79. Fasting, Sleep & Alcohol: How They Impact HRV and Stress Levels with Dr. Torkil Færø

79. Fasting, Sleep & Alcohol: How They Impact HRV and Stress Levels with Dr. Torkil Færø

Did you know your heart rate can reveal how stressed—or how healthy—you really are?

In this episode of Functional Moms Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Torkil Færø, physician, author of The Pulse Cure, and HRV expert, to explore how tracking your Heart Rate Variability (HRV) can help you reduce stress, sleep better, and live longer.

After losing his father at 73, Dr. Torkil transformed his own lifestyle—losing 40 pounds, optimizing sleep, and breaking daily alcohol habits. He discovered that HRV is like a speedometer for your body, showing exactly how your choices—like food timing, fasting, and alcohol—affect your nervous system.

If you’re ready to take control of your stress, longevity, and sleep, this episode will teach you how to use HRV data to guide your health decisions.

What You’ll Learn:

    • What Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is and how it reveals stress levels
    • How alcohol, sleep, and fasting affect HRV and recovery
    • Why “alcohol is liquid stress” — and how it sabotages your health
    • How to optimize your HRV for longevity and energy
    • Why HRV is the single best health metric to track in 2026
