🚫 Why Intermittent Fasting Can WRECK Your Hormones🚫
Intermittent fasting is everywhere…
But for many women, especially if you’re over 35 OR dealing with hormonal imbalances, it can do more harm than good.
Here’s why 👇🏼
❌ It raises cortisol (stress hormone)
❌ It worsens insulin resistance in some women
❌ It disrupts thyroid function
❌ It can stop ovulation & delay periods
❌ It increases cravings, fatigue & binge eating
❌ It slows metabolism instead of boosting it
If you’ve noticed:
• weight gain despite eating less
• belly fat that won’t move
• anxiety or irritability
• poor sleep
• missing or irregular periods
👉🏼 Intermittent fasting may be the reason.
Women’s hormones thrive on safety, consistency, and nourishment — not constant stress on the body.
✨ This doesn’t mean fasting is always bad
✨ It means it’s not one-size-fits-all
✨ And for many women, it’s the wrong tool
Your body isn’t broken.
It’s responding to stress.
