Fasting can be an incredibly useful tool for improving the way we eat, managing weight and supporting metabolic health. But there is a big difference between simply not eating and knowing how to fast well.
Join Amanda Hamilton and Nurse Helen Moore for an in-depth, practical masterclass exploring the science of fasting, metabolic health and how to build a fasting approach that works in real life.
Rather than focusing on extreme restriction or quick fixes, Amanda and Helen will help you understand what is happening inside your body when you fast, how to choose an appropriate fasting strategy and, importantly, how to recognise when fasting may not be suitable for you.
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your metabolism and a practical framework you can use to make informed decisions about fasting, nutrition and your long-term health.
Amanda and Helen will take you beneath the headlines to understand the physiology of fasting and metabolic health.
Discover:
What actually happens in the body when you stop eating
The relationship between fasting, insulin, blood glucose and stored body fat
How fasting may influence appetite and energy regulation
The difference between metabolic flexibility and simply eating fewer calories
What we currently know about fasting, healthy ageing and longevity
Why longer fasting isn't automatically better
How meal timing and food quality fit into the bigger metabolic-health picture
The aim is to help you understand why different fasting approaches work, rather than simply giving you another set of rules to follow.
There is no single fasting schedule that is right for everyone.
We'll explore different approaches, from a simple overnight fasting window through to more structured intermittent-fasting strategies, and look at how they can be adapted around your lifestyle.
You'll learn how to think about fasting for:
Weight management
Metabolic health
Energy and appetite
Busy working days
Weekends and social occasions
Exercise and recovery
Long-term maintenance
We'll also explore the differences that can matter between men and women, including life stage and individual response, so that fasting becomes a flexible tool rather than another rigid diet.
One of the most important parts of fasting is knowing when, how and whether to fast safely. Nurse Helen Moore will provide a dedicated medical guide to responsible fasting, helping you understand the health considerations that are too often overlooked in discussions about intermittent fasting.
Helen will cover:
Who should seek medical advice before beginning a fasting programme
Situations in which fasting may be inappropriate
Medication and fasting considerations
Diabetes, blood-glucose management and hypoglycaemia risk
Blood pressure and other relevant health considerations
Hydration and electrolyte considerations
Recognising normal hunger versus symptoms that mean you should stop a fast
When fasting should be modified or discontinued
The importance of individual health history and medical supervision where appropriate
We'll finish with a live discussion and Q&A, giving you the opportunity to explore the practical and health considerations around fasting with both Amanda and Helen.
Amanda's background in print journalism and BBC broadcasting taught her the importance of detailed, meticulous research and communicating complex subjects in a way that people can actually use.
With almost 25 years of practical coaching and teaching experience and four published books, Amanda combines evidence-based education with an understanding of the challenges people encounter when trying to make meaningful lifestyle changes.
Together with Nurse Helen Moore's clinical perspective, this masterclass brings together the science, practical application and health considerations of fasting in one comprehensive session.
Come away understanding:
How fasting works.
What it can—and cannot—do.
Which fasting approaches may suit different goals.
How to fast more safely.
How to eat around your fasting window.
How to overcome the most common fasting challenges.
How fasting fits into better metabolic health.
And how to turn the science into something sustainable in everyday life.
Spaces are limited. Reserve your place today and discover how to make fasting work intelligently, safely and sustainably for you.

It is not a substitute for individual medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Fasting may not be appropriate for everyone. If you have a medical condition, take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of an eating disorder, or have concerns about whether fasting is appropriate for you, seek advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional before changing your diet or fasting routine.
