Fast Like a Girl: A Woman's Guide to Using the Healing Power of Fasting to Burn Fat, Boost Energy, and Balance Hormones

I can’t recommend Fast Like a Girl enough! Dr. Mindy Pelz completely changed the way I see fasting and my own health. This book is a must-read for women of all ages—it busts so many myths about fasting and women’s hormones and makes everything so easy to understand. Personally, this has been a transformative experience for me. I finally feel like I have a clear path to health and wellness instead of just guessing what works. If you’re a woman trying to get your energy back, balance your hormones, or just feel better, do yourself a favor and read this book. It’s a total game-changer!

What this book made me feel is anger. I am angry that this basic but vital knowledge of how female hormones work isn't taught to us in our schools. I am angry how the patriarchal society and mindset give no importance to females and their reproductive systems, even though they rely on us to continue the species. I am angry how food, pharma and lifestyle companies, in the name of making money, are destroying human life. I am angry that I have to deal with my PCOS and the writhing pain it brings me every month, and it wasn't even my fault to begin with. But I am glad that I have read Fast Like a Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz. Now, I understand what my female body needs and, more importantly, what it doesn't need. I wish I could immediately make a drastic change in support of my female body, but healing is a slow process. And now, thanks to this book, I know where to start. Ladies! Whether you have any female hormone problem or not... Whether you are interested in a fasting lifestyle or not... READ THIS BOOK! Fast Like a Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz will give you the knowledge of how your body functions, why what works for others (esp. men) doesn't work for you, and how you can take care of yourself in each phase of your monthly cycle and beyond.

I didn't know I needed this book, until I came across Dr. Mindy! I read it pretty much in one go. Need to read again, to understand it on a deeper level. It is a reference book for lifetime and answers mosy pressing issues that have never been answered before. I enjoyed reading it and have been trying to apply the principles in my life. Needless to say, I feel weight loss is quite doable and easy to explain to myself and also others. The whole idea about how hormones affect our physiology is rarely taught to people who don't take medical courses in university. A book like this, is a boon for us! Thank you so much for such a wonderful book!

Liked her talks, so bought the book. I was apprehensive seeing the comments the print quality is bad etc. and there is no return option. Anyway, took a chance. The book is in great condition and good.print. I am happy I took a chance.

Dr. Mindy has put all her knowledge, and her heart in the book. I follow all her videos , and the info shared by her is a eye opener. The book is very well written, has lots and lots of information and knowledge. Worth reading if you are a fasting fan, especially women

I read this book all the time. I refer back to it whenever I need a new recipe or want to know which phase I’m at. I go back to the book and read it. This is a great, easy read; it tells you which phase you are in and explains how to take care of yourself and feed accordingly. I really enjoyed this book. I purchased it a year ago, and I’ve used it very frequently ever since. Even now, it’s on my nightstand. I have lost a lot of weight with the help of this book. I’ve regulated my menstrual cycle, which is the best outcome. So, anyone struggling with their menstrual cycle or aiming to target something specific should read this book because it helps you understand how your hormones work in your body. Our hormones work together or against each other, and it’s really important to know how to handle different situations.

Love this book! I watch & follow Dr Mindy Pelz on various social platforms. This book is very popular so I had to get my own as I cannot always watch videos etc. Book is super informative on food, various fasts & their benefits along with recipes. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

This book is supported with science and research and explains you how food timing and fasting can support hormonal health, healing, detox, weight loss and mental clarity for women. Highly recommended.

I was eagerly anticipating this release and read it straight through upon reception. If you are a fasting novice, I entreat you to take your time reading this book though. Always consult with your healthcare provider before applying what you will learn in Fast Like a Girl. Written in her passionate voice followers of Dr. Mindy's YouTube channel appreciates so much, this will take you on a personalised journey of fasting for women at last. How to fast optimally for your hormonal cycle, recipes, 6 types of fasts, fasting for specific conditions - it is all in here. Several case studies, lifestyle adjustments, personalised tweaks, how to break a fast, and much more. A grain of wisdom that stood out for me was to over the period of a month vary your nourishment by as many as 200 items. That will definitely be a fascinating experiment. Readers get access to an app, that will soon be released. There are also Hay House offerings for readers.

Excellent book
