    #908 "We Got Cholesterol Wrong!" - REAL Causes Of Heart Attacks Revealed with Dr. John Kim

    Today, I am blessed to host a conversation with Dr. John Kim, a functional medicine pharmacist. Dr. Kim shares his personal story of suffering a heart attack at 33 despite normal cholesterol levels, revealing the deeper causes like mold toxicity and environmental toxins. We discuss the significant impact of mold on health, chronic inflammation, and stress. Dr. Kim provides practical advice on addressing mold exposure, improving metabolic health through diet, and managing stress with heart rate variability and breathwork. This episode empowers listeners to take proactive steps towards better health and well-being. Ben Azadi kicks off the episode by emphasizing the significance of metabolism and how it transforms food into energy, which is essential for overall well-being. He highlights the podcast's mission to provide listeners with insights from thought leaders in the field, aiming to empower them to enhance their metabolic health. The discussion covers various subjects, including biohacking, fasting strategies, and the importance of a self-healing body. Dr. Kim shares his compelling story of suffering a heart attack at just 33 years old, despite having normal cholesterol levels. He recounts the confusion and disbelief he faced in the cardiac ICU, where doctors initially dismissed his heart attack due to his seemingly healthy lipid profile. Through extensive testing, he discovered that the root causes of his heart issues were not related to cholesterol but rather to chronic inflammation, mold toxicity, and a tick-borne illness called Bartonella. He reflects on his upbringing in a moldy environment, where his family dealt with persistent leaks in their basement. This exposure, combined with his high-stress lifestyle and lack of sleep, contributed to his health crisis. Dr. Kim emphasizes the importance of recognizing the signs of inflammation and the body's signals, which he ignored until it was too late. Actionable Steps: Incorporate Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats, such as avocados, nuts, seeds, and fatty fish, in your diet to support cell membrane health. Focus on Nutrient-Dense Foods: Prioritize whole, unprocessed foods rich in vitamins and minerals to nourish your body and support detoxification. Support Gut Health: Consider supplements like sodium butyrate and probiotics to maintain a healthy gut microbiome and enhance detoxification.

    #907 The World's Easiest Diet For Visceral Fat Reduction In 14 Days with Ben Azadi

    In this episode, Ben Azadi, author of Ketoflex and host of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, outlines a seven-step diet plan to reduce visceral fat in 14 days. The first step is to lower insulin levels by swapping carbohydrates for protein and fat. Ben emphasizes that carbohydrates cause the highest blood insulin response compared to protein and fat. He suggests replacing common high-carbohydrate foods, such as oatmeal, cereal, bread, fruit, and potatoes, with cauliflower rice, eggs, red meat, and vegetables. The second step is to stop snacking between meals to avoid disrupting metabolism and preventing the body from burning visceral fat. The third step is to incorporate sprints into a workout routine three times a week, as high-intensity interval training activates hormones that promote fat burning. The fourth step is to eliminate or limit alcohol consumption, as alcohol prioritizes detoxification over fat burning and increases appetite. The fifth step is to walk at least 7,000 steps a day, particularly after meals, to blunt blood sugar spikes and reduce insulin production. The sixth step is to practice intermittent fasting on an 18/6 schedule to lower insulin levels, increase human growth hormone, and promote cellular cleaning through autophagy. The final step is to get 90 minutes of deep sleep each night to activate fat-burning hormones and accelerate fat loss. Ben also recommends measuring visceral fat through a DEXA scan or, more accurately, an MRI. 📍 Resourced Mentioned: 📍 Online Food Calculate Download for FREE. http://www.cronometer.com/ketokamp 📍 Fat Burning Recipes Delivered to Your Inbox: http://www.ketokamprecipes.com 📍Magnesium: bioptimizers.com/ketokamp use the coupon code KETOKAMP10  📍Somnifix mouth-tape: https://somnifix.com/?ref=3778298&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=goaffpro 📍 Sleep trackers..  📍Oura Ring: https://ouraring.com/discount/6e9615cebf?utm_medium=iac_raf 📍FitBit: https://amzn.to/3Z0tXn1  📍 Apple Watch: https://amzn.to/4fVPZyf 📍Whoop Band: https://amzn.to/3ZgGVyv

    #905 The Supplements That ACTUALLY Work with Ben Azadi

    Not all supplements are created equal—in fact, many of the ones on the market result in expensive urine. The key is to use high-quality supplements derived from whole foods versus synthetic supplements made in a lab. When you take synthetic vitamins, the human body recognizes this substance as a drug. When you take real food supplements, the human body recognizes this as nutrition. What results is something called “selective absorption,” where the body fills in any nutritional gaps and excretes the rest. Real food supplements are derived from concentrated, dehydrated forms of fruits, vegetables, and other natural sources, providing a complex blend of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients as they occur in nature. You can easily spend your extra cash on supplements but the best question we can ask is…. What supplements actually work? I’m going to break this all down for you, plus I will reveal the worst supplements to never spend your money on. I’ve narrowed down my favorite supplements to these 7 supplements that actually work. You’ll notice the following after taking them.. More energy Better sleep / recovery  Less inflammation More mental clarity Weight loss The supplements that actually work: Magnesium Melatonin  Glutathione Shilajit Full spectrum mineral supplement Fulvic and humic (Beam Minerals) PC Oil  📍RESOURCES MENTIONED: 📍Hair Mineral Testing Kit: https://upgradedformulas.com/BENAZADI Code is BENAZADI  📍 Upgraded Formulas Magnesium https://upgradedformulas.com/BENAZADI Code is BENAZADI 📍Melatonin Miracle Molecule book: https://amzn.to/490eDeT  📍Bioptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough Head to http://bioptimizers.com/ketokamp and use the coupon code ketokamp10.
