In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, we sit down with Ben Azadi, author of Metabolic Freedom, to uncover the truth about metabolism and its role in energy, fat loss, and longevity. Ben shares why 93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy, the dangers of the “glucose rollercoaster,” and why snacking may be accelerating aging. You’ll learn the importance of fasting insulin testing, how muscle mass protects metabolic health, the role of stress and cortisol in stubborn fat, and simple strategies to move from metabolic “prison” to metabolic freedom.
