If you are constantly bloated, fatigued, and feeling heavy, your gut bacteria have taken over. The standard advice is to just stop eating and do a multi-day water fast. But if your gut is already inflamed, a strict zero-calorie fast will actually spike your cortisol, trigger adrenaline crashes, and blow open the tight junctions in your intestinal wall.In this video, I break down the Italian fasting hack engineered by longevity researcher Valter Longo: The Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD).I explain exactly how to structure this 5-day protocol to trick your body into autophagy (cellular cleanup) while still eating 800 to 1100 calories of specific fats and complex carbs. You will learn how constant "grazing" paralyzes your Migrating Motor Complex, why hidden proteins in vegetables are secretly kicking you out of fasting mode, and the exact step-by-step protocol to re-feed your microbiome on Day 6 without causing a massive inflammatory storm.Thank you to our sponsors!-GOT MOLD? | Go to&nbsp;<a href="http://gotmold.com/shop" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://gotmold.com/shop</a>and use DAVE10 to save 10% and see what’s in your air-The One Device | Use code DAVE for $10 off at&nbsp;<a href="http://theonedevice.com/dave" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">theonedevice.com/dave</a>-iRestore | Reverse hair loss at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.irestore.com/DAVE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.irestore.com/DAVE</a>&nbsp;and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVETimestamps:00:00 – Intro00:40 – Gut Ecosystem01:00 – Constant Snacking02:57 – Gut-Brain Connection03:40 – Why Standard Fasting Can Backfire07:22 – The Fasting Sweet Spot09:21 – Introducing the FMD10:43 – Pre-Reset: Prep Days13:24 – The 5-Day FMD Protocol16:47 – Meal Timing & Circadian Rhythm17:46 – Sleep, Stress & Recovery18:22 – How Often to Do FMD19:23 – WrapupConnect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/DAVE15Dave Asprey’s BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com/Dave Asprey’s New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/Dave's favorite supplements: https://www.shopsuppgradelabs.com/discount/DAVE15Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.comSee Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
