If your goal is to:
- Improve your energy, both for your physical activities and life in general
- Keep or gain muscle to stay strong and keep your metabolism revving
- Sleep better
- Not feel like an angry parrot deprived of food
Here’s the “secret” to getting there: eat a satisfying diet (both in quantity and taste) that supports your goals.
Keto, fasting, small meals, Atkins, ultra-high carb, high-altitude-food-grown-on-sand diets might work.
But every body is different. And to say that one diet works for every woman is a hyperbole if there ever was one.
Still, the best diet for you will likely revolve around these three pillars:
- Eat enough protein (around 1.2g per kg)
- Eat a metric shit ton of vegetables and fruit (8 or more fist-sizes per day is ideal. But start with what feels doable)
- Adjust alcohol and caffeine intake to whatever makes you feel the best.
Once you have those pillars in the ground, experiment with carb/fat ratios, meal times, and spacing to see what hits the mark.
