Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast. The weekly podcast where Dr. G gives you the tools you need to boost your health and live your healthiest life.

Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast. All too often women's health issues are misdiagnosed, dismissed as something less critical or chalked up as a normal part of aging.

And unfortunately, many women in particular go years or even their entire lifetimes, left in the dark when it comes to how to best support their health.

That's why today I brought on Cynthia Thurlow, a time-controlled eating advocate, nurse educator and nurse practitioner, who is empowering women across the globe to live their most vibrant, healthy lives.

Cynthia is also the author of the book, Intermittent Fasting Transformation, the 45-day program for women to lose stubborn weight, improve hormonal health and slow aging.

And in just a minute, Cynthia and I will dive into some of these unique health issues women face and why they should not be following all the same health advice as men.

We'll also share how you can use time-controlled eating and other powerful health techniques to help lose stubborn fat, slow the effects of aging and gain back your energy.

So don't go away whether you're a man or a woman. This is an episode everyone will benefit from. We'll be right back.

Cynthia, welcome to the show. It's great to have you.

Thank you. It's really I've been looking forward to this conversation and reconnecting with you.

You know, unlike myself who still sees patients six days a week, you decided to step back from clinical medicine because you wanted to have a bigger impact.

Tell us more. In fact, what point in your story and your story is so compelling?

Did you embark on what you're doing now? Let's start with that.

Yeah, it's a great question. I think for me, I probably was practicing as a nurse practitioner.
