#407 Ben Azadi: Breaking Free From Metabolic Prison
Ben Azadi is a bestselling author, speaker, and founder of Keto Kamp. After overcoming obesity, depression, and pre-diabetes, Ben has dedicated his life to helping others achieve “metabolic freedom” through nutrition, mindset, and faith. With a background in personal training and years of content creation via podcasting, YouTube, and books, his latest work, Metabolic Freedom, blends actionable dietary advice with spiritual and psychological tools for true transformation.
Ben Azadi joins the show to unpack his new book Metabolic Freedom, a blueprint for reclaiming your health through ancestral eating, fasting, and radical responsibility. From his personal transformation—losing 80 pounds and reversing pre-diabetes—to helping millions ditch metabolic dysfunction, Ben shares practical strategies for fat loss, healing, and mental clarity. This episode goes beyond macros and protocols—it’s about removing interference, building intuition, and stepping into the healthiest version of yourself.
What we cover:
- The meaning of “metabolic freedom” and why most are in a metabolic prison
- The problem with modern healthcare
- The power of single-ingredient foods and low-carb nutrition
- The impact of thoughts and mindset on metabolism
