This episode is a continuation of intermittent fasting from episode 254 with a focus on thyroid health and weight loss. I'm breaking down whether fasting is a friend or foe for those of you grappling with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s. I’m not holding back—armed with the latest research and a deep dive into multiple studies, I’m here to give you the lowdown on how fasting can potentially rock your world, and yes, in a good way! You see, there's a lot of chatter out there, some saying fasting is a game changer and others warning it could mess up your thyroid function. So, I'm here to set the record straight. By navigating through various fasting methods—be it a 12-hour window, the 14-hour mark where the magic of autophagy kicks in, or those more extreme 16-hour fasts—I’ll guide you on how to harness fasting without tripping up your thyroid. Spoiler alert: It’s all about doing it right! Whether you’re optimized or still struggling to find balance, this episode is your roadmap to maximizing fasting benefits while safeguarding your thyroid health.
