Ben Azadi | Why Keto Works... Until It Doesn't

Ben Azadi | Why Keto Works... Until It Doesn't

Author: Adam Parker July 21, 2026 Duration: 31:59

Why do some people have steady energy, maintain a healthy weight, and go hours without thinking about food, while others are constantly battling cravings, brain fog, energy crashes, and stubborn weight gain?

 

According to Ben Azadi, the answer has less to do with calories and more to do with metabolic health. In this episode, we explore why keto can be one of the most powerful tools for restoring metabolic function, but why staying in ketosis forever may actually limit your long-term progress.

 

Drawing from his new book Keto Flex, Ben explains why the real goal isn't permanent ketosis. It's metabolic flexibility: giving your body the ability to switch effortlessly between burning fat and carbohydrates depending on what life demands. 

 

We discuss when keto works best, when to strategically bring carbohydrates back in, how fasting fits into the equation, and the biggest mistakes people make when trying to optimise their metabolism.
