How Women Should Really Use Keto with Thomas Hemingway, M.D.

How Women Should Really Use Keto with Thomas Hemingway, M.D.

Author: Leanne Vogel April 14, 2026 Duration: 57:33

I was recently interviewed by Dr. Thomas Hemingway on the Unshakeable Health podcast and the conversation was too good not to share with you. We talk about keto for women, metabolic flexibility, fasting, hormones, and how to actually use nutrition in a way that works with your body. I also share my story of losing my cycle for eight years, how keto helped restore my hormones, and why I no longer believe strict keto is the long term answer for everyone. We discuss carb cycling, fasting around your cycle, metabolic flexibility, and why the diet that works for you today may not be the diet you need forever.
