Intermittent Fasting: Friend or Foe for Active Women (Especially Those Between 40-55)

Intermittent fasting (IF) is often promoted as a simple way to enhance everything from brain function to insulin sensitivity, while also helping to maintain muscle and reduce body fat. But as I answer questions from my clients about whether it’s right for them, I find myself wondering: is intermittent fasting suitable for everyone? This week I’m diving into the latest evidence on IF, especially for active women.

In this week’s menu, I'm sharing a variety of dishes which include:

  • a fresh and crunchy salad with a rich, nutty dressing

  • a hearty and flavorful meat dish, seasoned with aromatic herbs

  • a delicious vegetarian enchilada

  • a sweet and nutritious snack that combines nuts and dried fruit, perfect for an energy boost! Speaking of energy, have you listened to our latest Love You More Podcast: Supporting Your Energy?
