Includes a 30-Day fasting reset that uses the power of your cycle—even if you no longer have one!
A go-to fasting manual created specifically to address women’s needs based on their hormones and menstrual cycle by Dr. Mindy Pelz, a well-known expert on women and fasting, whose fast-growing YouTube channel has become the destination for women who want to learn about fasting.
Are you among the many women who feel unheard and unseen by their doctors and health professionals? Have you become exhausted by the promise of quick-fix diets that only leave you disappointed? Well in Fast Like a Girl, Dr. Mindy helps you to take back control of your health by using the quickest path back to better health—fasting.
While most fasting advice has been a one-size-fits-all approach that leaves women with more questions than answers, in this book Dr. Mindy shares the proven strategies, specific protocols to use if you are trying to overcome a condition, fasting hacks, and tools that she has used to help hundreds of thousands of women thrive with their fasting lifestyles.
Dr. Mindy will teach you:
the rights steps on how to go from eating all day to intermittent fasting (13-15 hours)how to safely fast longer if you choose to do so (15-72 hours)how to time fasting according to your menstrual cycle (although if you don’t have a cycle, she has you covered)the best foods to break your fast to achieve better metabolic health
This book also includes more than 50 recipes based on the two food plans—ketobiotic and hormone feasting—she created to best support women’s hormones. And, it has recipes specifically created to break a fast such as her Coconut Cacao Chia Pudding.
Inspired by the thousands of women she has worked with who have reclaimed their health with fasting, Dr. Mindy wrote this book because, “once a woman knows how to build a fasting lifestyle around her cycle, she becomes unstoppable.”

A Must-Read for Women Looking to Master Intermittent Fasting
I love Fast Like a Girl! I have been practising fasting for years and this book has been a game-changer for me in refining my intermittent fasting (IF) practice. It provided me with invaluable insights on how to adjust fasting according to my bodyâs needs and hormonal cyclesâsomething I hadnât understood before.Pros:Tailored to Womenâs Needs: The book explains how fasting affects women differently due to our hormonal cycles. I finally understood why I struggled with fasting at certain times of the month and how to modify my approach accordingly.Practical and Science-Based Advice: The author breaks down complex concepts into easy-to-understand, science-based explanations. Itâs not just theoryâthere are actionable tips that helped me refine my fasting schedule, making it more sustainable and effective.Cycle-Specific Fasting Tips: One of the most helpful sections is the guidance on how to adjust fasting practices depending on where you are in your menstrual cycle. Itâs an eye-opener for any woman whoâs struggled with inconsistent energy levels or results during fasting.Empowering and Supportive Tone: The tone of the book is empowering and supportive, which is refreshing in the wellness space. It feels like getting advice from a knowledgeable friend who truly understands the unique needs of women.Staple Recommendation: I now recommend this book to all the women in my life, whether theyâre beginners to fasting or seasoned practitioners. Itâs a must-have resource for anyone looking to optimize their health through fasting.Cons:Not Ideal for Non-Fasting Readers: The book is primarily focused on intermittent fasting, so it may not be as useful for readers who aren’t interested in or open to fasting practices. However, for those looking to understand fasting better, it’s a fantastic guide.Fast Like a Girl is now about the staple recommendations I make to any woman looking to take control of her health and fasting practices. It helped me refine my approach to intermittent fasting and provided crucial insights into how to make fasting work with my body, not against it. Highly recommend for women seeking to burn fat, boost energy, and tailor fasting to their unique needs!

Must read for every woman!
I loved everything about this book, I only wish that it would have come out when I was a teenager!It’s a must read for women of all ages. Mindy is clear and concise in her writing and lays out all of the benefits of not only Intermittent Fasting, but extended water fasts with what’s happening in our bodies the longer we fast, the foods we should or shouldn’t be eating according to our monthly cycle in order to optimize our health and well-being and even recipes. Everything is tied into this book, even several protocols for weightloss, autoimmune, etc, and a 30 day example of how women should be fasting/eating according to their cycle, along with foods we need- and foods to avoid, to optimize and balance all of our hormones during the precise times in our cycle!And women that are post menopausal can use the 30 day fasting plan adjusted around the moon’s cycle. Brilliant! It all makes sense once you read it, and that’s why I say I wish I would have known all of this information 30 years ago. Better late than never!I’ve bought this for 5 people and one is a guy, so it’s not just for women! There’s so much for men to learn as well, not only learning about fasting for themselves to improve their health and loose weight, but about the women in their life. When men are better able to understand us in relation to our hormones, it’s a win-win for everyone.Get the book now, don’t wait…. we’ve had to wait long enough for a book of this magnitude. It’s about time someone recognized and acknowledged women can’t- and shouldn’t, be treated the same as men in relation to our health. This book is a life changer!Thank you Dr. Mindy! I’ve followed you for years–YEARS!!! But, this book literally put it all together and in one week has been life changing and I’m just getting started on this new journey! I’m so excited knowing I’m in control now and have the tools and knowledge that I’ve wanted and been searching for. I can’t praise you enough. Your heart shines in every live call, or video you put out to the universe. You are doing your purpose here on earth serving and helping so many women – and men. You deserve all the blessings coming your way! And I can’t wait for your next book! It can’t come soon enough! ððð¼ð«¶ð¼

A Must-Have Book in Every Women’s Library
I originally heard Dr. Mindy Pelz for the first time on a podcast. Her insight and passion was beyond comparison and had to find more of her resources. This book is an exceptional resource to give ANYONE a better understanding of women’s bodily changes, hormones, gut health, and overall health. She’s broken everything down into a logical progression of information, building upon her concepts throughout the book. The charts/tables in the book are helpful, and the way the book has been laid out helps for easy note-taking and scanning for future reference. She also has GREAT food suggestions–down to snacks, meals, etc. I’m early in my journey of my fasting reset, so I can’t speak to end result, but if you’re looking for a lifestyle change that works, with a competent health practitioner, you need to pick up this book.

Great Buy! Great Book!
Book arrived on-time, in NEW condition as purchased, not bent. No issues. Would re-purchase with this seller. The book & the author ( Dr. Mindy Pelz) are awesome, informative, and could really help us ladies ( esp over 40) if read and applied. Listened to the book on tape, brought for a reference GOOD STUFF

Informative & clearly represented
Itâs a good book. That said, I wish Iâd gotten the Audible version in retrospect. Why? I thought Iâd missed out on some vital drawings for information (a misnomer on my part). Iâm menopausal, not finished reading yet but very âpro-the contentsâ. This doctor seems to have a clear understanding of both women’s hormonal changes, our cycled & a clear understandable way of teaching this to others after years of studying. So with that, i recommend it.

Iâm so happy with this book! I bought her book after watching one of her videos, read it in two weeks and now Iâm on day 10 of the 30 day reset that is outlined in this book. Excellent information for any woman to apply to her daily life. This book is geared towards women who want to feel better, lose weight, and perhaps heal health issues and works on a keto-geared lifestyle with attention to our hormonal cycle. The information was so helpful to me, and as a nurse it was a great refresher in the science of how hormones work. Iâve already lost nearly 7 pounds in 10 days from applying the info of fasting, low sugar meals and exercise. I have been struggling for the last 15 years with constant weight gain despite working out at least 3 times a week with regular walking, running, and skiing and it just wasnât working. I needed to change what I ate, and fast (pun totally intended). Fasting has provided me with a clear head, and a feeling of increased productivity. I am not looking back, only forwards and feel so energetic. Honestly, there were a couple of rough days but I stuck it through. You have to expect the body to cleanse itself during the first time of fasting and with that comes some symptoms. I have tried the ketogenic diet before, approximately 4 years ago and i lost 20 pounds in a couple of months but regained it back plus more because I didnât know how and when to properly fast. Itâs difficult to think about where I could be now, had I had this book THEN! Missed knowledge then, but now that I have it today I am happy and no more struggling. I will come back in a couple of months and update.

I’ve been watching Mindy’s Youtube Channel and taking notes for the last couple of years. It’s ALL in the book. It’s great having it all in one, with a content list so you can go directly to what you need to be reminded of.I feel free and happier in my fasting lifestyle although I never thought I’d be able to do it. I thought it was a crazy idea and voilà , thanks to her tips, I am successful ⨠For no other reason but to experiment and see what you can do for your health and experience a more fulfilling lifestyle!

Love this book! I watch & follow Dr Mindy Pelz on various social platforms. This book is very popular so I had to get my own as I cannot always watch videos etc. Book is super informative on food, various fasts & their benefits along with recipes. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

This book is supported with science and research and explains you how food timing and fasting can support hormonal health, healing, detox, weight loss and mental clarity for women. Highly recommended.
