The FastingWell Podcast

Today I walk you through my perspective about who should or shouldn’t be fasting.

I explain 3 groups: Those who should NOT fast, those who SHOULD fast, and those who fall somewhere in between -- the “maybe” group. The first group is easy to explain, but the 2nd and 3rd groups have a lot more nuance, and take a bit longer.
Overall, the vast majority of people fall into the group who would very likely benefit from intermittent fasting (or any type of fasting).

Today I'll share 9 essential tips to help you be successful as a total beginner with intermittent fasting (aka time-restricted eating). My ultimate goal is to help you be successful with fasting from the very start, so you can improve your health, live longer, and feel better.

Gin Stephens is a prolific author of several books about intermittent fasting, including the best-seller “Fast. Feast. Repeat.” She also has a podcast, a blog, and a thriving fasting community. Today she was kind enough to join me for a far-ranging discussion about intermittent fasting. Unfortunately, there was a technical glitch and my voice sounds fuzzy. But when Gin is talking the audio is just fine, so feel free to focus on those sections. Timestamps are below so you can easily jump to specific topics!

These patients also lost weight, improved their hemoglobin A1c, and reduced their waist circumference.
Overall, super-impressive results, and very encouraging for anyone who wants to put type 2 diabetes in remission!
