Good Energy Cookbook - Recipes to Increase Your Metabolism: 100 Recipes for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

Raising one's metabolic rate is not just about increasing energy levels - it's also about getting runaway weight gain under control, which is important for those of us who are over the age of forty and are watching our bodies slow down, whether we want to slow down or not. A healthy diet that emphasizes slow carbs, lean meats, adequate hydration, and adequate calories to support exercise is easier for many of us to sustain than other forms of dieting, so this cookbook is welcome.

Some of the recipes in here would be easy to use for a slow burn during an intermittent fast, although for the most part, the book assumes a "grazing" habit. Adding almond butter and almond milk to steel-cut porridge oats is one way to make breakfast last. Whole-grain, protein-packed pancakes can be topped with fruit. Then there's the lentil scramble. Yummy! The fish and poultry dinners would be good reheat-and-eat breakfasts, for that matter.

I can't wait to try these recipes out!

Low energy keeps me from doing all that I'd like to accomplish in a day. I'm just getting started with this 28-day plan.

I will update next month.

I'm attracted to the easy recipes, attractive illustrations, and meticulous formatting.

The working links in the Reference Section take you to photos of recipes and interesting acticles.

This book is really helpful, simple quick and tasty recipes, great tips and awesome bonuses. Thanks Kay

Awesome cookbook! This cookbook has super nice images, great formatting and a ton of valuable, delicious recipes to try. I cant wait to make the turkey and rice soup as well as the oat and blueberry pancakes.

How is this book getting such high reviews. It doesn’t match the ideas put forth by Casey Means book as advertised. Recipes call for all purpose flour, refined pasta, heavy cream, bacon, etc. Super disappointed in this book.

Good Energy is for anyone. I found the recipes to be really user-friendly; no matter if your just starting out or a serious cook, it has great choices for you. This cookbook is perfect to help you improve their overall well-being.

I grabbed this cookbook because I’ve been feeling sluggish lately, and it’s made a real difference. The recipes are super doable—nothing fancy or hard to find—and I actually feel more energized after eating. I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks now and already have a few go-to meals I keep rotating. It’s helped me get back on track with better food choices without feeling like I’m dieting. Definitely worth it if you want to eat cleaner without the stress.

Why does eating healthy seem to be so hard to do. I hate cooking and planning meals. I just want to eat and have the energy from the food I eat give me a pick up rather than a crash. This book does just that. It kept me energized all day using the recommendations on eating for energy.
