10 Reasons Fasting Can Make You Fat in Perimenopause | MMP Ep. 159


Listen Later

Can fasting be beneficial? For some - Yes. BUT fasting is meant to be a short term tactic to address a specific problem.


Unfortunately for the thousands of women we have worked with fasting made things WORSE for them. In fact I can count the number of women who have done a short term fast in our coaching program for a very specific problem.


Fasting is NOT appropriate for the majority of women in perimenopause and the years that follow.


In this episode I will help you understand what fasting actually does to your body, if it is appropriate for you and some really great first steps to start addressing the real issues holding you back from achieving your health and fitness goals.


Make sure to share with all the fasters in your life and if you want to take advantage of a free assessment you can book your call here: https://calendly.com/d/2p8-mxx-dgf/free-calorie-calculation-consultation-call-zoom
