Dr. Means trained as an ENT surgeon at Stanford University before deciding that our current profit driven sickcare model was the problem, not the solution, for most of the issues she was treating, and that she would rather serve patients in a different capacity. This led her to become a functional medicine practitioner, and later to help found the company Levels, which uses continuous glucose monitors to help people glean insights into their metabolic health and learn how to make improvements therein. Now, she’s written “Good Energy”, which has been on the NY Times bestseller list for the past few months.
