For many years, today’s guest, has been helping tens of thousands of women all around the world live healthier lives by helping them understand the key differences male and female bodies.

Dr Mindy Pelz is a renowned holistic health expert, a pioneer on the subject of women’s health and the author of several books, including the international bestseller ‘Fast Like a Girl’ and her brand new one, ‘Eat Like a Girl: 100+ Delicious Recipes to Balance Hormones, Boost Energy, and Burn Fat’.

This is Mindy’s third appearance on my podcast and our initial conversation back in 2022 was one of the most listened-to podcast episodes in the entire UK that year and I think that speaks to just how important her empowering message really is.

In this conversation, Mindy explains the importance of women understanding their unique hormonal cycles and offers profound insights on how they can live in harmony with their hormones, and find balance in our hectic modern world.

Mindy talks about how we can harness the power of food to support our body’s natural rhythms and how as a society, we can bring a more positive attitude to the challenges of peri-menopause and menopause. We also explore Mindy’s foundational five health principles.

Always passionate in her approach, Mindy embodies the importance of staying curious, adaptable and proactive and, in this episode, she highlights the importance of healthcare professionals truly listening to women's experiences but emphasises that it's ultimately us who are responsible for our own wellbeing.

While this episode primarily focuses on female health, the content within it is crucial listening for everyone. Yes, Mindy wants to provide women with powerful knowledge about their bodies but, for men, Mindy’s work provides a deeper understanding of the unique challenges that women face and helps them better support the women in their lives.

This really is a powerful conversation and Mindy’s empowering attitude reminds all of us that it's never too late to better understand our bodies and take action to improve the quality of our lives.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Ensure intake of key 24 nutrients for optimal hormone production

There are 24 specific vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, called the 'Key 24,' that women need to properly produce their hormones.

Recognize cravings as hormonal signals, not weakness

The intense craving for carbs and sugar the week before a period is a hormonal signal, not a sign of being undisciplined.

Recognize women's role as shock absorbers to address autoimmune disease risk

Citing Gabor Maté, women's higher rates of autoimmune disease may be linked to them acting as 'society's shock absorbers,' bearing a higher chronic stress load.

Treat yourself as N of 1 to discover effective health tools

Instead of pitting health experts against each other, you should treat yourself as a study of one (N of 1) and figure out which tools work for your body at different times.

Assess blood sugar stability without devices

If you feel tired, foggy, or hungry again within two hours of eating, you didn't stabilize your blood sugar, a simple test that requires no device.

Feed good microbes to transform cravings

Your gut bugs control your taste buds and cravings, so when you consciously eat to feed good microbes, your cravings for unhealthy food will change over time.

Address nutrient depletion from birth control pill use

The birth control pill depletes crucial nutrients like B vitamins, magnesium, and zinc, and alters the microbiome to block the production of antioxidants called flavonoids.

Fuel post-menopausal brain with ketones for energy

Research from Lisa Mosconi suggests the female brain becomes less receptive to glucose after menopause and is more tuned in to using ketones for energy.

Embrace perimenopause to enhance empathy and leadership in community

During perimenopause, a woman's brain reorganizes to become more empathetic and societally focused, making her a natural leader and wisdom-keeper for the community.
