Eating clean, exercise, and trying to do everything right won't work. No matter how hard you try, your body will still break down fast, especially if you're after 40. Why? Simply put, you're missing one signal before trying everything else. This one signal tells your body to repair itself. And without it, your body shifts into decay mode.
But when you fix it, your body starts to reverse what's been going wrong. And really pay attention here because what I'm about to show you most people never hear, especially from their doctor. Here's what you need to know. What happens when you start getting 100 g a day of this we'll call miracle ingredient. Why most people are under consuming it, especially after 40. And the seven shocking ways your body starts fixing itself.
And look, some of these I personally didn't believe until I started experimenting for myself. I'm Ben Aazati, New York Times best-selling author. I'm a former obese man and now I've helped thousands of people take back control over their lives. My community has reported over 1 million pounds of fat loss. But look, before I figured this out, my body felt completely off. I had low energy. My body was inflamed. It felt like my entire body was on fire. And I felt stuck for over 20 years. But when I started correcting this one thing, things began to change fast.
Look, most people just say, "I'm just getting older." But that's not a valid reason why your body is in decline. The truth is, that's not the case. Your body is not broken. It's simply just under supplied. And once you give it what it needs, it starts repairing itself. It starts healing itself because your body is the world's greatest physician. Remove the interference, supply it with what it needs, and your body will heal itself. I don't care if you're listening to this and you're 25 years old or 65 years old. This will work for you.
Okay. The first effect, the positive effect here will be joint repair. Almost everyone after the age of 40 feels joint pain, especially when they wake up, they feel stiff. You know the moment you get out of bed and your knees feel stiff, your lower back is tight, your joints are creaky as you walk, and if it takes a few steps to loosen up, that is not aging, my friend. The reason why your joints feel like rusty hinges and maybe sounds like it too, grinding, stiff, worn down, is because you haven't given your body what it needs to repair itself. But when you increase protein, it's like adding WD40 to those hinges. And look, I've applied this to thousands of people. And here's what they reported in just a few days. The first two days, 1 to two days, they noticed slight looseness. Days 3 to 5, less stiffness getting out of bed in the morning. And within just 7 days, you just move around naturally without having to be in any sort of discomfort or pain. What's happening here is your body starting to repair cartilage micro damage. It's rebuilding connective tissue and overall lowering inflammation. See, your joints weren't just wearing out, they were under repairing.
The second effect here is blood sugar stability. This one is really important. Within just a few days, your energy stops crashing. So, if you've been crashing midday, needing caffeine or other stimulants to get through the day, and especially feeling tired after your meals, this can change fast for you. You see, so many people are dealing with blood sugar roller coaster numbers where they spike blood sugar from the foods they're eating that's under protein. They crash and they crave more carbohydrates. But when you get enough protein, this finally starts to level out. The first three days, you'll notice fewer energy dips after meals. Days four to five, you're going to notice steady natural levels of energy throughout the entire day. And by day six, you no longer have to rely on caffeine or stimulants to focus or get through the day. See, what's happening is you're stabilizing blood sugar by getting enough high quality protein. You're reducing the insulin spike, so your energy becomes consistent. So you don't have low energy, you have unstable energy.
Now the effect number three is my personal favorite, fat unlocking. Around days 3 to 7, your body starts tapping into stored fat. Yeah, the belly fat, the visceral fat. And it's not because you're eating less or focusing on calories or willpower or discipline. It's because your body finally feels safe. See, in the past, it's like your fat has been locked away in a vault. But protein is the key to finally unlock it. And within just three to four days, bloating drops. By day five, you start using fat instead of sugar for fuel. And within just two weeks, that's 14 days, you're going to notice visible fat loss. This is because you lower insulin, the only fat storage hormone in your body. This makes fat more accessible. This allows you to burn through your sugar reserves called your glycogen stores, which is the key to tap into your fat stores. And the missing piece here is also muscle is preserved which makes you more insulin sensitive. See fat loss doesn't occur just by eating less and moving more. Starts when your body feels safe to let go of that fat.
Effect number four is body recomposition. By two to 3 weeks, your body looks different. Not smaller, but tighter. Your clothes fit better. Your waist looks leaner. It's like if your body goes from a soft, deflated shape to something structured and held together again. So, week one, internal subtle changes. Week two, smaller waist and less softness. By week three, you'll notice visible definition. You see, by getting enough protein, you're increasing your muscle mass. You lower insulin, which causes you to retain less water. This is when your friends and family will start to ask you, "What are you doing? You look great." And you could share this video with them.
A fact number five, a brain reset. Look, within days of doing this, your brain is going to feel much clearer. So many people have brain fog. It's like driving your car with a foggy windshield and suddenly somebody wipes it clean. You could see clearly now. Within just 2 to 3 days, mental clarity will improve for you, allowing you to be productive and tackle challenges at work or at home or just your day-to-day activities. Just 4 days into this, you'll notice consistent focus and clarity throughout the entire day. By week two, sharper memory, which is important to prevent cognitive decline as you age. See, by getting enough protein, you improve neurotransmitters. You lower brain inflammation, neuroinflammation. See, many people struggle with brain fog because they're underfueled.
All right. Fact number six, metabolic flexibility. That is the goal for all of you, my friends. By weeks 2 to four, your relationship with food changes. You stop thinking about food all day long. No more constant cravings. No more having to snack in between meals and spike insulin. And this happens within 2 weeks. Fewer cravings. By week three, you can go longer without eating and feel fine. By week four, you'll have steady energy levels even when skipping meals and intentionally or unintentionally practicing fasting. This is because insulin sensitivity improves, which is important to prevent things like insulin resistance and diabetes. And that protein activates these satiety hormones and mechanisms. Cholacyinine, peptide Y, leptin. You don't really need to memorize those hormones and chemicals, but know this. When you get enough protein, you activate them so you're full and satiated. No need to snack.
Effect number seven is aging control. Here's the thing that most people don't understand. Aging isn't just about time. It's about how your body breaks down and rebuilds. See, after 40, your body shifts into breakdown mode. You lose muscle, recovery slows, and cells repair less efficiently. It's like your body going from construction mode to demolition mode. But when you increase your protein, you flip the switch back. And within just two to three weeks of doing this, you're going to notice quicker recovery from workouts, recovery and soreness, and maybe a recovery in between injuries. By week four, strength and mobility will improve. This could help to prevent falls and just enjoy your day-to-day life. By month two, your body feels resilient, giving you confidence to age properly and just enjoy your life. You see, by getting enough protein, you activate muscle protein synthesis, which means muscle loss slows and cellular repair improves. This is the difference between aging fast and aging well.
So, you might be wondering, how much protein do I need, Ben? You made the case. I need to get enough protein. What is that amount? Do I need 100 g? Not exactly. Here is the rule of thumb I want you to follow. Starting today, aim to get 0.7 to 1.0 gram of protein per pound of your ideal body weight. Your ideal body weight, that's the goal weight you want to get to. So, if you currently weigh 225 lbs, but you want to get to 175 lbs, then your goal is to get 0.7 to 1.0 g of 175 g in this example. So, I'll give you one more example here to make this clear. If your goal weight is 150 lbs, that means every day you should be consuming between 100 gram to 150 g of protein. And look, it doesn't have to be perfect. Just more than what you're getting right now to get these benefits.
Now, a lot of people struggle to hit their protein consistently. And if you don't hit your protein, none of this will work the way I want it to work for you. And that's why a lot of people get stuck. They feel like they're doing everything right, but they're missing this one signal their body actually needs. So, what can you do? Personally, what I use and what I recommend to all my students is a clean, highquality protein powder. The one that I personally use is from Equip Foods.

I would scroll down and you could add their grass-fed collagen, which is also I'll get vanilla here to the cart because the protein builds muscle.

I personally like to mix it either in my coffee or with unsweetened macadamia nut milk or unsweetened coconut milk and ice. There you have it, a protein rich fat burning shake. When you do this consistently, you're going to notice a difference in just 7 to 14 days. So, give it 7 to 14 days so you can notice those differences.
Now, before I go, here are some important questions you submitted that I want to talk about. What if I hit my protein but nothing changes? Look, it's about consistency. I always say to my students, stick and stay. It's bound to pay. Your body needs this signal every day. Or it goes back to that survival mode. Why do I feel full but still have low energy? Because you're simply eating calories but not getting these essential amino acids, these very important proteins. See, you might feel full, but your body and your cells might still feel defeated or under supplied because it's not getting enough protein. What's the fastest way to hit 100 g without overthinking it? Simple. One shake with one scoop of equip protein or two scoops of equip prime protein and two scoops of the collagen with macadamia nut milk or coconut milk. And then two high protein meals. So steak, eggs with the yolk, organic chicken and poultry, or even lamb or wild caught fish like salmon and sardines. That's it. No tracking, no stress. Don't worry about calories. That's it.
What happens if I ignore this after 40? Well, like many people, they lose muscle. You will lose muscle. Your metabolism could become dysfunctional, which makes it harder to lose fat year after year. And look, if your belly fat hasn't moved in months, even though you're doing everything right, this might be another reason why. hidden inflammation, insulin resistance, your body could be stuck in this fat storage mode. That's exactly why I created my 14-day belly fat burning plan. It's a very simple system, no guesswork, and it is in theory. I've applied it to many like John, who lost 40 over 40 lbs in the first 30 days, and Gail has lost over 120 lbs total.
