In this episode, Ashley, Sarah & Kathleen delve into the Minnesota Starvation Experiment, focusing on the impact of under-eating on the heart's ability to function. They discuss how energy availability affects cardiovascular health, the risks associated with re-feeding, and the physiological changes observed in the heart, including EKG alterations. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding these changes to navigate recovery safely and effectively. ____________________________________________________ Make sure to check out all the other episodes in the 'Minnesota Starvation Experiment series' here... https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLalvruAE7sWrmVNBrwNAq2P9QSXkerexc ____________________________________________________ JOIN WAITLIST TO WORK 1:1 WITH KATHLEEN https://forms.gle/6TcHdrskCgsj1iDL6 ____________________________________________________ Follow Kathleen Substack: https://stewartk.substack.com/?r Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recoen/ ☕️ Buy Kathleen A Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/recoen Patreon: ____________________________________________________ Subscribe To The Rooted In Resilience Podcast: ⭐ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCSpofOL75STGMvUUlD5em7g ⭐ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3NTIxm2iqgIdnqI2j2FICr?si=477cfb0440fe40ce ⭐ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rooted-in-resilience/id1663060063 ____________________________________________________ Keep Up With Us! 🖥️ Website: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/ 🗞️ Newsletter: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/newsletter-signup 👩🏼‍🌾 Our Farm CoOp, Nourish: https://nourishcooperative.com/ {The highest quality food you can find, delivered directly to your door.
