Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health

A bold new vision for optimizing our health now and in the future from a medical doctor and pioneer in health technology

A few years ago, Dr. Casey Means was in her surgical residency at a prestigious hospital when she realized a pattern: The patients were not getting better. She became frustrated with the way traditional medicine silos health conditions into specialties and only treats symptoms, ignoring the root cause of disease. This insight led Dr. Means to discover a revolutionary, but simple idea: Nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how the cells in our body function, that is, our metabolic health. To live free from disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create good energy.

As Dr. Means explains, if you are battling "minor" health issues like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, or infertility, it's important to realize that the underlying cause of these conditions is generally the same as what will lead to a "major" illness like cancer, heart disease, stroke, or dementia sometime later in life. But here's the powerfully good news: Improving good energy is simple, and it is in our control.

Weaving together cutting-edge research and personal stories, as well as groundbreaking data from the health technology company Dr. Means founded, Good Energy offers an essential four-week plan and explains:

• How to read your blood tests and gain actionable insight from wearable biosensors
• Simple, groundbreaking strategies to blunt glucose spikes, including meal timing, nutrition pairings, and advice on exercise
• Essential foods to power your cells and stop inflammation--and the "unholy trinity" of foods to avoid
• The crucial links between sleep, circadian rhythm, and metabolism
• How cold and heat exposure helps build our body's resilience

Good Energy will empower you with information about how your body functions, so that you can optimize your ability to get well and stay well as you age.
