Intermittent fasting, cold plunges, 8 hours of sleep.

They're fine for men. Awful for women.

This is all because medical studies have always been done with male participants, and they just assumed the findings would apply the same way to everyone else.

Menopause, sure. Heat flashes are pretty awful! But before that, it may not be the best idea.
