          • Sparing muscle loss during fat loss is what every midlife woman needs to hear before trying another fasting trend. 

            Whether intermittent fasting truly delivers fat loss benefits — or if it quietly costs you the very muscle that protects your metabolism, we’ll talk about the latest 2025 research reveals about protein-sparing modified fasting, autophagy, ketones, and why calorie deficit alone isn’t the full story. 

            In this episode, know if fasting fits your body or not — if you’re in perimenopause or postmenopause and want better body composition without wrecking recovery.

            Sparing muscle loss during fat loss isn’t about eating less and hoping for the best — it’s about using science strategically to protect strength, metabolism, and longevity.
