Resumen del Editor

A bold new vision for optimizing our health now and in the future

What if depression, anxiety, infertility, insomnia, heart disease, erectile dysfunction, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s, dementia, cancer and many other health conditions that torture and shorten our lives actually have the same root cause?

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this groundbreaking book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our physical and mental wellbeing.

If you are battling minor signals of “bad energy” inside your body, it is often a warning sign that more life-threatening illness may emerge later in life. But here’s the good news: for the first time ever, we can monitor our metabolic health in great detail and learn how to improve it ourselves.

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:

• The five biomarkers that determine your risk for a deadly disease.
• How to use inexpensive tools and technology to “see inside your body” and take action.
• Why dietary philosophies are designed to confuse us, and six lifelong food principles you can implement whether you’re carnivore or vegan.
• The crucial links between sleep, circadian rhythm, and metabolism
• A new framework for exercise focused on building simple movement into everyday activities
• How cold and heat exposure helps build our body’s resilience
• Steps to navigate the medical system to get what you need for optimal health

Good Energy offers a new, cutting-edge understanding of the true cause of illness that until now has remained hidden. It will help you optimize your ability to live well and stay well at every age.

* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF containing Part 3: The Good Energy Plan and Part 4: Good Energy Recipes from the book.

Empowering.

Great information!

very informative. but too many lists and numbers to follow in an audible book. better if it was noted in the pdf. also some of the terms were lost on me, maybe take more time to explain in a story like way rather than reading lists. I did love the info and hope everyone gets to understand this stuff. I have listened to a couple of chapters several times to absorb it!!

Absolutely Spectacular! Good Energy will be a must read 100 years from now!

Good Energy should be required reading for every medical school student globally. Dr Casey Means presents a first principles approach to thriving health, full of heart-wrenching personal anecdotes, actionable foundation of daily habits to change your life, and a sober and truthful look at the misalignment of incentives in our food, hospitals, and pharma companies that lead to issues that are immediately solvable with a new foundational approach to health. This book lands like a lightning bolt - stunning in its clarity, optimism for immediate change, and boldly speaking truth to power while calling for personal empowerment for immediate change towards limitless health.

Awesome reference

Awesome book. Through reference that ties in and cohesively cites so many other excellent books and podcasts on health and wellness. It is tough to live up to all of the recommendations, but I’m already well along the journey. I will be recommending to all my friends and family.

Great information and easily understandable

This book is full of fantastic information and delivered in such a way that most if not everyone can easily understand, or at least get the big picture items. The content in this book made me reevaluate areas of my lifestyle that I thought were good and reconsider how good in this context should be defined.

The Choice is Ours: Authentic or Artificial Health

What stood out to me most is the clear delineation and differences between what our bodies need to sustain “Good Energy” naturally versus what we’re being offered and programmed to accept artificially. I really appreciate the degree and depth of their insights and inspiration provided to their listeners and readers! Great work!
