If you're doing all the "right things" and still struggling to burn fat, we need to talk about your liver.

What I see most often? Women who are fasting consistently but missing two major nutrients their bodies need to build hormones:
💧 Minerals (like magnesium, potassium, and sodium)
🧬 Amino acids (especially if you’re not eating enough protein in your eating window)
These aren’t optional, especially for women. They’re foundational for hormone production, energy, and making your fast work for you, not against you.
In my latest YouTube video, I walk you through what to take in and out of your fasting window, and how to make sure your body gets what it needs to thrive.

This might be one of the most powerful studies I’ve ever come across on women and breast cancer, and it’s something every woman should know.

Let me tell you something Fast Like a Girl taught thousands of women, including me:
There is nothing wrong with you. Your female body was never designed for the one-size-fits-all approach.
She needs rhythm.
She needs respect.
She needs you to listen.
Because here’s the truth I want you to hold onto:
Your body is always working for you, not against you.
If that changed something in you…pass it on. Another woman needs this too 💙

The oils in your kitchen could be the hidden trigger behind stubborn weight, joint pain, brain fog, or why your fasts just don’t feel as good as they used to.
Oils like canola, vegetable, and soybean oil are highly processed, inflammatory, and disrupt your hormones.
Instead, swap in nourishing, hormone-loving fats like avocado oil, grass-fed ghee, and olive oil. These healing fats support metabolic health, hormone production, and actually help you feel better.
Your hormones feel everything you eat. Even your cooking oil.

Your body is not the problem.
It’s the wisdom you’ve been ignoring because no one taught you how to listen.
Healing isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about softening into self-respect, learning your unique rhythms, and showing up with love, even when it’s messy.
What’s one way you’re showing your body love this week?

Most people think autophagy just happens when you skip a few meals…
But the truth is, autophagy is activated through discomfort, specifically, something called hormetic stress.
That tough moment in your fast around hour 17? That’s where your body says, “I’m under stress, I better start cleaning up.”
Want to understand how to tap into this powerful healing state?

One of the top questions I get: “Dr. Mindy, how should I break my fast?”
The first thing I want to tell you is, how you break your fast matters. It’s not just about eating clean… it’s about eating with intention.
Avocado, nut butters, grass-fed ghee, MCT oil, these are some of my go-to’s, and in Eat Like a Girl, I break down exactly why and when to use them based on your goals.
Want to build muscle? You’ll break it differently than if you’re aiming to trigger autophagy.
Working on gut health? That’s another approach entirely.
Your first meal sets the tone for your hormones, brain, and energy.
Tell me, what do YOU love breaking your fast with? 👇

Most people think the hard part of fasting is a sign to stop.
But that moment where you're questioning everything... is exactly when your body starts to turn on autophagy, your internal clean-up crew.
Getting uncomfortable is what sparks deep cellular repair. The next time you hit that wall, remember: that’s where the magic starts.
