446: The Life Changing Path of Intermittent Fasting
Hi Beauties!
Remember when breakfast was the most important meal of the day? Or so we thought. In fact, new research shows there may be benefits from skipping your avocado toast in the morning. In this week's Five Minute Friday, I will be discussing the increasingly popular Intermittent Fasting diet; its benefits, and my personal experience. Intermittent fasting has shown effective results for weight loss, benefits include improving insulin resistance, lowering cholesterol, and reducing inflammation. In my experience, I like to have a late dinner around 8 pm and have a low-calorie to a zero-calorie meal in the morning like green juice or black coffee. I 100% stand by adding my popular Simply Inulin powder and Internal Radiance Beauty Collagen to my juices because they keep me satiated until lunch. Over the course of the pandemic, I have lost 15 pounds while intermittent fasting! Can you believe it? Comment down below if you are currently on or want to try Intermittent Fasting. Just remember: There's no one-size-fits-all plan when it comes to diet and lifestyle. Obviously, consult your physician if you're thinking of beginning this diet. If you have a question about something you’d like covered on the podcast, feel free to send me a DM or email info@beautybydrkay.com and I’d be happy to respond!

Hello, Beauties!
Welcome back to another episode of Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon! Today, I am talking all about lip filler migration. In recent years, Lip filler migration has become a huge concern among patients and injectors. Lips have been over-filled repeatedly to fit unrealistic beauty standards, and now the negative side effects are more apparent than ever. If you have filler migration, we discuss options on how to dissolve it with an enzyme called Hylenex and start fresh.
