About this listen

A go-to fasting manual created specifically to address women's needs based on their hormones and menstrual cycle by Dr. Mindy Pelz, a well-known expert on women and fasting, whose fast-growing YouTube channel has become the destination for women who want to learn about fasting. Also includes a 30-day fasting reset that uses the power of your cycle-even if you no longer have one!

"I have never met someone that has more respect for the body and its innate intelligence to heal than Mindy. Her reverence for the body is met with an intense passion for helping people learn how to tap into it through the timing of fasting, eating, and detoxing. This way of living is the way of the future for all women if they want to truly thrive."-Danica Patrick, entrepreneur and former race car driver

Are you among the many women who feel unheard and unseen by their doctors and health professionals? Have you become exhausted by the promise of quick-fix diets that only leave you disappointed? Well, in Fast Like a Girl, Dr. Mindy helps you to take back control of your health by using the quickest path back to better health-fasting.

While most fasting advice has been a one-size-fits-all approach that leaves women with more questions than answers, in this book Dr. 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.

Dr. Mindy will teach you:

- the right steps on how to go from eating all day to intermittent fasting (13-15 hours)

- how to safely fast longer if you choose to do so (15-72 hours)

- how to time fasting according to your menstrual cycle (although if you don't have a cycle, she has you covered)

- the best foods to break your fast to achieve better metabolic health

This book also includes more than 50 recipes based on the two food plans

-ketobiotic and hormone feasting-she created to best support women's hormones. And it has recipes specifically created to break a fast such as her Coconut Cacao Chia Pudding.

Inspired by the thousands of women she has worked with who have reclaimed their health with fasting, Dr. Mindy wrote this book because "once a woman knows how to build a fasting lifestyle around her cycle, she becomes unstoppable."

This audio product contains a PDF with supporting material, and the PDF is available to download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I loved this book and I will definitely be using it as my go to book whilst on my fasting journey. The fact it came with with a pdf to refer to is really beneficial also. I would recommend this book to anyone who needs a complete guide to intermittent fasting for a variety of health reasons especially beginners.

I love this book and keep coming back to it every month. Im a pro faster but i never considered the impact on the hormones and menstrual cycle. After 5/6 years of 20/4 fasting my period was not the same and i was even thinking if i could be perimenopausal. Im 37.
After implementing it (no fast week was a nightmare) I saw immediate improvement in my period flow after the first month. Fasting is for life and i feel better than ever.
If you’re interested in weight loss, which i was when i started fasting years ago, fasting was
the only thing that worked for me and it felt easy. I lost more than 15kg since started, but i did it slowly. No more than 2/3kg each time cause i wanted to ensure every time i lost weight i would set a new baseline. Im 57kg now, look very lean and fit and i don’t workout. I only walk and i do it everyday. I have loads of energy, never feel tired or hungry. Sleep well and i feel and loom better than in my 20s. I recommend it to everyone.

I find this book super informative, but I am disappointed with no pdf for visuals, as Dr. mentions in her book.

Great book, but no pdf

As soon as I finished I ordered the written copy because I know I will revisit sections of this over and over again for myself and my clients as a naturopath :) brilliant!!

I've lost count of how many books I've bought on this topic and been so disappointed. This is the first book that that explains the what, why and when of fasting. To put the cherry on top it is done in simple terms that I think anyone can understand and work out what they need to do for their own individual needs. Very well narrated. 5 star review. Will be seeking more from this author.

Best Fasting Book So Far

I didn't realise I knew so little about the basics of female systems. Everything is slotting into place, and making sense for the first time. Thanks a million for this treasure trove of wisdom to shed a light on such fundamental workings of our bodies, which I will pass on to my own daughter.

Totally changed the way I view and manage my body

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 2.5-3 hours. I am surprised it wasn't flagged at editing. I was constantly rolling my eyes at how many times information was repeated. It felt like they decided in the beginning the book had to be 8 hours an filled it up with repeated information.

Good Book but VERY Repetitive

Very good information which I did not know until I read this book, thank you for that!

Amazing information
