Continuing with the theme of hormones in this bitesize episode Angela looks at the neuropeptide hormone, kisspeptin and the vital role it plays in fasting

There is a common misconception that the more fasting you do the better but as a woman, it’s all about hormonal balance and Angela explains how kisspeptin works and shares a short clip from her interview with Dr Stacey Sims, who shares invaluable information on the importance for women of taking into account hormonal balance when fasting



KEY TAKEAWAYS
The neuropeptide kisspeptin is really important in the context of fasting
To go into full cellular autophagy takes anyway between 24 and 48 hours depending on the individual
Exercise is a powerful tool in stimulating autophagy
Intermittent fasting and keto are more of an elimination diet
If you are layering exercise and intermittent fasting it will take you above the stress level that a woman’s body should be in
Kisspeptin is responsible for turning the endocrine system on and off
One of the by-products of the conversion of oestrogen is more cortisol



BEST MOMENTS

‘Pre-fuelling with essential amino acids can be very positive’

‘The whole hormonal aspect of what's happening is so far removed from what a man would experience’

‘You need to think about your diet and exercise together’
