Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health
This book presents a revolutionary approach to optimizing our health, both now and in the future. It challenges the idea that conditions like depression, anxiety, infertility, insomnia, heart disease, erectile dysfunction, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, dementia, and cancer are unrelated, suggesting instead that they share a common root cause.
Dr. Casey Means argues that our overall health is largely determined by our metabolic function—how well our cells create and utilize energy. According to her, many health problems can be traced back to poor metabolic function, which affects both our physical and mental well-being.
The book offers a four-week plan to improve metabolic health by understanding and monitoring key biomarkers, using affordable tools to track progress, and adopting six fundamental food principles. It also explores the connection between sleep, circadian rhythm, and metabolism, introduces a new exercise framework, and discusses how temperature exposure can boost resilience. Additionally, it provides guidance on navigating the medical system to achieve optimal health.
By combining cutting-edge research, personal stories, and innovative data from Dr. Means' health technology company, the book provides a comprehensive guide to improving health at any age and preventing serious illnesses in the future.
