Quite simply, you can maximize health across the board with one simple diet—a whole food diet consisting of a variety of different foods from plants, including vegetables, fruits, seeds, nuts and pulses.

EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: good Energy, ie., metabolic health, refers to the set of cellular mechanisms that transform food into energy that can power every single cell in the body so that you can feel vital and enlivened and function with clarity of mind. Thus you can enjoy balanced weight, a pain free body, healthy skin and a stable mood.
Almost every chronic health symptom that Western medicine addresses is the result of our cells being beleaguered by how we’ve come to live. Bad energy leads to broken cells, broken organs, broken bodies and the pain you feel. Disease isn’t some random occurrence that might happen in the future. it is the result of the choices you make and how you are feeling today. Conditions like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, arthritis, infertility, or chronic pain will lead to a “major” illness sometime later in life if nothing changes in how you care for your body. ~ Casey Means MD, author of Good Energy.
EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: compared to one hundred years ago, we are consuming astronomically more sugar (ie., up to 3000 percent more liquid fructose), working in more sedentary jobs, and sleeping twenty five percent less. We’re also exposed to over 80,000 synthetic chemicals, in our food, water and air. ~ Casey Means MD, author of Good Energy. Micro plastics too, research is showing to be a deadly modern input.
EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: depression, anxiety, acne, infertility, insomnia, heart disease, high blood pressure, retinal problems, chronic kidney disease, erectile dysfunction, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and most other conditions that torture and shorten our lives are actually rooted in the same thing, disrupted metabolic health. In the brain, Bad Energy can look like depression, stroke, dementia or migraine.
EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: it is understood that when life energy currents are blocked, pain and disease result. This pain can be experienced on many levels, I.e, physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: and the ability to prevent and reverse those conditions - and feel incredible today - is under your control and simpler than you think. ~ Casey Means MD, author of Good Energy.
