Building a Good Energy Meal

About this episode

Send us a text

In this episode, we explore Chapter 6 of Good Energy by Dr. Casey Means, diving into the practical and science-backed approach to creating meals that fuel metabolic health and sustained energy. We break down the key components of a “Good Energy” plate—whole, nutrient-dense foods that stabilize blood sugar, support mitochondria, and reduce inflammation.

Tune in as we discuss how to balance macros, the importance of fiber and healthy fats, and which ingredients to prioritize (and which to avoid) for optimal cellular function. Whether you’re overhauling your diet or just looking for smarter food choices, this conversation will leave you inspired to eat with energy in mind.

All of these ideas are further discussed in more detail in our book, Stop Chasing Wellness: Create It.
