Dr. Casey Means, a leading voice in metabolic health and co-founder of Levels Health, and author of the #1 NYT Bestselling book “Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health,” dives deep into the pervasive issue of metabolic dysfunction and its far-reaching implications on public health. Drawing from her extensive medical background and latest research, Dr. Means sheds light on the root causes of metabolic dysfunction, including lifestyle factors, environmental toxins, and systemic issues within the food industry.

Our conversation also examines the broken healthcare system, pointing out how a reactive, symptom-focused approach has contributed to the growing prevalence of chronic diseases. She advocates for a more preventative, holistic, and patient-centered approach, empowering individuals to advocate for themselves. She emphasizes the need for an outcomes-based incentive program for doctors vs the current system that relies on prescribing pharmaceuticals in order to earn money.

You will walk away with a clearer understanding of the links between metabolic health and broader societal issues, along with practical advice for reclaiming control over their own health in a system that often feels stacked against us. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about optimizing health, understanding the pitfalls of modern healthcare, or learning how to navigate the complexities of metabolic wellness in today’s world.
