If you consume olive oil, then you must watch today’s short video.
It’s about how most olive oils are just bad for you and are, in fact, fake!
Obviously, we all hear how good olive oil is.
In fact, my parents used to consume that toxic, unhealthy and cheap canola oil.
Usually it was Mazola.
BUt now, they’ve switched over to “healthy Olive oil” … which is almost the same
junk and I’ll tell you why in a minute.
And one reason olive oil is such a popular “healthy oil” or food is because people
in meditarrinian areas, who live longer than the rest of us, consume more olive oil.
Based on this, silly scientists and doctors now think that THIS is the main reason these
people are living a longer life than the rest of us.
Which, I don’t agree
It’s never one thing.
It’s usually a combination of many factors, … genetics and hormones always being a common
denominator.
In fact, Cardiologist Dr. Gundry thinks Olive oil is the greatest food on the planet and
tells you to consume 12 tablespoons daily.
I definitely don’t agree with Dr. Gundry on this.
That’s at least 1500 calories daily of just this ONE food source.
Which again, I’m totally against any extreme diets.
I don’t think you should be almost all fat or all carbs or all protein or never eat an
entire macronutrient and so on and so forth.
It’s just stupid and not a long-term plan - for health, convenience or success!
Now, I made a video recently about the “3 Most Affordable & Healthiest Testosterone
Boosting Foods that are Clinically Proven”
And one of the foods I mentioned were fats, coconut and olive oil.
I’ve posted a link to that video, if you want to know what the other 2 foods are.

Anyway, I had numerous people ask the same question, “Dr. Robbins - there are so many
olive oil brands, what’s the best?
I heard there are a lot of scam brands.
What do you use?”
And this is true.
Most olive oil, probably at least 80% or more, does NOT contain olive oil.
Or, it’s a mixture of other oils and SMALL amounts of olive oil.
And THIS is exactly what happened to my parents.
I looked at their olive oil and it was a “blend”.
This picture is very typical of what companies do to trick us.
The “Extra Virgin Olive Oil” is in SUPER BIG font.
While the “Canola Oil” is much smaller and can barely been seen.
Same with the word, “blend” at the bottom.
It’s like camouflage in there.
So, you must read the labels and make sure on the ingredient panel, it says “100%,
cold pressed, organic olive oil” and so forth.
Like this label
This is the company I use, Bragg.
I put a direct link to it at Amazon, if you want to give it a try or read more about it.
When you taste it, you can tell the difference.
The quality is very good and the best part is that it’s not expensive.
There are other brands just as good and maybe better, but it’ll also cost us 3-6x more.
For me, it’s not worth it.
I take probably 1 or maybe 2 tablespoons daily.
This is in addition to other healthy fats I consume.
Such as fish and avocados
So, there’s no way I’m consuming 12+ tablespoons daily of Olive oil, like Dr. Gundry suggests.
Also, I keep most of the oil in the fridge, so it stays fresh.
And a small amount of it outside, in a dark glass bottle for daily use.
I just eat it raw or usually on a salad.
I don’t cook or heat or fry my oils because it changes the structure of it.
However, you can cook in low heat with olive oil and coconut as well.
And I believe eating green olives is better for you than olive oil.
The whole olives are in a natural form and will digest and absorb differently and better
than the oil version.
They are also higher in polyphenols and other important anti-inflammatory nutrients.
Which as you’ve heard me say many times - inflammation is a primary cause of so many
health problems, including weight gain.
And I have a free email series about the 3 best ways to reduce inflammation, I’ve put
the link below in the description area.
Summary
So, there you have it.
Most olive oils are fake Make sure you read the labels
