255. Fasted Exercise, Weight Gain While Endurance Training and Carb Timing During Menopause with Debbie Potts

I love dual podcasts when two experts come together to discuss a variety of topics. This episode features Debbie Potts, low carb athlete and endurance extraordinaire.

Debbie and I also tackle timing of carbs. sometimes in the peri menopausal or menopausal states. If you are endurance training, powerlifting, or CrossFitting, it's a little bit different for you...not necessarily just low carb all the time. You can be low carb, with a little bit of carbs...now doesn't that make you want to listen?Debbie Potts website: https://debbiepotts.net/Low Carb Athlete Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-low-carb-athlete-podcast/id951124097?mt=2&i=360126613Free e-book: Matching The Female Hormones With Fasting, Exercise and Nutrition: https://debbiepotts.lpages.co/matching-the-female-hormones-with-fasting/Shop ALL of Dr. Amie's Fixxr Supplements:Fixxrsupps.comSubscribe to my Text Club: Text DRAMIE to 8332631365LET'S GET YOUR LIFE BACK...Connect with Dr. Amie HornamanBook a free discovery call: https://dramiehornaman.com/pages/book-a-callFREE DOWNLOADS…Are My Labs Optimal?

254. Controversial Topic: Is Intermittent Fasting BAD For the Thyroid? YES, Maybe!

Intermittent fasting as a hypothyroid woman, can it be detrimental? Perhaps? Let's say you choose a 16:8 fast, meaning an 8 hour eating window, you must ask yourself...In those 8 hours are you getting in enough calories, nutrients and good, animal based protein? Ladies in those 8 hours are you getting in 3 protein laden, nutritious, good fat containing meals? If the answer is NO, then you shouldn't be doing it! It is going to be detrimental to your thyroid healing! What will happen is your body will go into a starvation mode from the lack of calories, nutrition and protein and it's going to literally shut down your metabolism. And...all this intermittent fasting is going to work against you. Yep, you guessed it...weight gain. In the long run as it relates to your thyroid, your reverse T3 is going to up because your body will recognize this starvation as a stressor. This will also absolutely raise your cortisol levels which will in addition increase reverse T3. Intermittent fasting must be done correctly if you want positive results. The key is, during you window of eating, your nutrition must be impeccably perfect.Join Dr. Amie's LOVE YOUR MIRROR private Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/dramie/Shop ALL of Dr. Amie's Fixxr Supplements:Fixxrsupps.comSubscribe to my Text Club: Text DRAMIE to 8332631365LET'S GET YOUR LIFE BACK...Connect with Dr. Amie HornamanBook a free discovery call: https://dramiehornaman.com/pages/book-a-callFREE DOWNLOADS…Are My Labs Optimal?
