  • Summary

  • Think all vegetables are healthy? Think again. In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals five "superfood" vegetables that could be sabotaging your weight loss, spiking inflammation, disrupting your hormones, and blocking fat burning. Backed by science and expert interviews, you’ll learn exactly which vegetables to avoid, why they’re harmful, and what to eat instead for maximum fat loss and metabolic health. 🥦 Top 5 Vegetables to AVOID for Fat Loss & Inflammation: Spinach High in oxalates → bind to minerals, damage the gut lining, and deplete glutathione Linked to joint pain, kidney stones, and leaky gut Can spike cortisol, increase belly fat, and cause fatigue Kale Another oxalate-rich leafy green Contains goitrogens that can impair thyroid function (→ slows metabolism) Potential trigger for autoimmune flare-ups Swiss Chard A colorful but sneaky oxalate bomb Depletes B6 and biotin → worsens hormonal balance and fat storage Linked to skin, joint, and metabolism issues Beets High in natural sugars + oxalates = double trouble Increases insulin and glucose spikes Damages mitochondria, slowing your fat-burning capacity Potatoes (white/red) High glycemic load + oxalates = metabolic chaos Promotes water retention, fat storage, and bloating Especially dangerous when eaten with high fat (e.g., cheese & butter) 📣 Special Announcement: Join the Free 3-Day Burn Fat Challenge 🗓 Starts April 28 💥 Live sessions with Ben on hormone balance, fat burning, and metabolism—based on his new book Metabolic Freedom 🔗 Reserve your free spot here: http://www.BurnFatChallenge.com 📚 🎁 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.
