Casey Means on Core Biomarker Testing: recommends
Dr. Casey Means teaches biomarker literacy — fasting insulin and glucose, HDL, triglycerides — as a personal “health scorecard.” On the Moonshots podcast, Means described biomarkers as the measurable readout of metabolic health, and her free site guide, “How To Know If Your Cells Are Making Good Energy,” covers six basic lab tests with interpretation guidance.
Means’s stated reasoning is that metabolic dysfunction is widespread and underdetected, and that individuals should learn to read their own markers — including fasting insulin, glucose, triglycerides, HDL, HbA1c, and waist circumference — rather than relying solely on the clinical system. Biomarker literacy, in her framework, is the foundation of the self-experimentation approach she also promotes through CGMs.
