Hey everyone, welcome to the Dr. Josh Axe Show.

I am your host, Dr. Josh Axe.

In each and every week, I cover the science and principles and how to grow in body, mind,

spirit, and take your health and your life to the next level.

On today's episode, I have Dr. Casey Means.

She's a Stanford trained physician, the chief medical officer officer and co-founder of the metabolic health

company levels, which I have used their continuous blood glucose monitor and absolutely love it

and recommended it to many patients and clients over the years. And we're going to dive into a lot of

things today. We're going to cover why health care spending is increasing. And I'm going to ask you the question, why are we getting sicker today? When you're going to get why healthcare spending is increasing.

And I'm going to ask you the question, why are we getting sicker today?

When you look at the numbers of people getting metabolic conditions, it continues to increase,

even though we're spending more and more money.

Also, we'll get into different emotions like fear and how that affects metabolic health.

We're going to get all the blood work, blood testing, and talk about something called good

energy, which is mitochondrial health. There's something called mitochondria, which is like the

engine for yourselves. If you keep that healthy, you're going to have good energy. If not, you won't.

So we'll get into all that and more. Dr. welcome the show so happy to be here thank you for having me well i know um
