This week, our guest is Best Selling Author of WomanCode and In the FLO, ground breaker for the female Infradian Rhythm and Creator of the Cycle Syncing Method Ⓡ! 




Alisa Vitti is a trusted integrative nutritionist, "hormone whisperer", and best-selling author of WomanCode and In The Flo (Harper Collins). As a pioneer in the women’s biohacking space, Alisa has figured out why over 40% of women are struggling with hormone issues and experiencing burnout. Women are being left out of fitness, nutrition, and medical research, leading them to use popularized trends to try to help themselves, but because those solutions aren't designed for them, they are getting sick. Alisa teaches women about their second biological rhythm - the Infradian Rhythm - that governs the brain, metabolism, immune, stress, and reproductive systems - and is just as important, if not more so, than the circadian rhythm (the process that manages sleep). To support the Infradian Rhythm, Alisa created a method called The Cycle Syncing Method, which people can learn more about in her books and MyFLO app. This method teaches you how to optimize your health and life based on where you are in your 28-day cycle - what should you should eat, what type of exercise, when to have sex, and when you should schedule meetings SHOULD change based on the metabolic, cortisol, and brain chemistry changes that occur throughout the month. Basically, don't push through that HIIT workout while you're on your period.
