11h53m |
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 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 wellbeing.

This book will improve your life!
This is a book that I will recommend to everyone! I consider myself a very health-conscious person. I do what I can to take care of my health, and that includes frequently reading about and listening to podcasts on the subject.
Oftentimes reading/listening to topics like this can be very difficult to follow or comprehend, or the authors are a little disconnected from reality for the common person when recommending changes that people need to make in their lives (e.g. I enjoyed Peter Attia's book "Outlive," but most people don't have the resources that he has available to himself to do a lot of the things he recommends like getting full body scans and getting access to a CGM).
This book makes it very easy to understand why we should be doing certain things in our lives to improve our health, and why our healthcare system in this country is ultimately designed to fail us and isn't something we should rely on.
The author makes recommendations that are easily actionable for anybody to implement into their daily lives. I'm not saying that everyone will be able to do everything she recommends in the book (let's face it, as much as I would like a CGM I can't afford it as an OOP expense and most people are probably in the same boat as me), but taking small steps can lead to big changes in your health and she recommends many things that are easily actionable; adjusting your exercise habits, sleeping habits, thinking about the foods/drinks that you are consuming but shouldn't be (or aren't consuming but should be!), providing healthy recipe options, etc.
Bottom line: this book is worth the time/money to invest in and will pay you back in spades!
