Today I sit down with my good friend Dr. Casey Means. We are discussing all things metabolic health, the state of health care, and GOOD ENERGY!



About Good Energy:

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?

The truth is, they do. And our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions - and feel incredible NOW - is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function: the way we make energy in our cells and bodies. The ability to make good energy in our bodies is the most important and least understood factor in our overall health, and the biggest blindspot in healthcare.



About Dr. Casey:

Casey Means, MD is a Stanford-trained physician and co-founder of Levels, a health technology company with the mission of reversing the world’s metabolic health crisis. Her book on metabolic health, Good Energy, comes out in May 2024 with Penguin Random House. She received her BA with honors and MD from Stanford, was President of her Stanford class, and has served on Stanford faculty. She trained in Head & Neck Surgery before leaving traditional medicine to devote her life to tackling the root cause of why Americans are sick. She has been featured in The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Women’s Health, and more.

I have been sleeping on an Essentia organic mattress for years. It is the most comfortable, zero-toxin mattress I have ever slept on. Not only is it non-toxic, but this is a sleep performance mattress. Learn more about the toxins in a standard mattress and why your mattress is so impactful on your sleep.

“My journey began after experiencing a family member’s battle with cancer, after being made aware of the toxins in everyday items we struggled to find a mattress that offered pressure relief and posture support without introducing toxins to the bedroom. I realized at that point how important this was not only for someone battling disease, but also healthy people.That’s when Essentia was born, 18 years later and we’re more than just the world’s healthiest mattresses. Essentia has revolutionized sleep and how it impacts your environment. The frenzy of the bed-in-a-box has reached absurd heights today, yet nothing has changed as far as health and wellness of the products being offered. This is where Essentia stands alone, providing products made with natural and organic components and unparalleled quality without compromise.People everywhere have realized the importance of healthy, natural choices during the 16 hours they’re awake. With sleep as the foundation of wellness, we’re determined to fill that same need for the eight hours they’re asleep.”
