#933: Dr. David Jockers - How Fasting Heals the Body — Fat Loss, Energy, Brain Health & Longevity

In today’s episode, we sit down with Dr. David Jockers to unpack the science behind intermittent fasting, metabolic flexibility, mitochondria, research bias, and why women need a more nuanced approach to fasting. We dive into blood sugar regulation, cortisol, growth hormone, GLP-1, autophagy, protein intake, feast-famine cycling, and how fasting can support fat loss, energy, gut health, and brain performance — when it’s done the right way. If you’ve ever wondered whether fasting is good or bad for women (especially in perimenopause), this conversation will bring clarity, context, and actionable guidance you can use right away. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

In this powerful interview with Dr. Chris Turnpaugh, we unpack what really happens when the immune system gets stuck in a chronic loop — and why so many women stay sick even after gut protocols, detoxes, antibiotics, antivirals, and “kill stacks.” We break down TH1 vs TH2 dominance, immune tolerance, microglial priming, mitochondrial burnout, perimenopause-triggered dysregulation, and why real healing requires restoring immune balance — not just treating symptoms or chasing pathogens. If you’ve felt “stuck,” sensitive to everything, or trapped in relapse cycles…this episode is your roadmap back to resilience.

Women are being put on hormones without anyone fixing the root problems — and it’s wrecking their results. In this episode, we break down The 10 Commandments of HRT so you can avoid hormone chaos, wasted money, and feeling worse instead of better. We cover why progesterone MUST be paired with estrogen, why “start low and slow” matters, how testosterone impacts metabolism and mood, and why metabolic health, gut health, and liver detoxification are non-negotiable before and during HRT. If you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or considering hormone therapy — this episode is your roadmap. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

Too many women are stuck in the endless testing loop — GI Maps, DUTCH tests, mineral panels, stool tests — but still don’t feel any better. In this episode, we break down why more testing isn’t better when there’s no strategic plan, why results often contradict symptoms, and how real healing happens through a phased, root-cause process instead of supplement stacks and protocol hopping. If you’ve spent money on labs but still feel bloated, fatigued, inflamed, or confused…this conversation will be a game-changer. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two of the most misunderstood women’s health conditions—and most women are never given real answers. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, we break down the key differences between endometriosis and adenomyosis, why imaging often misses them, and why symptoms like painful periods, pain with sex, bowel pain, heavy bleeding, clots, and infertility are often dismissed or misdiagnosed. We dive into the real root causes: chronic inflammation, immune dysfunction, estrogen metabolism issues, poor bile flow, gut dysbiosis, genetic predispositions, and environmental hormone disruptors. You’ll learn why estrogen levels alone don’t tell the full story, how detox pathways matter more than dominance, and what actually helps reduce symptom severity. If you’ve been told “everything looks normal” but your body says otherwise—this episode is for you. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

Insulin resistance isn’t just about carbs, sugar, or calories—and if you’re doing “everything right” but still struggling with weight loss, fatigue, or blood sugar issues, this episode explains why. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz and Becca break down 9 core contributors to insulin resistance that almost no one is testing for: nutrient deficiencies, liver dysfunction, chronic stress, mitochondrial burnout, estrogen dominance, potassium depletion, mold and mycotoxins, circadian rhythm disruption, and leaky gut–driven inflammation. You’ll learn how insulin resistance actually develops, why fasting and under-eating often make it worse, and how blood sugar issues are deeply connected to your liver, hormones, immune system, and cellular energy—not willpower. If weight loss feels impossible, your labs “look normal,” or you’re stuck in fatigue, cravings, or stubborn inflammation, this episode will change how you look at metabolic health. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?

Healing isn’t about motivation—it’s about discipline. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz and Becca break down why the most successful people in health, business, and life aren’t the ones who “feel ready,” but the ones who keep showing up anyway. We talk about resilience, overthinking, stress, nervous system dysregulation, healing seasons, and why mindset matters just as much as protocols. You’ll learn how discipline applies to workouts, nutrition, hormone balance, gut health, chronic illness, and long-term healing—and why quitting is usually the biggest setback. If you’re stuck, burned out, bloated, exhausted, or frustrated that healing feels harder than it should, this episode will shift how you think about progress. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?
