Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi

Today Ben sheds some light on the 5 worst carnivore mistakes causing weight gain and disease. You may be surprised by these little known secrets of carnivore. #1 Not Eating Enough Fat: A common misconception is that the carnivore diet is all about protein. However, adequate fat intake is crucial for energy, satiety, and hormone balance. Neglecting fat can lead to fatigue, hunger, and nutrient deficiencies. #2 Not Prioritizing Organ Meats: Organ meats like liver, kidney, and heart are nutritional powerhouses, packed with essential vitamins and minerals that are often lacking in muscle meat alone. Skipping organ meats can lead to deficiencies over time. #3 Not Managing Electrolytes: The carnivore diet can lead to changes in electrolyte balance, particularly sodium and potassium. Not paying attention to electrolyte intake can result in headaches, fatigue, muscle cramps, and other health issues. #4 Not Transitioning Gradually: Jumping into the carnivore diet too quickly can shock the body and cause digestive issues, fatigue, and other side effects. A gradual transition is crucial to allow the body to adapt to the changes in food intake. #5 Doing the carnivore diet for too long. Ignoring Individual Needs: Every person is different, and the carnivore diet may not be suitable for everyone. Ignoring individual needs and preferences can lead to frustration, burnout, and potential health complications.

Today, I am blessed to have Shane O'Mara here with me. He is a Professor of Experimental Brain Research at Trinity College Dublin - the University of Dublin. He received his bachelor's and master's degrees from NUI Galway and a DPhil from the University of Oxford. He is a Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin (FTCD), and was the first Ireland-based elected Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science (FAPS) and is an elected member of the Royal Irish Academy (MRIA). He has a popular newsletter at brainpizza.substack.com - signup for slices of writing on brains, behavior, and lots in between… In this episode, Shane highlights that all public health agencies advocate for at least three to five hours of exercise per week because our bodies are designed for movement. Sedentary habits can lead to high blood glucose, type 2 diabetes, undesirable cholesterol accumulation, and increased inflammation. Tune in as we talk about how an active lifestyle is beneficial while inactivity is harmful. Exercise lowers cancer rates, especially bowel cancer. Aging increases disease risk, but a healthy body improves cell function and reduces cancer risk. To enhance your health, avoid smoking, vaping, excessive drinking, and consume a diet low in ultra-processed foods and saturated fats. Social connections are vital for mental well-being; humans' social and cooperative nature has been key to our success.

It may sound crazy, but there are some incredible benefits to eating nothing but meat for 30 days. This video will explain 5 surprising benefits…. The first benefit is that you completely reset your digestive system. If you are dealing with acid reflux, gas, bloating, food allergies, constipation, diarrhea, or autoimmune disease… Most people can completely get rid of these symptoms within 30 days of only eating meat. There’s a condition called leaky gut, where essentially you have undigested food particles floating around in your bloodstream… in other words, poop in your blood! Your digestive system has a physical barrier called the mucosal barrier. You have tight junctions in place to keep food within your mucosal barrier, so it’s processed, assimilated and used by your cells.  When you have a leaky gut, these tight junctions rip open, and it allows food particles to go undigested and enter your bloodstream. This puts your immune system on high alert, which leads to a hyperactive immune system, and eventually autoimmune disease. There are over 100 autoimmune diseases and another 40 diseases associated with autoimmune.  What happens next is that your immune system gets confused, and starts tagging healthy foods like avocado, eggs , broccoli and others as a threat since they do not belong in the bloodstream. This creates food sensitivities to these specific foods.   It’s estimated that most people have leaky gut! Harvard recently published an article stating all disease begins in the leaky gut. The second amazing benefit of eating only meat for 30 days is melting body fat. The third amazing benefit of eating only meat for 30 days is that you get into ketosis. The fourth amazing benefit of eating only meat for 30 days is better mood, brain function and energy levels. The fifth amazing benefit of eating only meat is reduced inflammation If you enjoyed this video, you’re going to love a video I just published on my 90 day carnivore experiment. I only ate meat for 90 days, did labs and other tests day 1 and 90, and I shared what it did to my body.

Today, I am blessed to have Dr. Georgia Ede here with me. She is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist specializing in nutritional and metabolic psychiatry. Her twenty-five years of experience include twelve years at Smith College and Harvard University Health Services, where she was the first to offer nutrition-based therapies as an alternative to psychiatric medication. Dr. Ede speaks internationally about nutrition science and dietary approaches to psychiatric conditions and developed the first and only medically accredited Ketogenic Diets for Mental Health Clinician Training Program. In 2022, she co-authored the first inpatient study of the ketogenic diet for serious mental illness and was named a recipient of the Baszucki Brain Research Fund’s Metabolic Mind Award. In this episode, Dr. Ede identifies the most harmful foods contributing to brain decline and chronic disease as refined carbohydrates, refined vegetable oils, alcohol, grains, and legumes. She explains that refined carbohydrates, such as sugar and flour, and seed oils, like soybean and canola oil, undergo extensive processing that strips them of natural properties, leading to excessive linoleic acid intake. Tune in as Dr. Ede emphasizes that a ketogenic diet is not a list of foods but a powerful metabolic intervention that can significantly alter the brain's functioning. By drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, individuals can lower their insulin levels, which is crucial for entering ketosis.

Today, I am blessed to have Mike Mutzel here with me. Mike has a B.S. in Biology from Western Washington University and an M.S. in Clinical Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport and is a graduate of the Institute for Functional Medicine’s (IFM) Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice (AFMCP). Mike regularly conducts workshops for health care practitioners, teaching leading-edge science in a concise format that can be utilized by progressive clinicians for the prevention of chronic disease. In this episode, Mike emphasizes walking as an essential part of daily life, regardless of diet or fasting regimen. He highlights studies showing that aiming for around 9,000 steps a day can significantly benefit overall health, with 12,000 steps daily helping to prevent various diseases. For those specifically looking to lose belly fat, Mike suggests breaking up walks into "exercise snacks," such as three or four sessions of 2,500 to 3,000 steps spread throughout the day. Tune in as Mike emphasizes exercise's significant role in enhancing fasting's benefits, particularly regarding autophagy. In this process, the body cleanses damaged cells and regenerates new ones. He discusses a study that showed physically fit individuals initiated autophagy markers much earlier in fasting than sedentary individuals.

Today, I am blessed to have David Schmidt here with me. David’s experience in business and product development spans over 30 years and includes a formal education in Management Information Systems and Biology at Pace University in Pleasantville, NY. David then went on to pursue several entrepreneurial endeavors and, as a result, owned successful companies involved in manufacturing and product development.  In this episode, David explains his belief in the potential for humans to live to a thousand years, rooted in biblical accounts and supported by emerging scientific perspectives. David's research focuses on biomimetics, which involves studying living organisms and mimicking their systems with technology. His work with planaria, ants, and lobsters has led to the development of technologies that activate stem cells and alter gene expression using light, demonstrating significant longevity enhancements. David's findings, he believes, point to intelligent design and the presence of a divine code in biological systems, aligning with his religious beliefs and underscoring the potential for extending human life through scientific advancements. Tune in as David explains that melatonin is extraordinary in longevity research due to its balancing role in the mitochondria's antioxidant and oxidative systems, alongside glutathione and nitric oxide. Elevating glutathione to match nitric oxide levels supports ATP production. To achieve extended lifespans, supporting the body's antioxidant systems and nitric oxide precursors like citrulline is crucial.
