Ep 120 | Intermittent Fasting: A Fat Loss Hack Or A Metabolism Trap?
Description
Over my nutrition career I’ve done a complete 180 on fasting—actually, more like four 180s. From 16:8 and MCT coffee to “fasting is terrible for women” to “fasting is the magic bullet” and now?… well, you'll have to listen to find out! In this episode, I break down where my views stand today, how fasting compares to simply eating in a calorie deficit, and the role of autophagy in health. We’ll cover when fasting might be helpful, when it could backfire (especially for women), and why more isn’t always better. Whether you’re a die-hard intermittent faster or fasting-curious, this episode will give you a clear, science-informed, and practical perspective on how to make fasting work—or not work—for you.
