[00:25] About Cynthia Thurlow
Cynthia started as a nurse in ER medicine – she is a total adrenaline junkie. Then, Cynthia worked with cardiology. When Cynthia became a parent, she found her child had eczema. This led Cynthia to learn more about nutrition.
Cynthia recommends The Unhealthy Truth: One Mother's Shocking Investigation into the Dangers of America's Food Supply-- and What Every Family Can Do to Protect Itself.
Cynthia started to think if she was happy with writing prescriptions. Truthfully, she wasn’t happy.
When Cynthia started to study nutrition, she finally felt like she found her calling.
Four years ago, Cynthia woke up and realized she was done with traditional medicine and gave her notice the same day.
Cynthia wants to make a larger impact on her own terms. Frankly, she was tired of people telling her what to do. Now, she is doing exactly what she is supposed to do.
[06:40] Why Cynthia Recommends Intermittent Fasting
People have been conditioned to believe that they need to eat in the morning. However, our bodies are not designed to be eating all day long.
When we are going against convention, we need the confidence to say BS.
The cereal companies will benefit when they convince us that we need to eat breakfast garbage.
Our bodies are designed to fast, feast, and fast again.
Snacking is making us fat.
[11:50] How To Stabilize Your Blood Sugar
Each meal needs to have protein and healthy fats first.
Carbs should be the non-processed variety.
We have to stabilize our blood sugar first.
Bacon, eggs, and avocado is a great example of fat-filled breakfast.
If you are hungry within an hour of eating, your macros are off.
Once you get your blood sugar stable, then you can move onto the concept of fasting.
If you can’t sleep through the night, then you can’t lose weight. Also, if you are stressed, then you can’t lose weight.
If a woman starts losing their period because of a fast, then the fast is too much for their body.
[15:30] The Best Benefits of Fasting
Mental clarity is Cynthia’s favorite benefit of fasting. She likes to know that she has loads of energy.
The improved digestive process is Cynthia’s second favorite benefit.
Lastly, the benefits of autophagy are fantastic.
People are attracted to fasting because of weight loss; however, they find out that they feel so much better too.
[17:20] Why We Need to Focus on Our Inner Work
Inner work is what keeps us sane.
We need to be aware of limiting beliefs, our negative thoughts, and where our energy is going.
“Our thoughts become our actions.” -Cynthia Thurlow
Mindset is the most important thing that we possess.
[21:20] How to Build a Mental Six-Pack
You need high-quality sleep in a cold, darkroom.
Physical activity in the morning is critical.
Cynthia enjoys drinking tea – it is beneficial for boosting autophagy.
What are you going to do for your brain? Cynthia is always listening to a book or listening to a podcast.
Coldwater therapy will also assist with your mental six-pack.
[25:20] How to Build Confidence
Building confidence requires being in tune with your passions.
Take time each day to be inspired by other people.
Creating a plan will help with your confidence.
Cynthia says the best investments she has made in her business are the big-ticket ones.
Sometimes you just have to leap.
