Welcome to "Thriving in Midlife Redefining Aging with Wellness" the podcast where we discuss how to live an extraordinary life in every aspect. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality.
In this episode of Thriving in Midlife, I am joined by Dr. Heidi to dive deep into the world of fasting, focusing on the power of a 24-hour fast as a health reboot. Whether you’re familiar with intermittent fasting or just curious about fasting as a tool to reset your body, this episode is packed with practical advice on how to prepare for your first fast, stay hydrated, and use fasting as a long-term strategy to improve overall health.
Key Highlights:
Importance of discussing fasting with your doctor, especially if you're on multiple medications.
Pre-fast hydration tips: increasing electrolytes and water intake.
Recognizing signs of dehydration versus overhydration.
Suggested meals leading up to the fast: focus on proteins, fats, and whole foods.
Cultivating a positive mindset before starting the fast.
Recommendations on exercise levels before and during the fast.
Importance of having a nutrient-dense meal to break the fast and enhance recovery.
Key Quotes:
"Brain health is something that we don't really think about or improve upon or work on or have a plan for until we're in cognitive decline. And especially speaking for women and especially after menopause, we are at risk for early cognitive decline and we've got to be supporting our brain health and fasting is one of those beautiful ways that we can do so." – Kellie Lupsha
"Fasting helps and forces the body to recruit fat storage for energy. As long as we keep feeding, it's not going to recruit from the storage tank. But when we get depleted, that's when it pulls out the storage tank. And it just becomes a more efficient machine on recruiting that fat for energy. And so we can lose some of that inflammation." – Dr. Heidi Iratcabal
