Being from Africa, I am astounded by how wealthy, healthy every-opportunity-available Americans claim victimhood. About half way through this book the author started talking about using weekly coffee enemas, sleeping with castor oil packs over your liver, red light therapy and having your breast implants removed - if fasting wasn’t working for you. Mindy helps you to take back control of your health by using the quickest path back to better healthfasting. It felt like they decided in the beginning the book had to be 8 hours an filled it up with repeated information.

A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. I bought the book but it doesn’t seem to have the recommendations for CGMs and finger prick glucose testing in Appendix C as referenced in one of the chapters. The information was really useful and I learned additional information to what I already knew which I am happy and grateful for however, this is 8 hours of repetitive information that could have been condensed into 2. This is a great book for women to learn a healthy way to fast that works with their cycling hormones.Mindy helps you to take back control of your health by using the quickest path back to better health—fasting. I would love something that goes along with the book and MY cycle that tells you foods to eat for certain times of the month or which exercise would good or not good. Sure, it might be worth reading, and I know women have more to think about when it comes to fasting than men do.

Mindy shares proven strategies, specific protocols to use if you are trying to overcome a condition, fasting hacks, and tools that she has used to help hundreds of thousands of women thrive with their fasting lifestyles. The writing style employed in the text is characterized by its clarity, conciseness, and ease of comprehension, rendering it highly accessible to a broad range of readers. If it seems impossible, that’s OK – it’s highly inadvisable to jump right into such an intense fast without any preparation or practice. And around, you know, that time we also were getting a lot of press coming from different health influencers, preaching that women shouldn’t fast at all.But there is a lot of fear and a lot of vulnerability, you know, of all the things I put out into the world, writing a book is a really intimate experience.
