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)
