Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health Hardcover – 14 May 2024

I found this book very educational and helpful

A good educational read. Have been following the advice as it makes perfect sense.

I’d read Metabolical by Dr Lustig (another brilliant book).This has overlaps, and I hesitated because if that, but a friend who lectures on nutrition recommended it so I bought it. (And subsequently bought another as a gift for a friend).It’s a great book for anyone wanting to get a lot healthier.It doesn’t just tell you how to do it, but gives all the science behind the advice right down to cellular level. At the same time, it’s not a difficult read. It’s well explained and easy to follow. Dr Means also gives pertinent examples from her medical career and personal life.Extremely well-researched, and is a positive life changer.If you have kids you really must get this.

Well written and thorough. I enjoyed reading this book. I would say if you are a novice around health you will get immense benefit but if you are already relatively well researched you won’t find a special nugget here. Very much attuned to an American diet but the takeaways can be applied elsewhere.Praise for how accessible the writing style is as for many even a tiny bit of science confuses.

This book is a must read. It should be distributed for free and taught in schools. Your health is everything!

I have read and practiced a lot of these disciplines and principles over the years, but this book brings everything together in such a logical way, and with human compassion and empathy for the patient. The healthcare system is broken by crony capitalism, and through Pharma, Educational Institutions, and government policy all inflicting harm on human life with little care for the consequences. How anyone in this industry can support this agenda, inflicted on society by the usual money men, who have simply used the Ponzi scheme of debt, and taxpayer capital to transfer mass wealth to a very few elites is disgusting and incomprehensible to the everyday person. I read this book, and Dr Casey gives me faith that there are a good few people left fighting against this, but we must all wake up and be tougher with our children and out families to ensure they are eating, resting, educating themselves on the challenges we face in the face of a “Evil System”. I will advocate this book to all, and keep it close to my side to keep me motivated. I wish everyone great cellular energy and spiritual awakening to break the great evil that is upon us from the elites. “United we stand, divided we Fall” bless

In the vein of Peter Attia's book outlive although this book is easier to read. Must read for all parties interested in health and well being.

As someone who has had very low energy for the last 34 years, I have read a lot of books such as this. There are some interesting snippets of information, but much of the advice is impractical. She asks, "If simple habits like eating whole food, getting enough sleep, practising regular movement and managing stress are so transformational, why do so few people consistently perform them? " If it was so easy to do all these things, then we would have done them. If people have poor mitochondrial function then they are often in a vicious cycle as regards exercise. Post-exertional malaise may mean that exercise makes things worse. If someone has poor sleep and none of the sleep hygiene guidelines have fixed it, then that is a constant drain on energy. The chapter called Four Weeks to Good Energy sounds like a way to turn your life into a treadmill. Some suggestions should be aimed at those people who don't have enough energy to implement the full recommendations.
