Ever feel like you're doing your best to eat healthy, but still feel off—low energy, brain fog, or struggling with stubborn weight?

In today’s world of processed foods, misleading labels, and so-called “healthy” oils, it’s getting harder to separate truth from toxic. But in this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, we get real about it all.

I sat down with the legend himself—Ben Azadi, 4X best-selling author, international keynote speaker, and founder of Keto Kamp—to talk all things metabolic freedom. Ben is a metabolic health expert and one of the most respected voices in the keto and functional health space. He’s also fresh off becoming a New York Times bestselling author, and he’s on a mission to help people break free from food lies, reclaim their health, and live vibrantly.

This episode hits hard, because let’s face it—most of us were never taught how to eat to thrive. And Ben pulls back the curtain on the shady truth behind seed oils, harmful food ingredients, and the medical system’s reactive approach to health. What makes this conversation so powerful is that it’s not just about the problems—it’s about solutions.

Real, actionable stuff you can do today to level up your energy, clarity, and vitality.

Here are a few key takeaways:
You have the power to become the CEO of your health. Ben emphasizes the importance of personal responsibility and tuning in to how your body responds, not blindly following government guidelines or fad diets.

Seed oils are slowly killing us. No joke. Ben breaks down the dangers of these highly inflammatory oils and what to swap them out for.

The MAHA Movement is changing lives. Ben’s initiative is on a mission to educate and empower the masses about true metabolic health and food freedom. It’s not just about looking good—this is about saving lives.

Read your labels like your life depends on it—because it does. Most food marketed as healthy is loaded with chemicals, sugars, and harmful additives. Ben teaches you how to spot the BS fast.

Metabolic freedom = real freedom. When you stabilize your blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and optimize your energy, you unlock a whole new level of performance in business, relationships, and life.

This episode is packed with truth bombs. So if you’re ready to stop being a slave to broken systems and start living with purpose, vitality, and freedom, then you’ve gotta check it out.

In this episode, we cover:
Achieving New York Times Bestseller Status
Understanding Metabolic Freedom
The MAHA Movement and Societal Health Issues
The Importance of Personal Responsibility
Identifying Harmful Ingredients in Food
The Dangers of Seed Oils
Key Takeaways for Metabolic Freedom
Final Thoughts and Resources
