    The Ben Azadi Show

    Your body isn’t broken. It’s blocked.Twenty years ago Ben Azadi was obese, exhausted, and convinced something was permanently wrong with him. Nothing was. His cells weren’t getting the signal. Once they did, everything changed — and it’s stayed changed for two decades.

    Ben is a 2x New York Times bestselling author (Metabolic Freedom, Keto Flex), international keynote speaker, and a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. But here’s what he’s learned after two decades and thousands of transformations: knowing what to do isn’t what changes your life. Becoming the person who actually does it — that’s what changes your life.

    That’s what this show is built for. Three episodes a week, each with a job:

    Metabolic Monday — Conversations with world-renowned doctors, researchers, and health experts on the latest breakthroughs in metabolic health and longevity. Fasting, insulin resistance, stubborn belly fat, hormones, mitochondria, blood sugar, gut health, ketosis, carnivore, and biohacking — translated into something you can actually run this week.

    Transformation Tuesday — The mindset, habits, and daily practices behind following through. Paradigms, self-image, identity, and the inner work that makes results permanent instead of temporary.

    Freedom Friday — Real conversations about freedom in every area of life. Not just metabolic freedom, but freedom with your time, your purpose, your energy, and the way you show up in the world.

    If you’re over 40 and doing everything right while the scale won’t move — start here.

    Ben’s mission is to educate one billion people. You’re one of them.

    New episodes every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.

    His Dad Died At 60 With Normal Bloodwork - This Doctor Found What The Labs Missed | Dr. Will Cole #1373 Sep 07, 2026
    Show notes

    What if your biological age doesn't tell the whole story?

    In this episode, Ben sits down with Dr. Will Cole, leading functional medicine expert and co-author of Heal Your Cells (written with Dr. Josh Axe), to explore why aging may be far more individualized than a single biological-age number suggests.

    They discuss research showing that different organs can age at different rates, why some cells within the same organ may age unevenly, and how deeper testing could reveal vulnerabilities that standard bloodwork may overlook.

    Dr. Cole also explains how he approaches functional lab testing, environmental toxins, chronic stress, sleep, nutrition, and other factors that influence how the body ages. He shares what he wishes he had known before losing his father to a cardiovascular event and why looking beyond standard reference ranges can provide a more personalized picture of health.

    They also break down a promising 12-week pilot study that reported nearly six years of biological-age reversal through a combination of personalized nutrition, botanicals, stress reduction, sleep optimization, and physical activity, while emphasizing why larger randomized controlled trials are still needed.

    This conversation is ultimately about moving from simply measuring age to understanding how your body is actually aging and where you have the greatest opportunity to intervene.

    From 34% To 6% Body Fat: Weight Was Never My Problem | Jesse Chappus #1372 Sep 04, 2026
    Show notes

    What if losing weight isn't the first step to getting healthy?

    In this episode, Ben joins Jesse Chappus to challenge the idea that excess weight is the root problem. Ben explains why he sees weight as a symptom of deeper metabolic dysfunction and shares the approach that helped him lose 80 pounds of fat in nine months after years of struggling with obesity.

    They break down why simply eating less and exercising more can become a frustrating cycle, how inflammation and hormones influence metabolic health, and why focusing on whole foods instead of ultra-processed foods is a powerful place to start.

    Ben also explains why eliminating constant snacking, building and preserving lean muscle, prioritizing protein, and supporting recovery all play a role in maintaining a healthy metabolism. He shares insights from the landmark 2021 Science study led by Dr. Herman Pontzer, which analyzed more than 6,400 people across 29 countries, including what it revealed about metabolic changes across adulthood and the role of muscle mass later in life.

    The conversation also explores creatine, protein intake, carbohydrates, insulin, and the importance of looking beyond the number on the scale.

    The bigger message is simple: don't make weight the only metric you care about. Build metabolic health first, and let the results follow.

    3x More Cortisol Receptors: Why Stress Puts Fat On Your Belly First | Cynthia Thurlow #1371 Sep 01, 2026
    Show notes

    What if the reason keto isn't working for you has less to do with the diet itself; and more to do with your liver, your fats, and how well your body adapts to stress?

    In this episode, Ben chats with nurse practitioner, bestselling author, and host of the Everyday Wellness podcast Cynthia Thurlow to break down why keto fails so many women, and what to do about it.

    They dive into the two biggest culprits behind keto struggles: a backed-up liver that isn't producing healthy bile, and consuming the wrong types of fats that drive inflammation instead of healing.

    From simple bile-boosting strategies like bitter foods, apple cider vinegar, and ox bile supplementation to swapping processed seed oils for stable fats like butter, ghee, and beef tallow, Ben and Cynthia cover practical steps that can make a ketogenic approach actually work, especially for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

    They also explore why chronic cortisol activation could be sabotaging your results, how to use heart rate variability and blood glucose testing to know if fasting is helping or hurting you, and why the concept of "keto flexing", intentionally cycling in and out of ketosis with strategic feast days—may be the missing piece for long-term metabolic flexibility.

    No rigid protocols. No one-size-fits-all approach. Just smarter strategies that meet your body where it is.

    What if improving your metabolism has less to do with complicated protocols—and more to do with the small choices you make every day?

    In this episode, Ben chats with health and biohacking expert Dylan Gemelli to dive into some of the fundamentals that matter most: sunlight, gut health, fasting, ketosis, food order, glucose, and movement.

    From eating protein first, fat second, and carbs last to taking a simple 10-minute walk after a meal, Ben and Dylan discuss practical strategies that can help you better understand and support your metabolism.

    No complicated protocols. Just better information and simple actions you can actually apply.

    I Read the Same 3 Chapters Every Day for 365 Days — Here's What Happened | Ben Azadi #1369 Aug 28, 2026

    Book Mentioned in This Episode:
    The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles


    What happens when you feed your mind the same message every single day for a year?

    For 365 days, Ben read or listened to the same three chapters from The Science of Getting Rich.

    Over that year, he watched so many areas of his life change—his relationships, marriage, health, mindset, gratitude, and wealth.

    Ben doesn’t believe the book magically created those results. It changed the way he thought, and that changed the way he lived.

    In this episode, Ben breaks down the three chapters, why he read them in that exact order, and how repetition can reshape your mindset, habits, gratitude, relationships, health, and approach to wealth. He also shares the 90-day challenge he wants you to try.

    It’s not too late to change your health.

    In this episode, Alex Montalenti came back to the show to review what changed in his bloodwork over just 90 days.

    We broke down his nutrition, training, sleep, inflammation, and the simple habits that helped move his health markers in the right direction.

    What I love about Alex’s story is that he didn’t need to completely change his life overnight.

    He made better choices consistently, took responsibility for what he was putting into his body, and started seeing the results.

    Your health can change at any age. It starts with the choices you make today.

    For years, I thought my lower back pain was something I simply had to live with.

    I tried everything from chiropractic care and acupuncture to red light therapy, inversion tables, braces, and more. Nothing addressed why the pain kept coming back.

    Then I met Stephen Shin.

    In this episode, we talk about what actually changed for me, why movement and breathing matter, and why getting to the root cause can completely change the way you approach pain and strength.

    If you've dealt with chronic back pain, I think this conversation will give you a completely different perspective.

    For years, I thought my health struggles were just genetics.

    Then I realized I had to take responsibility. That shift changed how I ate, moved, thought, and ultimately lived. Nine months later, I had lost 80 pounds.

    In this conversation with Dr. Daniel Pompa, we go deeper into the mindset shift that changed everything and how pain can become purpose.

    That purpose became my mission: helping others find metabolic freedom.

    You might be tracking your heart rate, but are you tracking HRV? In this episode, Ben Azadi and Alex Montalenti break down what heart rate variability can tell you about stress, recovery, and how well your body is adapting.

    What we get into:

    Why HRV is a powerful marker for understanding your nervous system and recovery.

    How to find your personal baseline and why you shouldn't compare your number to someone else's.

    Why the goal isn't to avoid stress, but to apply stress, recover, and adapt.

    The everyday habits that can impact HRV, from sleep and exercise to late-night eating, alcohol, and recovery.

    How to use HRV to know when to push yourself and when it's time to slow down.

    The other key markers worth tracking, including resting heart rate, deep sleep, REM sleep, and VO2 max.

    One line to remember: Test, don't guess.

    The Hidden Reason You're Aging Faster Than Your Age (It Starts in Your 20s) | Siobhan Mitchell #1364 Aug 17, 2026
    Show notes

    A lot of people are now feeling "old" symptoms in their 20s and 30s

    fatigue, brain fog, slower recovery, decades before their parents ever did.

    What's actually happening inside your cells before you can even feel it?

    By the time you notice it, your mitochondria have already been quietly losing power for years.

    In this episode, I sit down with neuroscientist Dr. Siobhan (PhD in Neuroscience, 25 years researching mitochondria) to break down why aging is really happening at the cellular level, and what you can do about it starting today.

    • Why symptoms that used to show up in your 50s, 60s, and 70s are now showing up in your 20s and 30s
    • What's really happening when your mitochondria "stop working as well" — and why that hits your brain and muscles first
    • The real reason you can't train, eat, or bounce back the way you did in your 20s
    • Why mitochondria act like the "CEO" of your cells — controlling everything from energy production to your immune response
    • The surprising truth about mitochondrial DNA: you only inherit it from your mother, and a single egg can carry over 700,000 mitochondria
    • How oxidative stress from your mitochondria drives nearly every hallmark of aging — DNA damage, inflammation, and more
    • The hidden link between dopamine hits (social media, processed food) and accelerated brain aging
    • Why motivation naturally fades as you age — and how it traces directly back to mitochondrial energy production
    • The top 3–5 habits silently destroying your mitochondria (and the ones that protect them)
