasn’t had “that talk” with me. LOL.
What's sad is women get diagnosed as bi-polar and get put on pharmaceuticals which are poison all due to natural hormones they don't understand.
@@janethagen3385I'm right there with you sister! Talk about not having the talk; My Mom (now 95) said her Mom had no talk with her; rather she handed her a cloth and closed the door. My Mom says she didn't know whether to tie that cloth around her neck, or wad it up and hope for
the best! This is great info.
as a son husband and father of a little princess I've learned so much about women's cycles in watching this podcast interview which I thought was primarily about intermittent fasting interview with dr. mindy platz who's an author and expert on the subject but specifically on how it relates to women in her book fast like a girl this podcast that's made me more aware and realize I need to learn more to be able to support the women in my life 🙏🏽😘👩🏻🤦🏽♂️👧🏻🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰🙏🏽👍🏽 sorry I wrote this partially to share it on social media and others in my life if my comments are confusing 🙏🏽😘👩🏻👶🏻👧🏻🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰🙏🏽👍🏽
As a 53 year old athlete who had trained his entire life , had the benifits of coaches and all the science , I am so impressed by this podcast , Its even at a higher level than I ever was instructed , but even more digestible , as a man I am also somewhat embarrassed I had no clue related to all hormones and cycles related to women . This podcast gets 11/10
Don't worry. I know more than all but one of my doctors about hormones. I know more about the various biomes in a human body than any of them. I hardly know anything. I'm sure you know more than yours, too. It's simply not in their training, neither do most of them pursue the knowledge down the line.
😂😂😂 women don't know anything either until it hits us.
Only period then after it is a bomb
Question: She said to be cautious of what we smell and what we put on our skin. So no more cologne and lotion?

I did a 40hr fast after watching this, surprisingly easy and I feel great. I’m going to be doing this regularly.
Nice, I always wanted to dry fast and after watching a couple of her vids on it I did one last week
Well done. Did you do a water fast or a dry fast? Thank you in advance.
Ending day 3 on 18-21 hrs of (wet) fasting. I already have less pain in my joints, and I feel great. Weight is down even if only 0.8 lbs but sleep increased (possibly because being sick), and about an inch off my waist, hip, and things. Down time is great.
Even easier when I don't eat carbs, since I don't feel hungry.

"The purpose of living a fulfilled-life is touching humans you'll never actually meet." (Dr Mindy Pelz) Wow... This is definitely one of my favorite episodes. Many thanks to both of you!!!
I am in perimenopause and starting intermittent fasting when my mothers memory went and dementia took hold. I was fasting all wrong (for a girl) and although i was seeing some benefits, I wasn’t feeling that much better. Once I found Mindys You tube channel, that all changed. I am about to complete my 2nd round on the 30 day reset fast and its a game changer. I was afraid I’d put back the weight suddenly eating more after months of 20 hour fasts. The opposite happened. My sleep improved, my mood improved. The night sweats have reduced in severity. I dont weigh myself but i have lost belly fat, which has been next to near impossible for me in the past. It’s not hard to do, and I am razor sharp and focused while I’m fasting. The hunger is just a wave that leaves within a few minutes. I recommend getting to know your hormones and following Mindys channel. And if called, get her book, but really she offers so much on line that you could do with the videos only if you’re strapped for cash like many of us are these days.
Thanks for the info I have been on the verge of trying but scared to do it wrong but now I shall follow and get the book
Love this comment thank you!
Thank you for sharing this, it has helpedv❤
What were you doing wrong before and what did you change into that gave you good results?

You are so right, I had to throw everything, I was surrounded by poison.
I can not fully express my gratitude for hearing an explanation of female hormones and how they affect our lives! This is invaluable information!!
I have done fasting research about 2 years. Read a lot of books about this. Testing my body all the time. This woman is brilliant. One of the best podcast about fasting in all YT. In this moment I bought book of Dr. Mindy Pelz about fasting and hormones. It will be great to have it.
Oh I love this. I'm a cancer patient, and I've been told the importance of fasting, but for so long I have resisted it. Too scared my body can't handle it. This episode has given me so much hope, and a new direction. Thank you so much for this! Amazing conversation, great topics, so much info and insight to be gained from this entire interview.
Cheers to your complete remission! Happy healing to you Love.
@@LLB-LBB thank you so much. Blessings to you.
I found that fasting during chemo made a huge improvement in diminishing symptoms and improving effectiveness. Read Dr. Longo's work on this.
Your body can totally handle it. Let it do what God designed it to do. Just remember to take either Himalayan or Celtic sea salt (1t) once a day works for me. 2t may be needed. If water fasting beyond 48hours advisable to consult a physician. Let her know your goal(s), as there can be many that water fasting addresses. Then as you work your way to the 72 hour mark just smile if you get hunger pains. They will subside and you will feel your body going into autophagy. Your clarity of mind and the positive effects of muscle building routine will surprise you. I'm a former fitness and fashion model (NYC and Europe for Gorgio Armani decades ago) and feel amazing after my 7th 72-hour water fast last week. I'm about to turn 60.

I watched this one week ago, and started intermittent fasting, and as of yesterday I’ve lost 6 pounds! Thank you so much for this video! It is saving me. I switched my oils nearly 10 years ago to ONLY coconut, avocado, and evoo. I also haven’t been consuming any processed carbs. Thanks for giving Dr. Pelz this platform. I follow her now too. This is also helping with the MS diagnosis.🧡🧡🧡❤️❤️🧡🧡
Keep going! It’s the best things I’ve ever done.
Unless your eating natural coconut or coconut oil then you're making a mistake as coconut oil has twice as much saturated fats as other oils, The study was done on MCT oil which coconuts have components of but the studies weren't don't on coconuts. Look it up. Sorry for the intrusion i just couldn't not just say something.
What is your blood results like? Or you just think it's good for you?
You need that pure coconut oil from Jamaica. It's the best natural oil and doesn't at all burn your food.
I am in my sixties. my period stopped at around 50. Fortunately I never had any of the typical menopausal symptoms. Always was very aware of my cycle and what it signified. Never took hormones, fully understood and worked with my natural cycle and had 2 children. NEVERTHELESS, this is the most eye opening talk about the beauty of a woman's cycle. Listening to you opened a window of appreciation I never felt before. Wish I had come across such talk some 40 years ago. Wonderful
I’m relating to you, and how!
Very much similarities & thank you sharing yourself with so many females 🌹
Wow, that's very positive to hear your experience. And good advice in there too, I.e..wishing you heard it sooner!!!

This is my third time watching this whole interview because it is packed with information which has led me to a healthier lifestyle. I am 71, have lost 30lbs thru intermittent fasting and my skin glows. I look 29 years younger than when I retired. If I get off track and eat unhealthy or don’t fast and start to gain weight, I watch the videos again. It has been life changing and I love this interview. Great job!!
Just finished her book. Just life changing!! Did a 72 hour fast last week and it was amazing! Dropped 7 pounds! Now I am doing weekly fasting! I love how simple this is!

This podcast is brimming with information to the point it almost feels illegal to watch. These life-changing findings motivate me to immediately integrate them into my daily life. The way that dr.Mindy was able to compress all those fruits of research and stats in order to be absorbed easily by regular audience is nothing less than amazing. Props to Steven for being engaging and always doing his homework to understand each guest's work.
My thoughts exactly, I'm so glad I came across this ❤
I'm sure the pharmaceutical companies hates this.
what lol
I have no idea what you guys are talking about. This is all useless information. You guys aren’t going to change ANYTHING! You got a good feeling while watching this. That’s all. You’ll forget about it in a day.
Dopamine is the chemical of MORE, it’s not the chemical of enough. This whole podcast is life changing . I’ve been researching things forever, and have done fasts in the past, but, its been years. but, this podcast inspired me to fast immediately. I’m now on day 4 of fasting after watching this. So compelling & inspiring! Thank you!
you are awesome in every way! ( and BRAND NEW after fasting 5 days!!!)

This was a fantastic show. Most educational all round for our body. I do not think somebody will stay the same after listening to it.
@@E.Ceruleanyep, all religions have a form or another of fasting
Because a lot of them are from the same Source, but they have been tampered by humans except the correct one (the Quran has been preserved unlike the other scriptures). Which is why we muslims believe in all the prophets Allah sent like Moses, Jesus, Noah, Muhammad etc and the book He revealed. So we see many similarities (&differences of course because we only worship One God without any partner, no human/statue/multiple gods/sun/moon etc) @@AncaBilbie

Was in a delta state of sleep listening to this delightful conversation. Will listen again tonight. Writing down now when to begin my 5 day fast.

One more comment - I never ever felt better than the 9 months I was pregnant (at age 44). I woke up at 6am, bright, happy, energetic, very zen.. worked out like crazy.. and this is in contrast to being my normal (autistic) self - low energy, mildly frustrated all the time, extremely low testosterone, sore joints, back pain.. all that melted away when I was pregnant. Now at age 55, I'm fasting for the first time and it's FINALLY helped to bring me back to that balance I felt when I was pregnant. I know, weird! Thanks Dr Mindy!
Was it your first pregnancy?
Interesting perspective. I’m also autistic- I’ve been pregnant 9 times (ending in 6 live births) from age 25 to now (age 36). Horrible morning sickness and back/hip pain. Mood wise, I’ve been stable. Except this one. I’m 9 weeks pregnant and so depressed.
@@veronicav575 Hi Veronica. I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with pregnancy. I wonder if we just have different hormones and responded differently.. I wish we could get Dr Mindy's take on that! Also, how to reset dopamine while pregnant?? I really look up to you, having 6 kiddos + 1 coming. My girl is actually the only thing in life that doesn't cause me stress, so maybe I should have had more!
I know exactly what you mean! 💯 never felt better than my pregnancy. I think about it often. Haven’t reached that point of the video yet…
@@millename First and only.
I wish I had been told this at 25! I’m 45 and honestly I can’t thank you enough for putting this out. I now get to change my future from the direction I was on.
I started intermittent fasting in January this year and was only doing 12 hours. I then met a friend who told me the benefits only start every hour after 12, so then I increased to 14. I'm now doing 16 to 17. On Friday I did 18 hours and realised I could easily do 24. All it is, are the little mental hurdles. My next goal is to do 72 hours, but I'll work up to that I think.
My point is, if I can do it then anyone can.

I’ve literally listened to hundreds of hours of health and wellness podcasts and this is seriously one of the best I’ve ever heard. So much good information. So much more than fasting. Info on metabolic health hormones blood sugar and more. So good!
This lady thinks that you can increase testosterone by 2000% by fasting! There is absolutely zero evidence that this is even close to being true. If she can be so wrong about that then how can you trust anything else she says?
I'm so amazed and satisfied with the information is great.😅
Love love love Mindy Pelz. I’ve been a fan for years. Learnt so much about fasting from her, it’s changed my health. She’s so motivating and encouraging you can’t help but get infected by her enthusiasm. She’s created a great community of fasters.
Same! When I began fasting, she was one of the few that could explain the science to where I could truly understand it. Her energy is great!
Same! I've lost 30 pounds using fasting, and I'm in the best shape of my life! And, I'm a mom and grandmother! Dr. Mindy is the best.
I just heard that you might bring Dr. Mindy back for a second round. I'm so happy about this. She is an incredible human who touched so many of us with her teaching and YOU played a big role in putting the message out there. I took a screenshot from this interview, framed it and put it on my wall to always remind myself of that day were I finally turned my life around and started the healing journey. I HEALED MYSELF. That's what Dr. Mindy would want me to say because she doesn't want the credit for it. ❤🙏🏻💚🦋
This is by far the most interesting, informative and thought provoking 2 hours of my life on youtube. I could spend weeks picking Dr. Mindy"s mind. I think this interview should be seen by everyone on earth.
Yep, I agree. 🙌🏾
So true.
Agreed
Right on!
I've been fasting for around a year and it's completely turned my life around and made me a new person. For anyone whose seen the movie "Limitless," Fasting is like the natural version of the drug that's depicted in the movie. If the masses knew about the state of fasting, drug companies and gyms would be out of business.
What’s your usual fast length and routine?
Now that IS inspiring, the Limitless experience the dream (apart from the Russian gangster bit obviously)
Now. Start while the idea is fresh in your mind. Take PTO a week, I personally drive to city far from my own. Don't touch social media. And just start drinking water. Go as long as your body can handle. I fasted 4 days, I had no energy, I just drank water and slept. At one point my body started puking out all the water I drank but get this, it WAS NOT CLEAR. On day 4 my body was getting rid of toxins in the only way it could. In addition, sweat! I would turn the shower on super hot, let the bathroom transform into a sauna and let the toxins come out through your skin(in a hotel, i would not do this in my own home). When you reach the point where you KNOW you can't keep going, ease the food back in. Just like she said, introduce healthy small portions of food. Then just don't stop this new habit and intermediate fast daily. Do these long fasts when you either find yourself turning to back to the bad habits. I'm not a doctor so this is just my experience but it works for me!
Dang! A year?! I usually only make it 12-15 hours. 😏
@@pdigital247 hahaha
This episode deserves an award!! I'm only two-thirds through and have learned so much. Thank you both so much 🙏
I was thinking the same! Dr Mindi should be up for the Nobel peace prize bringing Harmony and great health to the world. 👍🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽🌼💕
As a nursing student I can't help but feel that the NHS really need to listen to this. So many struggling nurse , really poor health, nightshift , 12.5hr shifts irregular hours , days , nights. It's madness.
I have suffered from eating disorders almost all my adult life. I’ve been through mental health issues, loss of my period for 3 years a few years ago and no doctor was able to help me understand why and currently discovered I have pcos. Our bodies are soooooo complex! I loved this episode, how smoothly she was explaining everything in such a way that made me smile and get some hope!
Thanks so much for it ❤
My sister also has Borderline Personality Disorder and it largely drove her eating disorders from her teen years forward (into her 50s).
She was misdiagnosed as having bipolar disorder (because psychologists largely have no education on recognizing and diagnosing Cluster B disorders, much less how to treat them), and getting an accurate diagnosis helped her get the combination of therapy she needed to give her the tools to identify and coping strategies to deal with the thinking patterns that largely drove her eating disorder.
Wishing you well as you work to move past the thought patterns that drive the disorder.
I want to live in a world full of people like these two! So grateful for the excellent conversation, generous spirits, optimism, and open mindedness. Thank you.❤
Amazing information
My anxiety and depression is gone, chronic pain in joints is gone, acne is gone, chronic fatigue is gone, excess fat gone, food obsessiom gone, counting calories gone, all from time restricted eating 11am to 7pm eating window and cutting out processed food and sugar. I'm 45 female and feel the best I've felt I years, never hungry. Mindy and Jason Fung and Low Carb MD podcast.... all the science is out there, do your own research ❤
Dr. Mindy Pelz you are an absolutely amazing human and communicator. I'm the sole care provider for my wife who has Alzheimer's and despite what I know (or think / though I knew) you've given me a whole new perspective on how best to help her. Thank you!
Dr Mindy has changed my life! She was on a Mel Robbins podcast and I then went looking for her. I can listen to her all day, every day. I have her book Fast Like A Girl and now follow a fasting lifestyle, and will never look back - it works for me. It's all backed by science and I love the way she explains it in a way that everyone can understand. Such a great episode. She's amazing!
You are amazing. I am gynaecologist and I am trying to deliver those messages to patients for a long time, however, so difficult when you only one on battlefield. A lot of respect for your work ! Much needed to share a message worldwide !
😅😮😅😮😅😮😮😮😮😮😅😮😮😅😅😮😅😮😅😅😮😮
I have two books from this woman and the more I watch her more I understand her feelings of passing this information to the world . . why we have to change. She knows the autophagy stage and uses it !! We change our mentality, we heal our body and we get more empathy towards others in this stage of the body. I have a lot respect for her work . She has a hard job to make people understand we have to make this change. I’m trying with my family and it’s not easy make that switch in our brain .
thank you so much to be part of it ❤
Sorry , English is not

Sorry I didn’t get that gift 🎁
@Ronie Sousa it’s a scam there is no gift
This podcast has changed my life, literally. As a 53-year-old woman... I feel so lucky that I got to change how I look after myself before any dis-ease ... and adding to Dr. Amen's podcast... I have such ammunition for my health. Thank you so much Steven Sir ❤
impossible not to comment...! WOW... as a 53 year old woman who had struggled all my adult life with hormone unbalance and weight issues , transitioning to menaupause this was a tremendous gift! Thank you! ... and the ending question just the perfect end... tears in my eyes 🙏🙏🙏💓💞💓
Can you post an update?
Bless Dr Mindy. I've followed her for years and because of her I prevented a spinal fusion. I do a 72-hr water fast about twice a year. 1st time I was due for a 3rd low back surgery (fusion) and at the 72 hour mark of my water fast the skeletal/muscular stem cells produced to such a degree that the stabbing pain due to my herniation at L5-S1 that I had for over 10 years was 100% gone. No surgery. No injections. Just extended water fasting with sufficient electrolytes (super important). That was a little over 3 years ago. Pain still gone and I just came off 7th 72 hr water fast last week. I'm just shy of 60-years-old.
@craigsmitg6914 thanks for sharing! What are you taking for electrolytes? And do you fast during the remainder of the year, if so how long.
Great info! I've been working on reducing severe blood clotting issues. I knew the problem and its solution was internal when I first noticed my leg swelling and immediately learned of 3 enzymes and diet changes, so started that asap.
It's been 7 months my way vs GP & Vasc Drs & $$$ pills that did nothing good. I still have a slightly swollen ankle, still working on it, but no leg distress. I could improve more, I do like some alcohol, I'm a munch, need to walk the dogs more - no 64yr old Angel here.
Now I've watched this - I'd be gobsmacked if a 72 hr fast would reset it all. This Dr Mindy certainly clarified why & how fasting works, couldn't get more 'root cause' than a base cellular 'reset'. HMMMM No clotting, less achy pains, energy, clarity .....
You do this twice a year??? I could do that! Great idea, Thank you!
How much weight lost in 72 hours?
Amazing!
awesome! did you have coffee or MCT during the 72 hr water fasting? how much water did you consume each day?
My husband and I listened to 1:20- the end together and my husband said “ thank you and I loved learning about this and I never knew it learned and thank you for teaching me how incredible this is”.
Just finished watching this in two sittings to really digest everything this brilliant woman was saying. She’s so clear, concise and holds an extreme wealth of knowledge about anything Steven asked her.
Listening to Mindy talk about menopause and women made me sit up, open my ears and shed a tear all at the same time.
I had no idea you even existed and now I want to binge consume absolutely everything you have to say about everything.
I’ve watched quite a few of your interviews with others and I have to say, I am definitely one of the people you’re talking about that this will benefit!
Thank you. I feel I have work to do, things to learn and changes to make that I now believe are in my own control
Same girl! It's funny because I've been naturally on this path lately. She's going to be my new go-to for my down to earth biological information.
