Fasting for women during monthly cycle

Edited

We’ve found that there’s a lot of confusion and controversy around fasting for women, especially in relation to their monthly cycles. Based on our experience, there are two primary approaches:

  • If you’re new to fasting, it’s often helpful to start your fast either significantly before or immediately after your cycle.

  • If you are experienced with fasting, many have found they can begin at any point during their cycle and manage the shifts more easily.


What Happens During Fasting:

In the first three days of fasting, the body transitions from burning sugar and carbohydrates to using fat and ketones for energy.
This transition:

  • Elevates detoxification

  • Affects hormone levels and blood sugar regulation

  • Places a heavier load on the liver and other detox organs

In today’s world, most people are navigating some level of chronic dehydration.
Dehydrated fascia can create compression of meridians, organs, and the pelvic floor, which elevates stress hormones and drives systemic inflammation.


What We've Observed Works Well:

1. Support Hydration and Mineralization

We've seen significant improvement when people increase their intake of:

  • Diatomaceous Earth (for silica and GI support)

  • Irish Sea Moss (for replenishing essential minerals)

2. Daily Movement to Reduce Stress

We've consistently observed that women who integrate these Fascial Maneuvers daily, especially during their cycles, experience reduced stress and compression:

  • Lower Reset Routine — shown to lower systemic stress by 75–90% within the first 15 minutes, relieving pelvic floor and uterine pressure
    (Practiced twice per day during cycles)

  • Psoas Release — shown to reduce tension in the bladder, uterus, and pelvic floor
    (Practiced 2–3 times per day)

Creating more space in the lower body helps ease the body's adaptation to hormonal and energetic shifts during fasting.


3. Energy and Blood Sugar Support

Many have found that using Fascial Fuel helps:

  • Induce ketogenesis within 35–40 minutes

  • Maintain ketosis for 4–6 hours

  • Regulate blood sugar naturally

  • Reduce fasting stress

Fascial Fuel can be taken along with the 28-Day Reset supplements without breaking the fast, offering strong support through the more intense phases of fasting and detoxification.


In Summary:

  • Support hydration with minerals like silica and trace elements

  • Move daily to release compression and reduce physical and emotional stress

  • Support blood sugar and energy shifts with tools like Fascial Fuel if accessible

  • Honor your body’s signals and allow your healing to unfold with awareness and consistency

We've seen incredible results when people combine hydration, fascia decompression, emotional release, and mindful fasting practices.
Healing is about returning the body to its natural state of flow—not forcing it.
