Your metabolism isn't broken. It was designed to burn fat, produce energy, and heal when the right signals are present. In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals 7 powerful foods that flip on fat-burning genes, lower inflammation, balance hormones, and protect your brain in 2026 and beyond. You'll learn: Why muscle is your primary fat-burning organ How grass-fed red meat supports hormones, metabolism, and insulin sensitivity Why wild-caught fatty fish outperform fish oil supplements How pasture-raised eggs heal the liver and balance hormones What to look for in real, high-polyphenol olive oil Why fermented foods are essential for gut health and fat loss How blueberries reduce glucose spikes and oxidative stress Why bone broth supports joints, sleep, skin, and gut repair Ben also answers common questions about cholesterol, healthy fats, supplements, affordability, and how to start if you feel overwhelmed. If you're struggling with belly fat, low energy, inflammation, or hormone imbalance, this episode provides a simple, food-first roadmap to restore metabolic health and burn fat naturally.

Colon cancer rarely starts with pain. It often begins with subtle signals the body sends long before a diagnosis. In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals five commonly ignored warning signs that could indicate colon cancer is developing and explains what to do if you notice them. You'll learn how low iron and unexplained fatigue can signal slow internal bleeding, why blood in the stool is not always visible, and how persistent changes in bowel habits, abdominal discomfort, and unexplained weight loss should never be brushed off. Ben also shares a functional medicine-based colon protection plan focused on repairing gut health, restoring microbiome diversity, lowering insulin and inflammation, and identifying key labs to test early. This episode empowers you to listen to your body, ask better questions, and take proactive steps toward protecting your long-term health.

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals how decades of hidden toxins were silently stored in his body and why standard blood work completely failed to detect them. Despite eating clean, exercising, fasting, and supplementing, unresolved toxicity created inflammation, hormone issues, brain fog, fatigue, and stubborn weight gain. Ben shares his real heavy metal test results, explains why toxins get stored in fat and organs, and reveals how they create weight loss resistance by forcing the body into survival mode. He breaks down the most dangerous toxins affecting metabolism including lead, mercury, thallium, bismuth, aluminum, and glyphosate, along with their most common sources. You'll learn the exact multi-phase detox protocol Ben used to safely remove toxins, open detox pathways, support the liver, replenish minerals, and restore metabolic function. He also explains why most detox methods fail, how to test for toxins correctly, and why proper detoxification can unlock fat loss, energy, and long-term health. This episode is a must-listen if you feel stuck, inflamed, or unable to lose weight despite doing everything “right.”

Leg weakness, burning when walking, wobbling knees, or foot pain are not signs of aging. They are often early warnings of insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, which silently damages muscle, nerves, and circulation long before diabetes is diagnosed. Your legs are meant to be the body's largest blood sugar sponge. When insulin resistance develops, glucose cannot enter muscle cells efficiently, leading to muscle fatigue, inflammation, fat infiltration, nerve damage, and poor circulation. Common warning signs include: Heavy or tired legs while walking Burning or cramping muscles Balance issues and slower gait Difficulty standing from a chair Tingling, numbness, or cold feet Key labs that reveal the problem: Fasting insulin (optimal: 3–6) HbA1c (optimal: 5.2% or lower) Fasting glucose (70–90 mg/dL) Triglycerides under 100 HDL over 60 Triglyceride-to-HDL ratio under 1.5 The 7-step protocol to restore leg strength: Stop eating at least 3 hours before bed Strength train legs twice per week Eat 30–40g of high-quality protein per meal Lower carbs, eliminate snacking, and walk after meals Walk daily to improve circulation Support nerves with sleep, B vitamins, grounding, and red light therapy Prioritize deep, consistent sleep Ben emphasizes that leg strength is metabolic protection, not vanity, and that fixing insulin resistance can rapidly restore strength, balance, and energy.

In this episode, Ben Azadi explains how most people unknowingly block fat loss every night through poor bedtime habits, not food quality or calories. True fat burning and anti-aging happen during sleep when hormones are properly aligned. Ben breaks down a simple, science-backed nighttime routine that lowers insulin and cortisol, boosts melatonin and growth hormone, and activates deep fat-burning sleep. Key takeaways include: Stop eating at least 3 to 5 hours before bed to avoid insulin spikes and suppressed melatonin Late-night eating blocks fat burning and accelerates aging Cortisol must be low at night for fat loss to occur, achieved through slow nasal breathing and gratitude Darkness after sunset is essential, as artificial light suppresses melatonin and disrupts circadian rhythm Cooler bedroom temperatures (65–67°F) enhance deep sleep and overnight fat loss Alcohol, late workouts, doom scrolling, and nighttime snacking sabotage sleep and metabolism Ben also explains why calories are a distraction, not the root cause of fat loss resistance, and why focusing on hormones leads to sustainable results, especially for people over 40 or postmenopausal. The episode includes practical solutions for waking up at 2–3 a.m., how fast results typically appear, and why fixing sleep is one of the most powerful anti-aging and fat-loss strategies available.

Rice doesn't spike blood sugar because it's “bad.” It spikes blood sugar because of how it's eaten. In this episode, Ben Azadi breaks down five science-backed ways to upgrade rice so it supports metabolic health instead of sabotaging it. You'll learn how simple additions like seaweed, vinegar, cooling rice, adding protein and fat, and using soluble fiber can dramatically lower glucose and insulin responses while improving gut health. These strategies are backed by human studies and help turn rice from a fast-acting carb into a slow-digesting, gut-healing, fat-burning food. Key topics covered: Why rice causes insulin spikes and visceral fat when eaten incorrectly How wakame seaweed lowers glucose and feeds beneficial gut bacteria Why vinegar reduces post-meal blood sugar and insulin How cooling and reheating rice creates resistant starch The importance of pairing carbs with protein, fat, and vegetables How psyllium husk can blunt glucose spikes and support digestion Why white rice can be healthier than brown rice for many people If you've been avoiding rice due to blood sugar concerns, this episode shows you how to enjoy it again without the crash.

For 15 years, Ben lived with chronic inflammation and arthritis that doctors blamed on age and genetics. Medications only masked symptoms and never addressed the root cause. In this episode, Ben explains why arthritis is not a joint problem, but a gut and immune system issue. He breaks down the science behind autoimmune inflammation, leaky gut, and how certain “healthy” foods can silently trigger flare-ups. You'll learn how gut permeability overstimulates the immune system, why anti-nutrients like lectins, oxalates, and nightshades can worsen rheumatoid arthritis, and how eliminating specific foods can quickly reduce pain and inflammation. Ben also shares his step-by-step protocol to repair the gut, lower systemic inflammation, and restore immune balance using nutrition, fasting, bone broth, high-quality protein, fermented foods, and lifestyle habits. This conversation applies not only to arthritis, but also to other autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's, lupus, and psoriasis. If you're inflamed, exhausted, or stuck in chronic pain, this episode offers a clear, actionable path forward. Your body isn't broken. When the interference is removed, healing becomes possible.

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals how castor oil can support digestion, hormone balance, detox pathways, pain relief, sleep, and fat loss. Backed by human research and clinical observations, these simple protocols can deliver noticeable results in as little as days. What You'll Learn Why constipation, bloating, and belly fat are often driven by stress and inflammation, not calories How castor oil's active compound (ricinoleic acid) supports gut motility, reduces inflammation, and activates the parasympathetic nervous system The connection between cortisol, visceral fat, and poor sleep How castor oil supports liver detox, lymphatic drainage, and hormone balance Safe, effective ways to use castor oil for joints, PMS, cramps, and pain The exact type of castor oil to use (and which ones to avoid) Key Takeaways Castor oil can improve bowel movements without laxatives Applying castor oil with heat can lower cortisol and improve deep sleep Supports liver function, bile flow, and detoxification Helps reduce joint pain and inflammation without damaging the liver May reduce bloating, puffiness, and lymphatic congestion Choosing a high-quality, organic, cold-pressed castor oil is essential FREE GUIDE: Better Than Ozempic - https://bit.ly/4ssxetw  Castor Oil: https://Benazadi.com/thrones   use code "BENAZADI"  for 10% off CLICK For Your Complete 14 Day Fat Loss Plan (Reignite Your Body & Life) HERE - https://bit.ly/3L7BHkr 

In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi reveals how using one tablespoon of high-quality extra virgin olive oil during a fast can enhance fat loss, autophagy, insulin sensitivity, and cortisol balance instead of breaking your fast. Ben explains why fasting is not about zero calories, but about hormonal signaling, and how the right olive oil sends a powerful “fat-burning and healing” message to the body. You'll learn: Why olive oil does not break a fast and actually enhances autophagy How extra virgin olive oil activates fat-burning genes (PPAR-alpha) The role of olive oil in lowering insulin and cortisol Why high-polyphenol olive oil matters and most grocery store oils fail A simple daily olive oil fasting protocol for metabolic health How olive oil fasting can be gentler and more effective than water fasting The truth about cooking with olive oil vs seed oils Ben also breaks down how to identify real, high-quality olive oil, why polyphenols are the key compound for fat loss and inflammation reduction, and how this simple protocol can lead to better energy, reduced belly fat, and impro FREE GUIDE: Lose 10 Pounds in 7 Days - https://bit.ly/4sjMvfZ

Ben breaks down how late-night eating, constant snacking, inflammatory foods, and modern seed oils quietly destroy gut health and lead to bloating, acid reflux, brain fog, fatigue, and stubborn belly fat. You'll learn: Why eating at least 3 hours before bed is non-negotiable for gut repair How gentle fasting (14:10 or 18:6) gives your digestive system a daily reset Which “healthy” foods are secretly inflaming your gut The exact foods to remove and what to eat instead for 21 days How to rebuild the gut with fermented foods and gentle prebiotics How this protocol supports IBS, SIBO, acid reflux, and hormone balance Why gut healing leads to fat loss, better energy, and mental clarity Ben also explains how to personalize the reset, reintroduce foods safely, and turn this protocol into a long-term lifestyle for lasting metabolic freedom.

New beginnings in Christ aren’t just inspirational ideas—they’re biblical promises rooted in spiritual renewal, freedom from sin, and transformation through Jesus. Drawing from Ephesians 4:20–24, this devotional explores what God says about new beginnings, reminding believers that faith in Christ creates a new identity, a renewed mind, and a real opportunity to leave the old life behind. Highlights Scripture teaches that salvation in Christ creates a new self, not a slightly improved version of the old one. God offers new mercies every morning, providing forgiveness, restoration, and fresh opportunity. Sin, trauma, and unhealthy patterns do not have the final word—renewal through Christ is possible. Change may feel difficult or impossible, but God supplies the strength to walk in newness of life. New beginnings require belief, trust, and intentional steps rooted in God’s truth. Choosing God’s promises over fear allows spiritual growth and lasting transformation. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: What God Says about New Beginnings By Aaron D’Anthony Brown Bible Reading:“But that is not how you came to know Christ, assuming you heard about him and were taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus, to take off your former way of life, the old self that is corrupted by deceitful desires, to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, the one created according to God’s likeness in righteousness and purity of the truth.” (Ephesians 4:20-24, CSB) There’s plenty to appreciate about new things, like the smell of a new car or the feel of new clothes. This is all the more true of a new marriage or a newborn baby. Newness in life can be and often is good and exciting. Yet, while we can usually appreciate new material things or relationships, we don’t always show the same gratitude toward the newness found in God. The newness that is God. Perhaps that is because we don’t fully fathom what He says about new beginnings. Scripture tells us how the Lord creates within us a “new self,” and how He offers “new mercies” every morning. He takes off the shackles of sin that once defined us and helps us become better image-bearers of His Son. The old self was corrupted, but the new self was created in His righteousness. If our faith in Jesus Christ makes us new, then we don’t have to be like our old selves. Whatever sinful habits or unhealthy relationships or trauma that once seemed permanent can be undone. A new beginning is possible. Chances are, on an intellectual level, we believe in the new beginning because we know that change is possible. Yet, another part of us says that change is hard. And oftentimes not just hard, but seemingly impossible. That’s when we have to remember, “I am able to do all things through him who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). If God makes us new and grants us the power to walk in that newness, then we should ask ourselves, “Why aren’t we?” Fear? Laziness? Ignorance? If we are new, then we are not stuck in the old. We can grow. We can embrace a new beginning. After reading Scripture and understanding that God makes us new, the next step is figuring out how to apply this knowledge to our lives. Intersecting Faith & Life: Here are a few ways you can apply God’s new beginnings to your life starting today: Thank God for new mercies. Today doesn’t have to be like yesterday, and tomorrow doesn’t have to be like today. If God grants us new mercies, we would be foolish not to accept them. That means mercy in the form of forgiveness, mercy in the form of a chance to right our wrongs, mercy in the form of seeing another day. The average life expectancy for Americans may be around 80, but no day is guaranteed. That should caution us to make the most of each day we are given. Not using it as an opportunity to serve the flesh or our old way of being, but striving to be something better, someone new. Thank God that His mercies are new every morning and make wise use of them. Thank God for new opportunities. With every new day comes an opportunity to do something different. Maybe yesterday brought a contentious argument with a spouse or a relapse in addiction, but today doesn’t have to follow the same pattern. Today can be different, because the past does not predict the future. We often see new beginnings as impossible until we’re in them, but paradoxically, not believing in the new beginning prevents us from reaching it in the first place. Recall and thank God for the new opportunities He has given you in the past, whether in relationships, jobs, or financial security. Remember those past blessings and use them to encourage yourself today. If a new beginning was possible before, indeed it can happen again. Be encouraged that you are new. Understanding that you have been and are being made new every day will feel hard to believe some days, but we have to press forward. Newness means something to God, and He delights in His children growing in the likeness of His Son. The sinful part of you may say that isn’t true, but if you have to ask yourself, “Do I want to believe sin, or do I want to believe God?” Which would you pick? If you pick God, then choose to embrace your new beginning today.

Waking up between 2–3 AM is not insomnia or bad luck. It's a biological response driven by low blood sugar and rising cortisol. In this episode, Ben Azadi explains why your body wakes you up alert and wired, and shares a simple, science-backed protocol to fall back asleep within minutes. What You'll Learn: Why nighttime wakeups are caused by cortisol and blood sugar crashes The exact 4-step protocol to calm your nervous system and restore sleep How nasal breathing, humming, and vagus nerve activation reduce stress fast Why raw honey + sea salt stabilizes blood sugar without ruining fat loss How gratitude (“Vitamin G”) signals safety to the brain The role of liver health, circadian rhythm, and minerals in sleep quality How to prevent 2 AM wakeups long-term through lifestyle changes FREE GUIDE: Better Than Ozempic - https://bit.ly/3MPfc49 

Bread was once a true superfood that fueled ancient civilizations for thousands of years without causing obesity, diabetes, or widespread gut issues. Today's bread, however, is a completely different product. In this episode, Ben explains how modern bread has been industrialized through hybridized wheat, chemical processing, seed oils, and rushed production methods that disrupt digestion, spike blood sugar, inflame the gut, and damage metabolic health. You'll learn why gluten isn't the real problem, how fermentation was stripped from modern bread, and how glyphosate sprayed on wheat impacts gut bacteria, immunity, and mitochondria. Ben also explains why inflammation, not just insulin spikes, is the root cause of belly fat and metabolic dysfunction. The episode breaks down whether sourdough is truly safe, how to choose better bread options if you eat it at all, and why many people feel better avoiding bread completely while healing their metabolism. Ben also shares practical strategies to reduce inflammation, improve blood sugar control, and take back control of your health through informed food choices. Key takeaway: Bread didn't fail you. The system failed bread. When you respect food again, your metabolism responds. FREE GUIDE: 5 Vegetables You Must Avoid To Lose Weight & Belly Fat -  https://bit.ly/4s7xA8F 

In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals why cravings are not a willpower issue, but a hormonal and metabolic problem driven by insulin instability. Ben explains how insulin spikes shut off fat burning, trigger hunger hormones, increase stress, and fuel uncontrollable cravings, especially at night. He breaks down the science behind insulin, glucose crashes, ghrelin, cortisol, and dopamine-driven eating behaviors. You'll learn a simple, science-backed protocol to stabilize insulin first, before calorie restriction, cardio, or fasting, so cravings drop naturally and fat loss becomes automatic. The episode outlines a practical 7-day reset that helps reduce inflammation, water retention, and stubborn belly fat while restoring metabolic control. Ben also answers common questions about carbs, coffee, artificial sweeteners, protein intake, exercise, fasting, and how to make results sustainable long term. This conversation reframes fat loss as a metabolic healing process, not a discipline battle, and shows how true metabolic freedom feels calm, empowering, and sustainable.

Fasting is one of the most powerful tools for fat loss, healing, and longevity, but it fails for many people because their metabolism is not prepared. In this episode, Ben Azadi explains why fasting feels miserable or unsustainable for most people and reveals the hidden metabolic mistakes that sabotage results before a fast even begins. You'll learn why being a sugar burner instead of a fat burner makes fasting feel like torture, how stress and poor sleep block fat burning, and why nighttime eating can completely ruin your fast the next day. Ben also breaks down how inflammation, toxins stored in fat cells, low protein intake, and an all-or-nothing approach to fasting lead to crashes, cravings, and failure. This episode covers: Why fasting fails when metabolic flexibility is low The role of insulin, cortisol, and inflammation in fasting success How stress, sleep, and nighttime eating impact fat burning Why toxins can make fasting feel worse instead of better How to properly prepare your body before fasting The 7 foundational steps to make fasting easier and effective How to know when your body is truly ready to fast If fasting has ever felt like failure or suffering, this episode explains why it was not your fault and how fixing the foundation can completely change your results.

Most people blame posture for their neck and shoulder pain, but research shows the real root cause is often hormones, not mechanics. In this episode, Ben explains how cortisol, thyroid hormones, sex hormones, insulin, and even growth hormone can lock your muscles into chronic tension and why most doctors miss these connections. You'll learn how stress hormones alter pain pathways, increase inflammation, and create tight traps, stiff necks, and burning shoulders. Ben breaks down a simple daily Cortisol Calm Protocol using breathwork, post-meal walking, a no-stimulation hour, and gratitude to quickly shift your body out of fight-or-flight. He then exposes the deep link between an underactive thyroid and muscle aches, frozen shoulder, fatigue, and chronic stiffness — plus which full thyroid panel to request from your doctor (not just TSH). Next, he explains why women 40–60 experience sharp increases in joint pain during perimenopause and menopause due to changes in estrogen that affect lubrication, cartilage, strength, and inflammation. You'll also hear why people with insulin resistance or diabetes are five times more likely to develop frozen shoulder. High insulin creates stiff connective tissue and slows healing. Ben gives practical metabolic strategies: lower carbs, test fasting insulin, walk after meals, strength train, and use intermittent fasting. The episode closes with the overlooked role of deep sleep and growth hormone in tissue repair. Poor sleep dramatically reduces recovery, while fasting and strength training boost growth hormone naturally. FREE GUIDE: How To Lose 1 Pound Of Fat Per Day HERE -https://bit.ly/48AYCfC

What if your company's success depends less on what you build and more on what your people are chasing?   For Ken Rusk, digging ditches became the foundation for building something far more valuable: a company where employees don't just show up to work — they show up for their lives.   In this episode, I speak with Ken Rusk, nine-figure entrepreneur and author of Blue Collar Cash, about how he built his business by aligning personal dreams with company growth, and why creating a culture of ownership, vision, and peace is more powerful than chasing the next milestone.   Ken shares how he developed a visual goal-setting system that drives performance, why he made his company employee-owned, and how his leadership mindset shifted after overcoming personal and professional crises, including a health scare with his daughter and navigating the pandemic.   We talk about: How turning employees into goal-setters created unstoppable momentum Why giving up control was the best decision he ever made as a leader How to build long-term loyalty without high-pressure tactics or perks The difference between reacting and proacting as an entrepreneur What “comfort, peace, and freedom” really mean, and how to build toward them How to spot internal leaders (and how to help them thrive)   This episode is packed with wisdom for anyone building a business, leading a team, or simply looking to live more intentionally, not someday, but starting today.   Get Ken's book here: https://www.kenrusk.com/blue-collar-cash/ Blue-Collar Cash: Love Your Work, Secure Your Future, and Find Happiness for Life   Here are some free gifts for you:    Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to “Spirit Move!” by Denise Rosier: There is no holding back the power in this room right now, Rising up as a force of love so high it can't come down. Every soul is a soul on fire Burning bright with the Light of Life Here we are open wide; there's no place we can hide Like a river deep and, rolling out like a mighty flood, Love's filling every heart and pouring out of us. Feel it breaking down the walls, building everybody up. It's taking over now; there's no way it can stop. Spirit move everything. Spirit move in the space between. Spirit move.

IDD Health Matters hosted by Craig Escudé, MD, FAAFP, FAADM features guests from across the globe who are leading the efforts to improve health, wellness and health equity for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Brandi's Hope Community Services began operations in June 2010 after being a long time dream of owner and CEO, Danny Cowart. Danny and his wife Brenda are the proud parents of our company's name sake, Brandi Erin Cowart. For almost ten years he and his wife Brenda received services/supports for their daughter who was born with Trisomy 18, a rare and fatal chromosomal disorder. They were determined to give her the opportunity to live at home and have a typical life. The Cowarts wanted to share their dreams for Brandi with other individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They saw firsthand the great need for these supports as parents and advocates. Mr. Cowart also experienced this need as the CEO of a service provider that offered these types of services statewide. What the Cowarts began to realize was a genuine need for more personalized and individual driven supports. The goal and purpose for beginning Brandi's Hope Community Services is to do just that: support individuals the way they choose to be supported. Choice is a fundamental driving force in the philosophy that all members of Brandi's Hope share. Brandi's Hope: https://www.brandishope.com More Friends for Life Here: https://bit.ly/3m0Pec7

As a working mom, your Foundation for a Satisfying Marriage, Great Motherhood Experience, and Rewarding Career must be strong. Compare it to a juggler or entertainer who is juggling 3 balls; they must have his/her feet grounded on the ground and their core must be strong to balance the 3 balls. Likewise, working moms are jugglers. They must juggle 3 balls (Marriage, Motherhood, and their Career) all at the same time. It may look impossible to juggle it all, but when you have your feet planted firmly to the ground and a strong core, it is possible to have it all without it falling apart. In this episode of The Latika Vines Show, Latika shares how you can access the BOSS Mom Foundation that has helped her and her clients gain the strength (and character-building experience) to have a Satisfying Marriage, Great Motherhood Experience, and Rewarding Career.
