These are really important health tools that are not being discussed, but this is how we should be looking at health.

**Steven Bartlett** (0:06)
So the first thing is Dr. Mindy Pelz, the renowned health expert, is back.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:11)
And she's on a mission to empower people to take control of their health through fasting, nutrition, and lifestyle changes.

**Mindy Pelz** (0:18)
We are in a crisis of health, and your health right now may not be your fault, but it is your responsibility.

**Steven Bartlett** (0:25)
So I have questions. What is the line about the food environment?

**Mindy Pelz** (0:29)
The biggest lie is that all food is safe. There are foods that are medicine, and there are foods that will build disease.

**Steven Bartlett** (0:35)
How do we know the difference?

**Mindy Pelz** (0:36)
Learn to read an ingredient label. So the first thing I do is I...

**Steven Bartlett** (0:39)
Interesting. Are there foods that are cancer feeding?

**Mindy Pelz** (0:44)
Yep. So there's processed meats, sugar's a biggie, the toxic oils in doughnuts, juice boxes, horrific.

**Steven Bartlett** (0:51)
How important is our liver in all of this?

**Mindy Pelz** (0:52)
The most important.

**Steven Bartlett** (0:53)
Is there any symptoms of an unhealthy liver?

**Mindy Pelz** (0:56)
Yes. I call them checklists. First, you can look at the bottom of your feet.
Do you want to put it up on the table?

**Steven Bartlett** (1:01)
No, because people will sell pictures. How many times a day do you think we should be eating?

**Mindy Pelz** (1:06)
Great question. And studies show us that the longer you spend not eating, the more your body heals itself and starts to burn belly fat.

**Steven Bartlett** (1:13)
But does Zempec has a tool for achieving the same outcome?

**Mindy Pelz** (1:17)
But one of the biggest consequences we've seen is, this is why I'm such a fasting fan.

**Steven Bartlett** (1:22)
What are some of the lesser known benefits of fasting?

**Mindy Pelz** (1:24)
There's a whole bunch of them. But I'm going to say the biggest, biggest thing is...

**SPEAKER_5** (1:56)
Drop to Mindy.

**Steven Bartlett** (2:02)
Last time we sat here, the conversation we had reached more than 10 million people across YouTube and Spotify and iPlayer and airlines and everywhere. And I was looking through some of the feedback from that conversation. And there's two of these top comments that I pulled out, which I think kind of capture the impact it had on so many people. The first comment is from a lady called Anne. And she said, Dr. Mindy changed my life. I started intermittent fasting six months ago after I watched this podcast. And I've dropped 18 pounds and have never felt or looked better.
The second comment I pulled out was from a 57-year-old lady who said, going through menopause, morbidly obese, going through a lot of stress in my personal life and fasting, because of Dr. Mindy has finally saved me. I have been doing a 36-48-hour test every week to fast and it has really bolstered my confidence and I can now do really hard things.
Thank you.

**Mindy Pelz** (3:07)
There's so much on that one, that second one. I mean, that is empowerment.
Those two got empowered, but that last woman got really empowered. She did that for herself, and she knows it. As she can do hard things, she's absolutely right.

**Steven Bartlett** (3:25)
It has really bolstered my confidence, and I can now do hard things. It's not typically what you think of when you think of fasting, that it gives you confidence and the ability to do hard things in other areas of your life.

**Mindy Pelz** (3:42)
I've heard you interview guests like this, and I've heard many people talk about how easy we've made life right now. You can sit on your couch, and you don't have to get off the couch, and food will appear at your door, and you can control your TV, and you can call a friend, and there's so much you can do without even moving. Life has gotten so easy that we are losing that ability to really learn how powerful we are. And for women, with health, it's gotten even worse. So what I love about that comment is that she took the information, she applied it, she got a result.
