About this listen

“Dr. Will Cole clearly cares about his patients’ health, and he addresses the widespread misconceptions about intermittent fasting while giving readers a tailored week-by-week plan to get back in touch with what their body truly needs.” (Mark Hyman, MD, director, the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine and New York Times best-selling author of Food)

Intuitive Fasting makes both the science and user-friendly application of this exciting approach to human nutrition available for everyone.” (David Perlmutter, MD, FACN, author of number one New York Times best seller Grain Brain and Brain Wash)

The most effective and achievable guide to intermittent fasting, outlining a unique plan that merges the science behind fasting with a holistic approach to eating, from the best-selling author of Ketotarian and The Inflammation Spectrum

For some, the idea of fasting by eating only one or two meals a day sounds like an extreme and overly restrictive dieting tactic. But the truth is, our daily eating schedule - three meals a day, plus snacks - does not necessarily reflect our bodies’ natural cycles. In fact, eating three meals every day can cause metabolic inflexibility, which can lead to inflammation, fatigue, and chronic health problems. For millions of years, our bodies have actually functioned best with periodic times of fasting.

With his fresh new approach to fasting, best-selling author and functional medicine expert Dr. Will Cole gives you the ability to take control of your hunger and make intermittent fasting intuitive. You’ll get in touch with your instinctive eating patterns and become healthier and more mindful about how and when you eat. Intuitive Fasting will show you how to find metabolic flexibility - and once you’ve reached it, you can trust your body to function at optimal capacity, whether you’ve eaten six minutes ago or six hours ago.

During his 4-Week Flexible Fasting Plan, Dr. Cole will guide you through varying intermittent fasting windows, with each week of the plan tailored to focus on a different aspect of your health. He illustrates the most effective ways to fast and eat to amplify the health benefits of intermittent fasting, balancing rest and repair with clean, nutrient-dense, delicious foods. By the end of the four weeks, you will have all the tools necessary to:

  • Reset your body
  • Recharge your metabolism
  • Renew your cells
  • Rebalance your hormones

Along with more than 65 recipes, you’ll also find a maintenance plan, so you can adapt fasting and feeding windows to work sustainably with your lifestyle.

*This audiobook includes a PDF containing meal plans and recipes.

Critic reviews

Intuitive Fasting is Will’s clear four-week program designed to set you up to feel your best for all the other weeks to come.... It’s full of what he’s learned about reducing inflammation, restoring balance, recharging metabolism, and resetting gut health.” (Gwyneth Paltrow, founder and CEO of goop)

“Intermittent fasting can be practiced in many ways, but the superior way is to let nature dictate the rules. Fortunately, there are doctors that have tapped into this wisdom. Dr. Will Cole is heading this movement, and this book is the perfect way to get you started.” (Alejandro Junger, MD, New York Times best-selling author of Clean Gut)

“If you’re looking for a way to recalibrate your body’s hunger signals, rebalance your cravings, and comfortably and safely learn how to fast, Intuitive Fasting is a must-read. Dr. Will Cole makes intermittent fasting accessible for everyone, encouraging vibrant health and wellness.” (Elle Macpherson)

Balanced, reasonable approach

I’m so glad I found this book. It’s been disappointing to see so much shaming and criticism of this title,especially from those who haven’t even read it! I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease 2 years ago and intermittent fasting has drastically improved my disease symptoms. I’m excited to introduce more aspects of Dr. Cole’s model and see the impacts on my gut health and overall well-being.

An Intuitive Read

This is the 3rd book I have read by doctor Will Cole, each one builds upon the previous, you could just start with this 1 and read the other 2 afterwards and be well educated

Insightful read/listen

This is a great book to learn about your body and learn how to reduce the amount of carbs/sugars that our culture is now use to eating daily. The reviews that left one star and wrote about how this book promotes deprivation of certain food is completely not true! Everyone can indulge in the foods we love like pizza, cake, pastas etc… but everything in moderation. It doesn’t take common sense to realize that eating a bowl of fettuccine or pizza & high carb foods isn’t the best thing to do for yourself on a daily. This book simply prepares on how to wing off all the high carb foods that we are use to eating too often. I love it and it takes self awareness to understand what you are doing wrong in your routine that is not giving you the results you ultimately want.

Oh the benefits you will reap!!

There have been some doubters, shamers, nay-sayers posting reviews about this book. Happy to see that the majority of them have been called out for not even having read the book!!
Just the idea of fasting, especially in the American culture, is daunting. Dr. Cole breaks EVERYTHING down in layman's terms, so even the high-level science aspects are easy to comprehend. We Americans have a snack addition, and it is literally killing usI Do just a little research on how countries all over the world eat, and you will understand how addicted we are to packaged foods and refined sugars. We are our own worst enemy.

If you bought the physical copy of the book, great! You can read it and have the recipes and nutrient breakdowns right there at your fingertips. I do invite you to listen to the audible version that he narrates himself. At the risk of sounding corny, you can feel the conviction in his voice that this lifestyle is neither scary nor difficult and, most importantly, that it can be personalized for everyone based on their limits, existing conditions, and goals.
Whatever your health goals are, there are so many proven benefits to letting your body/your gut heal itself through autophagy. This plan is exactly what it says: flexible! Try it before you shame it!

Such a great wealth of information

I just adore Dr Cole! This book has such a great wealth of information on how to reset your metabolic flexibility. He gives such detailed information about pathways and the science. I love that he always address is the mind and the spiritual connection to the body. I especially like the in-depth discussion of the various types of tea and their benefits.

Amazing guide to a better you!

I like that this book is informative and is a GUIDE, and not a rule-book. And I like the flexibility of this way of eating and LIVING. I listed to the book through audible and already want to listen to all of it again. Just amazing. Thank you Dr. Cole.

Great Book

Dr. Will Cole has high energy, is well-spoken, and comes off enthusiastic about what he is saying.

The nutritional information is presented in a generalized manner but that worked for me. For example he often says "A study showed" with no further info or details on the source or study.

Some that are being critical of the book come off as they did not read the book.

For example he discusses how this plan is so similar to keto so why not just call it keto. His response to that was well received and I love how he gives the standard or best approach but also how flexible this plan really is.
