Unlocking the Power of Intermittent Fasting: A Game-Changer for Women's Health
In this TEDx talk, Cynthia Thurlow, a Western medicine trained nurse practitioner and functional nutritionist, delves into the topic of intermittent fasting, especially its impact on women's health.
She emphasizes that two-thirds of women aged 40-59 are overweight, with over half being obese. Intermittent fasting emerges as a potential solution, not only aiding in effective weight loss but also bringing about profound changes in bio-physical profiles.

Thurlow's passion for female hormonal health shines through as she discusses the power of food and nutrition as invaluable tools in one's health and wellness journey. While she offers a unique perspective on intermittent fasting, she also cautions viewers to consult medical professionals before adopting such a regimen.
