the reasons why Americans are getting sicker every year are very simple. Americans want to be healthy. Americans do not want to die early. They do not want to see their kids with all these chronic health issues like autism and food allergies and obesity and prediabetes and 40% of teens with mental health issues.

It is entitled Good Energy, the surprising connection between metabolism and limitless health.
I've read your book and because I follow your work very closely the good news is that we each and all can take matters to some extent into our own hands collaborate with healthcare providers and repair metabolic dysfunction essentially make us metabolically functional.
I give scripts to literally talk to your doctor with because you are going to get pushed back often if you ask for a fasting insulin I would say probably I mean even though doctors are waking up a little bit like maybe 85 percent of people are going to have their doctors say they won't order that for them so I actually think there's a huge benefit I hate to say it but like going outside the system this is where I think innovation has been valuable there's a lot of like amazing companies doing direct to consumer lab testing so you can basically avoid the hassle and some of them are very affordable.
Megyn Kelly and several guests repeatedly highlighted the title as a must‑read, noting its clear explanation of how metabolism ties to chronic disease and the impact of ultra‑processed foods. They praised its focus on regenerative agriculture and practical, actionable advice for improving health, describing it as an empowering and essential read. The overall tone was strongly supportive, urging listeners to buy and read the book.

This book, Good Energy, the surprising connection between metabolism and limitless health.
The unique thing about this moment in time that we're living right now is that our world has radically changed, just exponential rate of change over the past 100 or so years with industrialization and urbanization and technological advancement.
So what the chronic disease epidemic really represents is this just sheer and utter confusion of our bodies with the signals that it's getting from all around us.
And so I think that it is helpful to talk a little bit about the walking that you were talking about because I think this is very free and practical and actionable for people.

It's not an overstatement to say that I learned virtually nothing at Stanford Medical School about the tens of thousands of scientific papers that elucidate these root causes of why American health is plummeting and how environmental factors are causing it.
For each additional serving of ultra-processed food we eat, early mortality increases by 18 percent. This now makes up 67 percent of the foods our kids are eating.

The book focuses on metabolic health and its impact on overall well-being.

And I think the easiest way to kind of really paint the picture of all of this and how I've come to this somewhat radical conclusion is actually to just share a personal story if you don't mind. It's actually about my mother.
And the point of this is that when it comes to chronic conditions, unfortunately the health care system does not deserve our trust because the treatment of these chronic conditions has been an abject failure.
And the beauty of why we can trust ourselves more in the healthcare system is because we have tools now to understand our metabolic health in great granularity for ourselves.
And that thing is what I present as what I call bad energy in the book, otherwise known as metabolic dysfunction, a fundamental problem with how our 40 trillion cells produce energy to let them do their work in the body.
The book was highlighted as a collaborative work by Callie Means and his sister, focusing on the link between metabolism, a poisoned food system, and the need for preventive healthcare. Bari Weiss mentioned Callie's role as a co‑author, while Megyn Kelly discussed its critique of current food and medical practices. Both hosts presented it as a noteworthy perspective on health and nutrition.

And the realization that really prompted this book is that we are buying into a system that is predicated essentially on a lie, which is the fact that the body is somehow separated into like 100 different parts.
So I think the first thing to realize is that that $5 price tag is not actually what it really is.
So the real cost of that happy meal is actually probably $20.
It is good energy, the surprising connection between metabolism and limitless health.
