In today’s society, we are surrounded by an abundance of processed foods and drinks that have become the norm. This has led to a sharp increase in obesity, which is only getting worse with time. This issue is compounded by poor metabolic health and other related problems that conventional medicine cannot treat. Most often, modern treatments will only cure the symptoms, not the root cause. That’s where Ben Azadi, functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, bestselling health author, keynote speaker, and podcast host, comes in. A former victim of obesity himself, Azadi transformed his own life by using ancient healing techniques combined with modern-day science. He now helps others transform their lives through tools such as Keto Kamp—the go-to resource for intermittent fasting and the ketogenic diet.

Azadi’s ketogenic approach to nutrition can be traced back to ancient cultures that relied on keto diets for their long life spans, vitality, and happiness. Unlike these cultures, the Western diet is high in carbohydrates, which leads to blood sugar spikes. When you throw our mostly sedentary lifestyle into this mix, the result is an increase in obesity and health-related issues that plague a large percentage of the population. After struggling with obesity for 24 years, Azadi turned his life around in 2008 by employing a mixture of ancient healing strategies and modern science. After shredding 80 pounds of pure fat, he realized there was no limit to what he could achieve, and he set out on a journey to further empower himself on these ancient strategies.

Keto Kamp is one instrument Azadi uses to transform lives. Based in Miami Beach, FL, USA, and operating virtually worldwide, Azadi and his team at Keto Kamp are on a mission to help 1 billion people move from a life of fear and defeat to one of education, empowerment, and confidence. Their target groups are victims of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, autoimmune disease, brain fog, leaky gut, and other metabolic disorders that keep people from enjoying optimal health. This program provides individuals with easy-to-follow tools to upgrade their energy and productivity so they can get more done in life!

 “We believe in science and simplicity… a sensible, evidence-based approach that helps people make actionable progress toward improving their health and their cell metabolism,” Azadi reports. The team believes that improving the health of a group consumed with fear and worry shouldn’t be boring and daunting but fun and exciting. “We’re a source of hope and a guiding light to better health and active futures filled with friends, family, adventures, and enjoyment,” Azadi adds.

In a culture obsessed with medicating every problem, Azadi has carved himself a unique niche. After years of research, he asserts that the body can heal itself as long as you remove the interference and maintain healthy habits. Azadi is popularly known as “The Health Detective” because he investigates dysfunction and educates, not medicates, to bring the body back to normal function.

A firm believer in prevention instead of cure, Azadi is vocal about developing healthy and sustainable dietary habits. He shares his findings with a broad audience on YouTube, TikTok, and the award-winning “Keto Kamp” podcast. His YouTube channel boasts 138K+ subscribers, and his TikTok platform has attracted over 200,000 subscribers and 30M+ video downloads. Azadi’s dream is to scale further and help even more people regain their energy and motivation.
