Ep. 62 | Why Intermittent Fasting Sabotages Your Menopause Body
Why Intermittent Fasting Sabotages Your Menopausal Body
In this eye-opening episode of Nutrition Your Way, we tackle the popular trend of intermittent fasting and why it's fundamentally incompatible with the menopausal body. While social media influencers might promote intermittent fasting as a one-size-fits-all solution, the reality is that your menopausal body requires a completely different approach.
Discover why skipping breakfast can trigger a cascade of hormonal disruptions during menopause, leading to increased belly fat, anxiety, and disrupted sleep patterns. We dive deep into the science of why your body's stress response system, insulin regulation, and cortisol patterns make intermittent fasting not just ineffective, but potentially harmful during this life stage.
This episode breaks down:
- The crucial differences between a 20-something body and a menopausal body
- How menopause changes your body's stress response system
- Why breakfast becomes non-negotiable during menopause
- Practical, hormone-friendly alternatives to intermittent fasting
- Simple strategies for timing your meals to support your changing metabolism
Whether you're approaching menopause, in the thick of it, or supporting someone who is, this episode provides clear, science-backed guidance for working with your body's natural rhythm, not against it. Learn why nourishing your body consistently throughout the day isn't just about comfort – it's about hormonal necessity.
