[14:00] What's the Importance of Protein to Aging and Metabolic Health? ● Protein is a critical macronutrient, especially as we age, as it helps stimulate muscle protein synthesis and maintain lean muscle tissue. ● Contrary to previous beliefs, older individuals need more protein to combat muscle loss and support insulin sensitivity. ● The minimum recommended protein intake per meal is 30 grams for most people, with some individuals requiring more based on their needs. ● Properly understanding portion sizes and macronutrient combinations is essential for optimizing protein intake. ● Inadequate protein consumption may contribute to the metabolic health crisis, emphasizing the importance of including enough protein in one's diet as they age. [18:06] Change Your Perspective and Support Your Overall Health! ● Cancer is a multifactorial disease influenced by various factors, including diet, lifestyle, environmental exposures, and even emotional health. ● Fixating on a single aspect, such as excess protein intake and mTOR activation, oversimplifies the complex nature of cancer development. ● Chronic and habitual one-meal-a-day (OMAD) fasting can lead to metabolic distress, muscle loss, and hinder metabolic health. ● Individuals must shift away from restrictive dieting and nourish their bodies with adequate nutrition to support overall health. ● Society's disordered relationship with food, body image, and weight contributes to unhealthy dietary and lifestyle practices and the rise of unhealthy diet culture. [29:35] Here's What You Need To Know About Animal and Plant-Based Protein ● The amino acid composition of animal-based protein is superior to that of plant-based protein. ● When choosing plant-based protein, it's essential to be cautious about consuming excessive carbohydrates to meet protein intake goals. ● Metabolic health and insulin sensitivity are significant in determining the ability to handle plant-based protein, particularly for those in perimenopause and menopause. ● The Protein Leverage Hypothesis highlights the importance of adequate protein intake for satiety and blood sugar regulation. ● Starting the day with a higher protein meal can lead to greater satiety and reduced cravings throughout the day, promoting healthier eating habits. [35:25] How Do You Get More Protein while Intermittent Fasting? Check this out! ● Adjust your fasting and feeding windows to make it more manageable to consume an adequate amount of protein. ● Slowly increase protein intake to reach your target, especially if you are metabolically healthy. ● Use tracking apps like Chronometer to get a clear picture of your daily protein intake. ● Consider incorporating a high-quality protein shake or amino acids if you struggle to meet your protein goals through whole foods. ● Bio-individuality plays a significant role in choosing protein sources and added ingredients, so find what works best for your digestion and preferences. [46:14] Fasting for Menopausal Women and Its Benefits and Considerations ● Focus on managing stress and improving sleep before diving into fasting for postmenopausal women. ● Fasting should be considered one of many strategies and should not be added without addressing foundational issues like sleep and stress. ● Individualize fasting strategies for postmenopausal women and use them as a beneficial stressor rather than overloading the body. ● Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a valid option for menopausal women but should be approached with informed decision-making and working with healthcare providers. ● Understand the hormonal changes in the body during menopause and their influence on fasting and health, including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. [56:08] Strategic Application of Stressors: Hormesis and Fasting ● Utilize hormetic stressors like fasting, exercise, and cold exposure to promote resilience and strength. ● Be strategic with stressors by understanding genetic susceptibility and personal tolerances. ● For some, long fasting, categorized as more than 24 hours, may not be suitable, especially for lean middle-aged individuals, due to concerns about muscle loss. ● Consider gender-specific and age-specific factors when determining the best fasting regimens. ● Monitor health markers, including muscle mass and immune system function, to make informed decisions about fasting strategies. [1:02:00] Achieving Autophagy and Hormetic Stress ● While eating breakfast can be challenging for some, the goal is to consume most of your daily calories earlier, optimizing cortisol levels and insulin sensitivity. ● The timing of meals affects the body's balance of hormones like ghrelin and leptin. ● Blue light exposure, especially at night, can disrupt hormonal rhythms and affect hunger hormones. ● Scientific studies may vary in their findings regarding hormone levels, but real-world results and individual experiences should guide your eating schedule. ● Monitoring your feelings, energy levels, weight loss, mood, and sleep quality is crucial in determining the right breakfast timing. [1:09:00] What effects on your health do environmental toxins have? Reduce Your Risk! ● HRV (Heart Rate Variability) varies significantly from person to person due to genetic and individual factors, making it crucial to establish a personal baseline and progress over time. ● Comparing your HRV to others can lead to frustration and unrealistic expectations, as it's heavily influenced by age, genetics, and other factors. ● Environmental factors, such as mold exposure and EMF radiation, can profoundly affect health, leading to symptoms like poor sleep, weight gain, and inflammation. ● Sensitivity to environmental stressors differs among individuals, making some more like "canaries in the coal mine" who react strongly to these exposures. ● Identifying and addressing environmental contributors to health issues is vital to a holistic approach to well-being.

We're going to talk about things that you can do to slow that process or what you can do to help with all the symptoms that go along with that process, such as insomnia, lack of muscle tone, brain fog, memory and cognition issues as we age.

Cynthia Thurlow, our esteemed guest for today, is a renowned Intermittent fasting expert, Nutrition Educator, and Nurse Practitioner, dedicated to empowering women in their pursuit of vibrant and healthy lives. With almost two decades of experience in clinical medicine, including roles in the ER and cardiology, Cynthia has developed a deep appreciation for the life-saving potential of conventional medicine. However, she soon realized the significance of addressing the underlying causes of chronic health issues. Recognizing the profound impact of food on her patients' well-being, she pursued advanced training in nutrition and functional testing, enabling her to guide others toward optimal health and wellness long before emergency care is necessary. During our discussion, you will discover the right dose of fasting, protein, exercise, and supplementation of Creatine to live a better and healthier life. Cynthia shares her thoughts on the over-fasting female athlete, what happens to the body of a 50 years old woman and how it relates to fasting, and why we can't fuel and train the same as we age. She also talks about the benefits of Creatine, an inositol product to the endurance athlete, the protocols for people trying to get stronger with Creatine, and the importance of Hormonal Replacement Therapy for old men and women.

Women of Impact Podcast is sponsored by Growthday Network: https://growthday.com/podcasts FREE 4-Part Confidence Workshop: https://bit.ly/3fZcbO5 On Today's Episode: There are challenges that come along with being a woman. While we stand up for equal pay, and make sure our voice is heard, there are many areas around our womanhood that don't feel like equality and come they don't necessarily come with the warning lights on. Women's health is one of those areas where we have to embrace we are different. Our hormones and biology don't award us the same benefits as men, which is why medical research and studies focused on women is so critical. Cynthia Thurlow spent the first part of her career as an RN in cardiology and in emergency medicine. Thankfully she pivoted to become the founder of the Everyday Wellness Project and the bestselling author of, Intermittent Fasting Transformation, which focused on fasting for women, losing stubborn weight and improving our hormonal health. Today we dig into more than just the benefits of fasting for women, but also the reason women have to fast differently depending on age and where she is in her menstrual cycle. You've probably heard about the benefits of fasting but this time we're focusing on the benefits of fasting for you and your metabolic health. Cynthia is also going to break down how to implement fasting effectively, and it is the most practical and simplest way to start eating a little less. Her approach is about progression and long term strategy for success, not an all in overnight solution to suffer through. Check out Cynthia's book, Intermittent Fasting Transformation: https://amzn.to/3CHKG4f QUOTES: “Women in particular, have to embrace our physiology, not apologize for it.” “Fasting can be a form of beneficial stress, [...] in the right amount at the right time.” “There's this interrelationship between how frequently we eat, the food choices we make, and ultimately what translates into metabolic health…” “Even if you choose not to have children your body is still primed to procreate.” “Fasting is one of many strategies we can use for our health but it's also one we have to be conscientious about.” “The moment we feel embarrassed and shame about one thing it starts to bleed into every area.” Lisa Bilyeu “I'm not anti-carb but let's get real. We have to be honest with ourselves and examine our relationship with carbohydrates.” “Fasting is designed to be flexible, but as you are transitioning into a fasting lifestyle, [...] it's not about rigidity.” “Our physiology is what makes us unique and beautiful, we shouldn't fee like we have to apologize for it.” Follow Cynthia Thurlow: Website: https://cynthiathurlow.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/cynthiathurlow Twitter: https://twitter.com/_CynthiaThurlow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cynthia_thurlow_/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CHTWellness/ Podcast: https://cynthiathurlow.com/podcast/ Sponsors: Find your next fleece, parka, or winter jacket in-store or at thenorthface.com.

As we kick off the new year, we felt that it would be great to start with the hottest health topic going on right now: Intermittent Fasting. Especially now, right after a holiday season of excess, people are trying to right the ship and one of the best strategies out there would be to incorporate intermittent fasting. To show us the proper way to approach this lifestyle, we invited Cynthia Thurlow to the show. Cynthia is a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting and nutrition expert, and a two-time TEDx speaker. She is passionate about helping women find wellness through the healing power of nutrition and fasting.
Get ready for a fantastic long-form conversation with Dr. Joy Kong and Cynthia Thurlow! It was such a pleasure to sit down for a fire-side style, three-way chat to discuss all kinds of topics with these two powerhouse women. I'm trying to be more bold and daring as the host of the B.rad podcast, including going for some long-form, in person interviews, as I think it is the best chance to get truly breakthrough insights. This is proving to be true; throughout this conversation, I got to know Cynthia and Dr. Joy on a deeper level than remote podcast engagements where you stick to the key talking points in the guest's area of expertise. Same for going to visit Gabby Reece at her home—you connect on a deeper level and the conversation takes interesting twists and turns. This episode features some deep discussions around some pretty heavy, real topics, as Dr. Joy and Cynthia open up and share personal stories that will inspire you and get you thinking, and we also cover many important and relevant health topics. You will hear Cynthia explain how being in the hospital with complications from an emergency surgery ended up changing her life, and Dr. Joy talks about her experience growing up in a high-pressure, high expectations culture in China and how this shaped her, as well as how she maintains a healthy work-life balance today as she pursues her goals. We also spend a long time discussing the role of protein in a healthy diet and compare and contrast the different popular diets today. Cynthia Thurlow is a nurse practitioner, author of the best selling book Intermittent Fasting Transformation, a 2x TEDx speaker, and the host of Everyday Wellness Podcast. With over 20 years experience in health and wellness, Cynthia is a globally recognized expert in intermittent fasting and women's health, and her mission is to educate women on the benefits of intermittent fasting and overall holistic health and wellness, so they feel empowered to live their most optimal lives. Dr. Joy Kong is a UCLA-trained, triple board-certified physician, anti-aging and stem cell specialist, educator, and CEO. As the founder of Uplyft Longevity Center in Chatsworth, CA, she focuses her efforts on the prevention of aging, as well as chronic diseases that no one else has been able to heal. She believes that complete healing can only come from looking at the whole person - mind, body, and soul. TIMESTAMPS: The two women discuss their transformation from traditional medicine to more enlightened patient care and education. [05:43] Helping people stay well is very bad for the pharmaceutical business. [09:03] If a patient would eat properly, lower carbs and eat more protein, get good sleep, and move, they wouldn't need so many medications. [11:31] We've made it hard for people to make changes. Watch your spending habits and prioritize healthy eating. [14:05] There is much misinformation dispensed by well-meaning people that causes confusion. [17:09] How much protein should we be eating? [19:06] Muscle mass and muscle strength are the key to hanging in there a long time. [25:35] If you are a fan of fasting, it is difficult to get enough protein. [29:39] There are so many schools of thought about high carb, low carb, high fat, low fat, plant, carnivore, etc. The starting point, regardless of what school you are in, is to get rid of the crap in your diet. [32:06] Many people just get accustomed to feeling poorly. They don't know what it feels like to be healthy. [37:41] Do men and women fast differently? Women under age 35 should use caution with fasting. [38:38] What role do carbs play? It's very individual experiment. “How do I feel?” is a good monitor. [45:16] What is a good window for intermittent fasting? [55:19] All those restrictive diets, fasting, keto, low carb, etc. are in the category of stressors. We live in a very stressful society. [01:01:32] It's a constant effort to find balance. It's important to be introspective about your life, to figure out what you want, who you really are. [01:12:40] Goal setting can help envision where you want to go in the future, and imagine how it feels. If we get comfortable, we don't grow. [01:24:58] Some people are constantly giving and not advocating for themselves. [01:32:52] When people are disconnected and feel unloved, feel unworthy, they experience more negativity. [01:38:29] Set the bar really low so you can get over it and then keep raising the bar. [01:40:23] The best thing you can do as a parent is love your kids. [01:46:11] Vegetables have always been promoted as the super nutrient, however, there are many problems that can play havoc on your gut. [01:53:00] Don't obsess with the caveman example.

One of the tools I've found most helpful for people during the holiday season is intermittent fasting (IF). IF is a powerful practice that requires you eat during certain windows of time and fast the rest of the time. In other words, you don't have to change what you eat - just when. And its benefits include… Fat burning Reduced heart disease risk Improved memory Reduced caloric intake The best part? It's free, flexible and simple and you can still reap the benefits even if you don't eat perfectly. (which is why it's one of my favorite holiday tools!) To learn all about IF and its beautiful benefits check out this week's podcast with nurse practitioner and international speaker, Cynthia Thurlow. Here are some of the fascinating takeaways… The benefits of intermittent fasting Cynthia's morning routine How intermittent fasting affects hormones How to reduce your risk of reproductive cancers The morning drink that improves IF's benefits The supplements you can take while fasting Fasting benefits for mental health How to reduce cravings during fasting Why fasting might be hard for you (and how to make it easier!) How to fast with your cycle When you should not fast How much protein, fat and carbohydrates we should have each day The trigger foods you may want to monitor The hormone that makes you more insulin sensitive Why alcohol can lead to weight gain And much more! Please share this podcast with anyone you think it might help and have a wonderful, healthy, happy holiday, friends!

Episode 2096 - On this Friday show, the wonderful Cynthia Thurlow, Nurse Practitioner, joins Vinnie again, and they talk the intermittent fasting transformation, cholesterol levels and the harms of statins, hormones in women, menopause, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/intermittent-fasting-transformation-cynthia-thurlow-episode-2096 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS CYNTHIA THURLOW Cynthia is a nurse practitioner. She realized she wanted to have deep conversations with her patients about nutrition and lifestyle, so she left her job which didn't promote that. Almost simultaneously, she began talking to many women. These women, like Cynthia, had just been told that they had to accept they'd gain weight in their 40s. Cynthia wasn't satisfied with this. From here, she did a TedX Talk which went big, and wrote a book. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_Li_LyPBlc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6Dkt7zyImk She focuses on intermittent fasting in women because most resources do not focus on female physiology or hormones. Cynthia doesn't want women to feel like they must apologize for being women. INTERMITTENT FASTING TRANSFORMATION https://cynthiathurlow.com/book/ Jason Fung wrote an endorsement of the book. Many women feel slaves to their scale, to counting calories, and to their treadmill. Cynthia believes this is very destructive and wanted to figure out sustainable ways to help women feel good about themselves and be healthy. If can be a great way for women to lose and then sustain their weight. Approaching health and medicine holistically is so very important. She realized many of her patients' total cholesterol levels were very low and they were on statins. This is a marker of morbidity and health issues. For diabetics, she found that statins could really hurt. We need cholesterol for our bodies to live and build. Fasting in women, we need to lean into our physiology. For example, things are different for women during their menstrual cycles. Estrogen and progesterone are important and make a big difference.

Adjusting to Each New Phase of Life As our bodies change throughout the different phases of our lives, it is important to know how our bodies and metabolism are functioning.

Intermittent fasting is a great tool to help you move your body towards more metabolic flexibility, clean up your cells, and so much more. Find Harmony in Your Body Three of the biggest benefits of intermittent fasting when it is done right for your body are increased energy, decreased weight resistance, and boosted insulin sensitivity. However, in order to achieve these benefits, you much learn how to make intermittent fasting work for your body. Instead of apologizing or feeling ashamed because of your biology, Cynthia wants you to lean into it and learn how tremendously powerful it can be to take back control of your health.

Quotes: “I think that a lot of women come to intermittent fasting out of a desire to change body composition or lose weight. And let's be clear, that was part of my curiosity about it, but we stay for all the other benefits.” (11:11) “You really shouldn't be fearful of [perimenopause], it really should be a wakeup call to say either I am doing it right, or I am not.” (24:33) “I don't know about ya'll, but I want to be sharp as a tack until I go out. I definitely want to be one of these people who remains insulin sensitive, metabolically flexible, as healthy mitochondria as they can be, and one of the many ways to do that is to really focus in on fasting as a strategy.” (30:47) “If anyone wants you to do ‘one size fits all,' run. Literally run for the hills.” (35:36) “It's all about balance, but we aren't taught how to balance in that way. Its really honoring the cues our body is trying to communicate to us.” (43:13) In This Episode What you should know about fasting while breastfeeding (2:34) How to intermittent fast throughout the different stages of your life (13:42) Why your perimenopause symptoms are metabolically driven (22:10) The importance of talking to your provider about your health goals (36:06) Learn about the consistent hidden benefits of intermittent fasting and how to make it work for you (38:20) Resources Mentioned: Use promo code ‘podcast'' for 10% off your order at the Essentially Whole Store here Intermittent Fasting Transformation by Cynthia Thurlow Cynthia Thurlow Website Other Resources: Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube Podcast production & marketing support by the team at Counterweight Creative Related Episodes Essentially You Episode #278: Intermittent Fasting for Better Focus, Energy, and Overall Brain Function Essentially You Episode #296: Managing Menopause with Diet and Addressing Nutrient Deficines with Maryon Stewart

She did her research, and learned the science behind why IF is vital to our health. Cynthia began her own IF journey, and remarks, "IF was a love fest all at once!" Cynthia also began to incorporate IF with her patients. In 2018, Cynthia did a Ted Talk on women and IF, and it went viral. She has been awarded Health Influencer of the Year, and is highly respected in the world of IF. In this episode, Cynthia discusses how IF helps regulate hormones, such as leptin and ghrelin. She notes that there is a great deal of "fear mongering" as it comes to women and fasting. This has made her passionate in educating women on the power of IF.
