KEY TAKEAWAYS
You have to stop eating all day – we operate with two energy systems, one where we burn energy from what we eat and one where we burn energy from fat.
You cannot get to the energy system burning fat without fasting
You need to be sensitive to the fact you become more insulin resistant in your forties and beyond
5:1:1 variation works with 5 days of intermittent fasting, 1 day of extended fasting and 1 day of eating
Vary your foods through keto variations
There are specific bacteria in the gut that break down oestrogen
You have to become insulin sensitive to make oestrogen but you also need a healthy liver and the right bacteria in the gut to break oestrogen down so that it can enter the body
Detoxing makes the biggest difference to your hormones.
You need to stop toxifying yourself, review what you put on your skin, what’s in your environment and what you are putting into your body
You can stimulate autophagy so the cells are detoxing themselves
Infertility, challenging menopause and compromised immune systems are all toxic issues
A toxic-free environment must be a priority
Exercise variation is the key to successful training over forty.
The goal is to build a fasting lifestyle that can successfully make a difference and be maintained.

 

BEST MOMENTS
