DR. MINDY PELZ
About this episode

Dr. Mindy delves into the science of fasting and explores the incredible benefits your body experiences during a 72-hour fast. In this episode, you will learn about the two metabolisms, the sugar burner and fat burner systems, and how your body transitions between them. Discover how fasting can lead to mental clarity, gut repair, decreased inflammation, hunger suppression, deep ketosis, and even a rejuvenated immune system through the activation of stem cells. 

Stay tuned to the end of the episode when Dr. Mindy answers listener questions about muscle loss, how to break a fast safely, and the benefits of a shorter fast.
