About this listen

A go-to fasting manual created specifically to address women's needs based on their hormones and menstrual cycle by Dr. Mindy Pelz, a well-known expert on women and fasting, whose fast-growing YouTube channel has become the destination for women who want to learn about fasting. Also includes a 30-day fasting reset that uses the power of your cycle-even if you no longer have one!

"I have never met someone that has more respect for the body and its innate intelligence to heal than Mindy. Her reverence for the body is met with an intense passion for helping people learn how to tap into it through the timing of fasting, eating, and detoxing. This way of living is the way of the future for all women if they want to truly thrive."-Danica Patrick, entrepreneur and former race car driver

Are you among the many women who feel unheard and unseen by their doctors and health professionals? Have you become exhausted by the promise of quick-fix diets that only leave you disappointed? Well, in Fast Like a Girl, Dr. Mindy helps you to take back control of your health by using the quickest path back to better health-fasting.

While most fasting advice has been a one-size-fits-all approach that leaves women with more questions than answers, in this book Dr. Mindy shares proven strategies, specific protocols to use if you are trying to overcome a condition, fasting hacks, and tools that she has used to help hundreds of thousands of women thrive with their fasting lifestyles.

Dr. Mindy will teach you:

- the right steps on how to go from eating all day to intermittent fasting (13-15 hours)

- how to safely fast longer if you choose to do so (15-72 hours)

- how to time fasting according to your menstrual cycle (although if you don't have a cycle, she has you covered)

- the best foods to break your fast to achieve better metabolic health

This book also includes more than 50 recipes based on the two food plans

-ketobiotic and hormone feasting-she created to best support women's hormones. And it has recipes specifically created to break a fast such as her Coconut Cacao Chia Pudding.

Inspired by the thousands of women she has worked with who have reclaimed their health with fasting, Dr. Mindy wrote this book because "once a woman knows how to build a fasting lifestyle around her cycle, she becomes unstoppable."

This audio product contains a PDF with supporting material, and the PDF is available to download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Relieved

I am relieved that people r acknowledging women health is different from men’s and that we to need our own studies! Nature has designed all of us the way it knows best but it helps if we had an owners manual and now it seems like we do! Thank you Dr Mindy I enjoy your work please keep it up!

finally something focused around women's cycles

Not often do you come across a resource actually taking into a account that women are different. our bodies are unique and require special attention to nurture our cycles.

great listen, although I do think the paper book would be more useful for referencing somewhat complex ideas more readily

definitely recommend. even if I never try fasting, I feel like I understand my female body more

Lots of fasting types and advice.

Lots of fasting information..got confusing sometimes. I listened on audio and I feel the book would have been a better choice. I disliked the random music that would start playing in the background, very distracting.

The absolute best book on fasting for women!

Dr. Mindy Pelz explains women’s hormones in easy to follow terms. It’s information women should receive in school or by their doctor! I love how she explains the best fasts for different goals and they we can not fast like men! Great information that I plan to share with all women in my life! Our bodies have the power to heal itself…that’s powerful!

This book will change your life!

I recently purchased Fast Like A Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz on Audible. I loved the information she was sharing so much that I needed more, so purchased the hard copy on Amazon, I also started to devour her videos on YouTube. I felt like she had open up an entire world to women that has been vastly under researched and discussed. I went on to purchase a year long subscription to her Reset Academy and let me tell you this is hands down the best investment I’ve made into my health, possibly in my whole life. The knowledge and information she shares there is invaluable for women of all ages and stages. This information will change your life if you’re open to it and embrace it. Dr. Mindy says that “Our Health is Our Responsibility” and that is more true today than ever before, it’s our time to take back our control and power in our lives and of our bodies ladies. I hope you all embrace Dr. Mindy and her teaching as I have and that it changes your life, as it has mine!
