In this powerful episode of A Healthy Point of View, Sam Tejada sits down with bestselling author and metabolic health expert Ben Azadi for a deep dive into the root causes of modern health issues—from obesity and diabetes to depression and toxic overload.

Ben opens up about his personal journey from addiction and obesity to becoming a leading voice in the health space, and reveals how mindset, nutrition, and metabolic flexibility can radically transform your life.

Discover why insulin resistance, not just calories, is the key to understanding weight gain. Learn about the ketogenic diet, the truth about GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, and how toxins like mold and heavy metals could be the real culprits behind your fatigue and stubborn weight.

Plus, hear how Metabolic Freedom—Ben’s latest book—can help you reclaim your health and energy without relying on Big Pharma.

Whether you're just starting your health journey or biohacking your way to peak performance, this episode is packed with science-backed insights, real-world advice, and the motivation you need to take control of your metabolic destiny.
