, Praise for Good Energy
“A tour de force on how metabolism underpins most major diseases and
what we can do to feel better and live longer. Everyone will benefit from
reading Good Energy.”
—Mark Hyman, MD, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Young Forever
“In Good Energy, Dr. Means makes a bold case for why food—and
particularly regenerative agriculture—must be at the very center of health
care. Dr. Means makes it clear that we can’t drug our way out of a broken
food system.”
—Will Harris, regenerative agriculture leader and owner of White Oak Pastures
“In Good Energy, Casey and Calley Means powerfully explain how we can
use metabolic health tools and strategies to support our own health and that
of our children and families.”
—Kelly LeVeque, nutritionist and author of Body Love
“Good Energy should be required reading for every medical student and
healthcare practitioner. As a system and as individuals, we must adopt a
metabolic, mitochondria-focused lens for health and vitality. Autoimmunity
—along with many other chronic illnesses—is closely tied to metabolic
dysfunction and insulin resistance. Foundational to better energy and health
outcomes is getting metabolic health and blood sugar under control. Dr.
Means shows readers how.”
—Terry Wahls, MD, author of The Wahls Protocol
“Dr. Casey Means brilliantly illuminates the pivotal role of disturbed
metabolism in setting the stage for chronic degenerative diseases, and offers
a comprehensive road map for enhancing and maintaining metabolic health.
This book is a must-read for health care professionals and individuals alike
,who are seeking to understand and improve their overall health. With her
insightful and loving guidance, Dr. Means is handing us the keys to the
kingdom for prolonging our health span, making this book a game-
changing, invaluable resource in our journey toward lasting wellness.”
—David Perlmutter, MD, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Grain Brain and
Drop Acid
“There’s no life without energy. Our mitochondria know how to capture
chemical energy and optimize it. But what if our cells are poisoned? Think
cyanide; think heavy metals. Now think alcohol, sugar, trans fats, all the
environmental toxins that inhibit your mitochondria from their capacity. Dr.
Casey Means brings the problem of cellular energy front and center to
explain what’s really wrong in chronic disease, why medicines won’t fix it,
why she walked away from a promising surgical career, how to remake our
entire health and health care paradigm to save lives and money, and who’s
blocking it. Part memoir, part manifesto, this book proves there isn’t
another voice in the zeitgeist as cogent, urgent, and powerful as Casey’s.
The gauntlet’s been thrown down—consider yourself warned.”
