McPherson describes how managing his thyroid and adopting intermittent fasting since 2018 dramatically improved his energy, reduced inflammation, and lifted brain fog and low mood. He outlines his typical regimen — an ~8-hour eating window about five days a week, flexible timing based on hunger, and taking weekends off — and encourages patients and viewers to consider trying intermittent fasting.

Chapters

You know what I seriously think changed my energy more than anything, aside from getting my thyroid in order, that still to this day, if I didn't have it in my life, I would suffer literally every single day. And it's free, it's available to everyone, and it's intermittent fasting. So my body would be so incredibly backlogged with inflammation that I would be foggy, worn down, depressed, everything. Like even if I don't intermittent fast for a couple weeks, I'm exhausted. So truly, truly, don't underestimate the power of it. My intermittent fasting regimen is literally, I try to eat in an eight hour window. That window is not necessarily the same every day. I only do that about five days a week. And I also listen to my body. So if I wake up and I'm hungry, I eat breakfast. That won't be my fasting day or I'll wrap up my fast a little bit earlier than I normally would. I usually take weekends off and I've done this since2018. I love it and it's completely radically changed my whole life. So I encourage my patients to do it all the time. It might be worth trying to.
