What if your stubborn weight gain, fatigue, or blood sugar issues aren’t just about food or hormones, but the toxins your body has been accumulating for decades?

In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with detoxification expert Dr. Wendy Myers to explore how heavy metals, environmental chemicals, and everyday exposures may be silently disrupting metabolism, insulin function, and mitochondrial energy.

Dr. Myers explains why many people do everything right with diet and exercise yet still struggle with fatigue, weight loss resistance, and metabolic dysfunction. The conversation breaks down how toxic metals like arsenic, cadmium, iron, and mercury interfere with insulin signaling, damage cells, and contribute to conditions like pre-diabetes, fatty liver, and chronic fatigue.

You’ll also learn what real detox actually means, how to test for heavy metals, practical daily detox strategies, and emerging approaches like bioenergetic frequency tools. If you’ve hit a plateau despite healthy habits, this episode explores a powerful missing piece in metabolic health.
