I'm on a modified olive oil fast right now. So, if you're watching this video, you've obviously heard about intermittent fasting. You most likely have tried it, might have tried to implement it, and as you know, it can be a little bit challenging. Actually, it's not the easiest thing in the world, but for some people, it has absolutely amazing benefits. But for other people, they kind of struggle. The cortisol goes up, thyroid has some issues, digestion feels funky, brain fog, lethargy, crappy sleep, zero sex drive, all sorts of issues. The protocol I'm going to share with you guys today, though, it literally eliminates every single one of those issues, is easier to do than intermittent fasting, and it doubles the autophagy that you're having on a daily basis, which is the entire point of intermittent fasting anyway. [applause] [cheering] deeper autophagy, less visceral fat, less inflammation, just a healthier digestion and better hormones. This provides an easier route to that. So, here's what I'm going to cover in today's video specifically. Number one, why modified EVO fasting over intermittent fasting. There are some specific reasons. Number two, I'm going to go step by step through the protocol. It's very straightforward. Pretty much anyone can do it. And number three, there are some things to avoid and some common mistakes that you just do not want to make. Um, so let's jump right in.
For those of you who are new to this channel, hello and welcome. My name is Rob Stewart. I'm a skin health expert and coach. I've worked with over 3,000 people over the last decade, helping them naturally heal their eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and rosacea in as little as 3 to 6 months. And it is my pleasure to be here with you guys today. If you need help with your skin, if you need help with your holistic health, you're in the right place.
So, I touched on this on the intro a little bit, but what makes this protocol, EVO, modified fasting, better than intermittent fasting? Well, it's it's really quite simple. It doubles your autophagy. The olive oil has a compound in it that turns off mtorin spikes empk which brings your autophagy levels through the roof. That in and of itself should be the whole video. [music]
If you've intermittent fasted before, you've definitely dealt with hunger. And not that that's big of a deal. You get a little hungry, you deal with it, and then then you get to finally eat uh during your eating window. And it's it's so satisfying and great. But the problem is is that for some people that eating window you have to take in too many calories to compensate for your entire day of not eating and it gets a little rough on the digestion. Then on top of that, you were hungry all day. So you're hungry all day then you eat a huge meal and then your digestion is a little messed up. With olive oil fasting, intermittent fasting protocol like this one, you have zero hunger and it's much easier to regulate your caloric intake throughout the day so that you hit that sweet spot. With olive oil fasting, there's zero brain fog. Blood sugar is stable. It's deeply anti-inflammatory. And for me, here's the thing. When I fast and intermittent fast, many times my sex drive gets negatively affected. My female clients experience the same thing almost across the board. All of my female clients who fast and intermittent fast on a regular basis end up having hormonal issues. When we put them on an olive oil fast, boom, those issues are absolutely taken away. And like I said, they get all of the benefits of intermittent fasting anyway. So, it's kind of a no-brainer.
Now, number two, the protocol. It could not be simpler. So, if you know about intermittent fasting, you basically know how to do this protocol. With intermittent fasting, you pick a feeding window, be it 2:00 or 4:00 or whatever you want to start your eating, and you usually put it about a 4hour window. I used to like my intermittent fasting window at 3:00. So, from 3 until about 6:30, that's when I was eating my food for the day. So, you pick whatever window you want. And up into that window, all you do is take little sips or tablespoons of olive oil when you're hungry. It's that simple. Let's say that your eating window is at 6:00. You're a normal normal intermittent fasting person. 6:00 eating dinner with your family. You're going to create a delicious, healthy meal. So, up until 6:00, starting when you start to get hungry in the morning, take a tablespoon or two of the extravirgin olive oil. Make sure it's high quality. Then as your day goes on and you start to feel that hunger come up again, then take a swig of olive oil or take another tablespoon or two and continue doing that throughout the day. It is literally that simple.
Now, there are some things to consider. The timing of your eating window is extremely important. There's a reason why I put mine at 3:00. You put your eating window earlier in the day. It gives your body more time to digest all of your solid food before you go to bed, which enhances autophagy and helps sleep. Problem is is that if you have your meal too early in the day and by the time you go to bed, you're starving. I don't sleep good when I'm starving. And if you're not sleeping good, then you're not having any autophagy or health anyway. So, it kind of becomes a mood point. Here's what I do. If my eating window is at three and I get hungry after my eating window, then I just go back to taking little sips of the olive oil and satisfying myself and then bing bang boom, I got the best of both worlds. Now, other people will just find it way easier to put their eating window at the very beginning of or excuse me, at the very end of the day, eat a big dinner with their family, make it healthy, make it nutritious, and then it's just easier for their normal timing. And that's that's perfectly good. Now, the third option is the weird one, and I do have clients who do this and swear by it. They do their meal first thing in the morning, big freaking breakfast, and then what they do is then they use the olive oil protocol for the rest of the day until bed. I've tried it all three ways. Personally, like I said, I like my eating window around 3 4:00. Um, second best, I like nighttime eating. Third best, I like the morning eating. But I swear you should try the morning eating at least once because it's super interesting and some of my clients really swear by it.
Real quickly before I get into number three, the things to avoid and the common mistakes which you're not going to want to miss because there is a way to screw this up pretty easily. But did you guys know that most, this is scary, of the olive oil that is sold in the United States, it might not even be pure olive oil. Most likely it's a mix of seed oils and crap. How do you know if you're getting proper olive oil? Here's the thing. You want your olive oil to come in glass or tin. You want your olive oil to have only one country of origin. So, if it's Italian olive oil, it should only say Italy on it. If it's from Greece, it should only say Greece. If it's from California, only California. No mixed country, no mixed blends. The taste of the olive oil should have a a little teeny bit of spice to it. A little bit of teeny spice. That's the compound that turns off the mtor and spikes. And lastly, don't get it in plastic, my friends. Real olive oil producers do not put their quality olive oil in plastic. Think about it. If you're drinking and eating olive oil that's in plastic, the fats will boom, just suck the microplastics into it, and you're just going to be drinking microplastic soup. I'm going to have dinner [music] tonight at probably 4:30 or 5, and I'm drinking green tea. Just before I shot this video, I did two swings of olive oil. It's about noon, so it's still early in the day, but I'm feeling top-notch. Happy to be here with you guys. Let's get into number four. Let me sip some green tea first, though. Excuse me.
Number three. There is no number four today. These are things that you want to avoid and common mistakes. You guys might have already picked up on number one, which is the most obvious. Maybe if you drastically under drink or eat the olive, you're just not going to get the benefits from it. If you just take one little sip and that's it for the whole day, it's not going to happen. 500 calories, 400 calories, you know, 3 to four tablespoons, maybe a few sips throughout the entire day, that's where to do it. On the other hand, olive oil is super nutrient and calorically dense. Super. So, if you drink too much of it, you're going to you're going to get fat. It's got a lot of calories, so don't overdo it. If you drastically or even a little bit overdrink the olive oil and your calories start going too high, the autophagy and the detoxification aspects of this intermittent fasting style protocol are just non-existent. So, make sure you're not eating too much and make sure you're not eating too little. Find that little sweet spot for yourself. The way I do it is really simple. When I'm hungry, I drink just a teeny bit of olive oil. Then I'm not hungry anymore. Then when I get hungry again, I just repeat until it's time for my dinner. If I get hungry after my dinner because my feeding window is early, then I repeat. Really easy.
And here is the last and final aspect of the video that is going to be a little bit bigger conversation than just you got to avoid this. I kind of got to put on my veteran hat, my grandpa hat, my dad hat, my brother hat, and talk to you guys like face to face like the real men and awesome women that you are. If you're trying to heal yourself, whether it's hormonal, whether it's your gut biome, whether it's your immune system, whether it's your autonomic nervous system and things like eczema, dermatitis, rises, and rosacea, and your diet isn't 100% fully customized and dialed in and all whole foods there, just skip just skip all this. Don't do any of these protocols. focus on customizing the diet fully before you jump into anything because if you do this intermittent fasting with olive oil modified protocol and then you eat a shitty dinner, well, you just wasted your time completely.
Now, one of the things that I do with my private coaching is we've created an awesome system based on these biomarkers. I have a bunch of videos explaining the biomarker system. But if you are a person who's absolutely serious about healing your skin or overcoming some health element, hit me up for private coaching. We hyperfocus on the diet customization process or check out my channel where I have tons of videos explaining how to do it. This is the utmost most important thing with my private coach. Not only do we customize the diet, but we customize all the different aspects of your healing protocols, your daily habits, your lymph fascia, connective tissue, um, and your circulatory system, your digestion, your gut biome, your detox practices. Every single thing that you do results in how your body is as far as its health. And with my practice, I only take on people who are very, very, very serious. I have limited space. But if it's someone watching this video today and you think this protocol might be good, but you're like, "My diet isn't customized and my skin health is a mess and I can't get it figured out." Hit me up, watch my videos. We're here to help. Um, a link for private coaching is in the description box. Like I said, I'd be more than happy to help you guys. I've had a lot of success with people. Worked with over 3,000 people and success stories come in all the time. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this protocol as much as I do and my clients do because it's easy, it's fun, and it's super effective. And if you have any comments or questions, leave them down below. I'll see you as if there's some good ones, I'll get to them. Um, but I'll see you in many more videos really soon. Remember to subscribe, share, and hit that notification bell. Also, I did create some other videos about olive oil fasting. Um, how to olive oil fast and the difference between water fasting and olive oil fasting. So, there are some other protocols. Check them out on my channel and I'll see you guys soon. Peace.
