Are you feeling confused about fasting, weight loss peptides, and nutrition, especially since most of the research seems to be on sedentary people who look nothing like you? If you're an active woman trying to figure out whether these trends and studies actually apply to you, this episode is for you.

I'm joined by nurse practitioner Cynthia Thurlow, and together we unpack what the science really says and what it means for women like us.

We cover:

What metabolic health really means
Whether fasting is the magic bullet, or a minefield, for active women
The one experiment you absolutely should try for yourself
What it means to "microdose" weight loss peptides
