Summary

If there was a reigning expert in intermittent fasting for women, double board-certified integrative medicine doctor, Amy Shah, M.D. could very well hold the title. As a mbg class instructor with training from Cornell, Columbia and Harvard Universities, it’s no surprise she was named one of mindbodygreen's Top 100 Women In Wellness to Watch in 2015. Shah sits down with mbg Founder and Co-CEO, Jason Wachob, and explains an ideal fasting day in the busy working world, what to do if you’re struggling with your fast, and what a fasting schedule looks like for menstruating women. Tune in to find out how you can navigate the very personalized (and sometimes ambiguous) world of intermittent fasting.
