Never Diet Again with Max Lowery

#69 Is Intermittent Fasting Safe for Women Over 40?


Listen Later

Intermittent fasting transformed my life — but for many women over 40, it’s doing more harm than good.

In this episode, I break down why fasting can backfire when hormones, stress, and metabolism shift during perimenopause and menopause. You’ll learn the biggest mistake women make with fasting, how to improve metabolic flexibility without extreme restriction, and why emotional eating — not food itself — might be your biggest weight loss blocker.

I also share 3 simple, sustainable habits that help reset your body to burn fat naturally, without tracking or skipping meals.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why fasting doesn’t work the same after 40
  • How hormone changes affect cravings and belly fat
  • Why “discipline” isn’t the problem — and what actually is
  • The truth about metabolic flexibility and sugar-burning mode
  • 3 habits to ditch cravings and feel in control again

If you've tried everything and still feel stuck, this episode will shift your perspective — and give you tools that actually work.

Listen now and start getting results that last. 🎧
