[0:00] Dr Mindy’s Perspective on Why Healthcare is Broken
Dr Mindy describes the current healthcare system as identifying the symptoms, creating a diagnosis, and then prescribing a pill
If a women patient goes to a doctor, it is crucial to identify the root cause first before issuing a medication instead of providing a generalized solution
Dr Mindy believes that a woman’s menstrual cycle should be factored into the overall healthcare
Women’s mood shifts before and during their menstrual cycle are being villainized
[12:44] Why Are We Sick? The Main Themes That Dr Mindy Discovered
Our food intake and modern toxicity are some of the reasons why we are sick
Stress-eating work against our hormonal cycle
The thrifty-gene hypothesis proposes that humans who were able to survive long periods without food were due to the thrifty gene that allowed them to move into ketosis at a much quicker rate
[17:03] We Got The Diet Culture Wrong! Here’s Why
Metabolic switching helps the body to get the required energy it needs depending on the situation; the key is the constant in and out
People always look for “absolutes” in healthcare, but the body doesn’t respond well to those absolutes
[30:23] What Happened to Dr Mindy When She Started Fasting?
Dr Mindy discovered that cycling in and out of fasting assisted her in alleviating her menopausal symptoms
Progesterone needs more glucose. If you want to maximize estrogen, keep your blood sugar down
If you want to have a healthy ovulation, work on the microbiome and the liver, and you don’t want to go deep into ketosis
Plan your diet in various phases, power phase, manifestation phase, and nurture phase
[37:38] We Have a Hormonal Literacy Problem! How Do We Fix It?
Dr Mindy spoke to thousands of doctors and found out that only a handful of them understood the underlying facets of hormones in our bodies
Teenage girls should be taught early on about the emotional, physical, and chemical stress
The language of hormones should be brought back because it helps control our mood, energy, and sleep. It helps control how we gain and lose weight.
[50:58] Do You Have an Eating Disorder? Here Are Some Precautions YOU Should Know Before Fasting!
If you have an eating disorder, you need to work with a health coach or your psychologist who has a deep understanding of fasting
Fasting is done best when done with the community
The strength of your marriage and the quality of your friendship plays an important role in living a healthier life and happiness
[58:47] Diet Failed Us! Why Understanding the Glycemic Index Matters
Fast Like A Girl Book has an extensive discussion about failed diet strategies, one of them is the glycemic index
You can search online for the GCM of something, but the most accurate way would be to have a CGM or blood sugar reader to have a full view of how much glucose your body is taking in
Different foods have different glycemic impacts, and understanding that is important if you want to achieve a healthier body
