In this episode of The Evolving Wellness Podcast, I chat with Jonathan Shane about the impact of the infradian rhythm on a woman’s ability to lose weight. While most women try to keep a consistent and restrictive diet at all times — on top of a strict exercise regimen — they tend to end up in an endless cycle of falling into the trap of binge eating. What women fail to realize is that it’s because they don’t adjust their diet based on where they are in their menstrual cycle.

Jonathan and I also chat about the importance of eating produce that is in season, instead of whatever is imported into the grocery store. Sarah suggests a few low-sugar and fatty fruit that is safe to eat depending on where you live and what time of the year it is.

Jonathan Shane is the owner of Keto Road LLC and a certified FNTP specializing in ketogenic diets, metabolic health, and women’s health. Overcoming an 8-year battle with bulimia and body image issues, he knows the struggles of finding true health and food freedom. He has used the keto diet to not only develop a healthy body but a healthy mind and overcome eating disorders and body dysmorphia. He devotes his life and experience to helping you change yours!
