Episode notes
Fasting Guidelines for Women
- Women should avoid fasting longer than 12 hours daily to prevent downregulation of key fertility hormones.
- For longevity benefits, do 24-hour fasts a few times a month and quarterly 3-5 day cleanses with mindfulness on diet quality.
Fertility Diet and Exercise
- Boost fertility with a nutrient-dense diet rich in fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and especially vitamin K (MK4 form).
- Combine this diet with biomechanics exercises like glute bridges, squats, and swimming to prepare the body for pregnancy.
No One Perfect Diet
- There is no one perfect diet for everyone because of biochemical individuality and genetics.
- Mediterranean diet is a broad guideline that reduces mortality risk and improves nutrient levels for most people.
