"I chose to become an IF:45 coach because I wanted to learn how to fast properly for my changing perimenopausal body first. I'm a much more effective teacher after I've experienced something and so inderstanding the ins and outs of fasting through first hand guidance and experience with Cynthia Thurlow was amazing. The course is thoughtful, thorough and not drawn out with lots of fluff. The modules cover more than the basics and upon completion we're armed with tons of references and tools to get started with guiding our own IF:45 clients and groups. I highly recommend it."

-Sunny Neale

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner | Specialist in Women's Hormonal Wellness

"IF:45 has taught me the foundational basic principles of intermittent fasting upon which I have begun building a new solid wellness strategy. It has inspired me to become a coach and help people improve their health and wellness in a meaningful way. As an IF45 coach I love showing people the flexibility that IF provides, making it a lifetime strategy that adapts to their changing circumstances."

-Tanya Fischer

Registered Pharmacist

"Cynthia is a wealth of knowledge. Going through her IF:45 certification course, I learned a great deal about hormones, markers of aging, and how intermittent fasting helps us optimize our health. The program also gave me the knowledge of what makes clean fasting easier and more sustainable."

-Sheri Price

Where Did IF:45 Stem From?

If this is the first time we've met, well hello! I'm Cynthia Thurlow. Not that long ago I was right there with you... I left a successful Nurse Practitioner job to work 1:1 with clients and help them in their health journey utilizing a variety of strategies, including intermittent fasting and lifestyle based medicine. 

 

Fairly quickly, I realized that working 1:1 with clients was not sustainable for the present and loving mother, and wife I wanted to be. 

 

Most, if not all, of my female clients had the same issues, concerns and goals and it became evident that creating a program to meet their unique needs made complete sense. This is when IF45 was born!

The IF:45 Program is Your Key to Uncapped Income and Impact

Since then, I became an intermittent fasting and nutrition expert, two-time TEDx speaker, author, and podcaster. I am passionate about helping women find wellness through the healing power of nutrition and fasting. I believe it is possible to feel better tomorrow than you do today and want to equip women around the world to experience that freedom! 

 

I’ve been able to create a multiple six-figure business by teaching the practice of fasting and today you have the opportunity to add the IF:45 program to your current business. I created it as a business-in-a-box so that neither your income, nor  your impact are capped.

"IF:45 is THE essential course for women to learn about their health and well being with a transformational plan that allows for customization to reach realistic and sustainable life goals. Cynthia is a master of the interplay between female hormones, health and the intermittent fasting lifestyle."

-Mary Moriarty

MBA RN | Director of Nursing Continuing Education and Professional Development

"I love Cynthia's IF-45 Program! As I began to search the intermittent fasting space Cynthia was the first person I came across that actually addressed women specifically. It was such a relief to understand why some of the methods that I had been using weren't working for me. When I learned that she was offering a training course for the program I signed right up."

-Tandi Hechler

Registered Nurse | Board Certified by AHNCC as a Nurse CoachNurse Coach

"The IF:45 coaching program did an excellent job teaching me the science behind fasting and how it supports women's health. After completing the training, I was able to use the information to better serve my clients because I understood how the food they are consuming (and when they are consuming it) works with a woman's unique biological makeup. The training left me feeling better prepared to provide support and coaching for my clients (women over 40)."

-Katie Dea
