"Jeff Krasno masterfully delves into how embracing life's challenges can profoundly transform our health and well-being. As someone who has dedicated my life to teaching the power of growing your own food-specifically sprouting-I was thrilled to see Jeff spotlight this practice as a prime example of 'good stress.' The process of sprouting, especially broccoli sprouts, embodies the hermetic effect, where a little stress at the cellular level triggers powerful health benefits, including boosting our body's defenses and activating sulforaphane production. This book beautifully guides us back to our roots, to reconnect with nature, and reclaim our well-being. It's a must-read for anyone ready to tap into the life-changing benefits of doing hard things for a healthier, more vibrant future."
- Doug Evans, author of The Sprout Book

This transformative book is essential for anyone seeking to harness the power of 'in-convenience' to achieve optimal health and well-being."

This book beautifully weaves ancient teachings on impermanence and interconnection with practical protocols that challenge the body and mind, showing us that true growth comes from embracing life's hard edges. It's a must-read for anyone ready to unlock the healing potential of 'good stress.'"

"In Good Stress, Jeff Krasno masterfully illustrates the profound impact evolutionary mismatches have on our health and well-being. This book dives deep into the science of why our modern comfort-filled life, while seemingly benign, is at odds with our genetic makeup. With a focus on the transformative power of fasting-a topic near to my practice-and other eustress protocols, Jeff provides a compelling blueprint for realigning our lifestyle with our biology. This is not just a book; it's a call to action to embrace the stressors that refine us, challenge us, and ultimately lead us to a vibrant life.
