238: Reconsidering Fasting and Meal Timing

In this week’s episode we’re diving into some of the science and nuance around fasting and how to make considerations based on your stage and season of life. Here are key points we cover:

  1. Eat with the sun and The Son. Eat within the daylight hours and eat with gratitude and glory to the Lord our Savior.

  2. Try to get morning sunlight in your eyes before you eat.

  3. Eat by 10am to help support muscle protein synthesis. This becomes more important as we age in order to help counteract age-related muscle loss.

  4. Eat within the first hour of waking to help restore leptin sensitivity.

  5. Variables like coffee and exercise while fasting depend a lot on your stress levels.

Ultimately your choices are between you, your body and the Creator of your body. It’s always important to consider how we are serving the Lord in the stewardship of our bodies, how we are or aren’t honoring the needs of our bodies, and how we need to be open to how those needs may change in the different seasons and stages of our lives. I hope this week’s episode helps give you insight, information and support so that you better tap into that discernment at all levels.

236: The Benefits of Eating Daily Bread

It seems more and more lately I have been “prescribing” my friends, family and clients to eat a piece of bread every day. Not just any bread, but the bread we’ve been talking a lot about since I did the podcasts with Sue Becker: bread made from freshly milled organic wheat.

Wouldn’t you rather eat a delicious piece of buttery bread rather than take a supplement? 🙋🏼‍♀️ When bread is made with it’s nutrition in tact, it can become food-as-medicine. In this week’s episode, we’re exploring the health benefits of real wheat bread and deepening our understanding of Jesus as the Bread of Life.
