Brendan Vermeire | Weight Loss Resistance, Leaky Gut Epidemic, Women & Weight Loss: KKP 69 Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi

- Alternative Health
Welcome to the Keto Kamp Podcast Episode 69 with Brendan Vermiere
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Practitioner, Founder, and Owner of Metabolic Solutions LLC, Brendan Dean Vermeire. Brendan has always been an extremely motivated individual and grew up active in martial arts and wrestling among dabbling in other activities.
At a young age, he realized the importance of fitness and nutrition. Brendan felt empowered by the idea that he had control over his health and physique. Brendan enlisted in the United States Navy for the prestigious SEAL program. Unfortunately, his SEAL aspirations were cut short due to an inguinal hernia that led to a medical discharge.
Brendan transitioned into competitive bodybuilding and started personal training and nutrition coaching at the age of 19. When he started in the industry, he had the pleasure of working with experienced professionals with a vast array of backgrounds and education. Brendan was fortunate enough to gain exposure to many modalities and areas of science.
Being an extremely motivated individual, that exposure has set him on a path to learning as much as he can to optimize human health, happiness, and performance. There is nothing more rewarding to me than being able to help individuals attain a level of wellness they never thought possible.
In this episode, Brendan explains the difference between health and athletic goals. Exercise is a big piece of the puzzle; however, it isn’t the most significant piece. Then, Brendan describes how he feels to have the privilege to lecture medical doctors on functional medicine – it’s a millennial movement. Later, Brendan says that women make up a majority of his clients and reveals the mindset shift that needs to take place to lose weight and become healthy. Tune in to hear Brendan explain the fundamentals, the relationship between weight-loss resistance and inflammation, and leaky gut.

[08:50] Difference Between Athletic Goals and Health Goals
Brendan knew that he wanted to run lab tests and help people reach their ultimate health goals. However, there is so much in-between on becoming healthy. “You have to get healthy to get into shape.” Cater your exercise regimen to your current physiology. Fitness is essential, yet not the biggest piece of the puzzle.
[11:00] Lecturing to Medical Doctors
Brendan started in fitness and nutrition. Functional medicine is an extremely popular thing right now. However, there is no such thing as a doctor of functional medicine - there is no standard of education in this field. Millennials will be leading the functional medicine movement. Enrollment into naturopathic medical school is going down. Functional medicine is a free-for-all. Brendan thinks he has a lot of valuable insight starting as a professional trainer. He sees the full spectrum and all the errors in the system.
[14:55] The Holistic Savage
Brandan finally got into the social media game. You have to put yourself out there if you want something to happen. Brandan didn’t want to be seen as a bodybuilder even though he’s done loads of bodybuilding shows. He is so much more than a bodybuilder. His goal is to elevate the vibrations of consciousness and move people towards a more healthy direction for the sake of the planet. The holistic savage has become its own brand.
[19:10] Self-Awareness about Becoming Introverted
If you’re not taking care of yourself, then you can’t serve to the best of your ability. Brendan takes time to recharge. If you are in the health field, then most likely, you are a giver. You need to fill your own cup before you can fill others.
[20:50] Overcomplicating Everything
Brendan is so deep into the health rabbit hole. There is a vast education gap from standard American to the complexities of holistic
