Like Viktor Frankl famously said, between stimulus and response, there is a space. Inside that space, there's a choice. And in that choice lies our freedom and our liberation. Well, that stimulus, in this case, the hunger and the space I found between that and the response, like just mindlessly going to the fridge, like started to enhance my ability in other parts of my life.

And it began to sort of punctuate a certain kind of emotional equipoise that I would have in other situations, like when someone would insult me online or when my children would inevitably try to aggravate me or any other stressful thing that came into my life. I just had a little bit of space, a little pause available to me. And that was a very surprising benefit of fasting.

So fasting isn't just physical, it's actually psychological too.

Specifically as it pertains to fasting? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, obviously there are women who've been incredibly influential on my health journey. In fact, I would say... primarily the biggest influences on my health journey have been female, like Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Sarah Godfrey, Dr. Mindy Pelz. Mindy, for example, has written a number of very, very well-researched books on women and fasting.

I think Eat Like a Girl is one of them. And so I would qualify fasting for women. I think that if you're In menopause, or if you're menstruating, I think you need to take to do an extra layer of research around when fasting is appropriate for you versus men who don't experience as much hormonal instability, I guess I would say, or change really.

So I know Mindy has like a lot of recommendations around when the best time to fast is, is like for women who are still on their cycle. So, you know, probably not towards the end of the cycle, but I mean, I won't qualify her recommendations actually, because I'll just let people do their own research. But yes, I do think that... Women and men are physiologically different.

Really for worse, most research until the 90s has been done on men. And certainly the kind of dosages around medications are always geared towards men. And many of the diseases that disproportionately impact women, particularly autoimmune diseases, have gone kind of very like under-researched and under-studied. I mean, the whole world of obstetrics is... in some cases, quite medieval.
