Synopsis:
Your Body Is Your Home, Build It With Functional Medicine
How well are you aging? Were you told your labs are normal but you don’t feel normal? Has conventional medicine been nothing but a Band-Aid? Are you ready to try something different? Many health care providers want to help their patients but don’t know how, and many patients wait until their symptoms are causing problems before they see a provider. Both patients and providers can benefit from a guide to aging well.
In Dr. Stephanie Gray’s Your Longevity Blueprint, you’ll learn how you can use functional medicine to:
*RESTORE YOUR GUT HEALTH
*KEEP YOUR SPINE IN LINE *INFLUENCE YOUR GENETICS
*REPLETE NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES *DETOXIFY YOUR BODY
*OPTIMIZE YOUR HORMONES
*REDUCE CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
*STRENGTHEN YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
Your body is your home, and your functional medicine provider will act as your body’s contractor and builder–giving your body the foundation, framework, and electricity it’s always needed. Where conventional medicine treats symptoms, functional medicine discovers the root cause. This is determined by your test results, what Dr. Stephanie Gray calls your fingerprint. Learn how functional medicine assesses the interaction of nutrition, genetics, hormones, toxins, and infections to improve your health and overall longevity.
Imagine what life would be like with true health. Let’s live long together! Wellness is Waiting™!
What I Thought:
I wish I had read this book sooner. I wish I had this book at the time of my MS diagnosis. I was so impressed with this book that I’ve added it to my 5 steps to thriving with MS guide that I created to help those diagnosed with MS navigate the holistic world of healing.
This is an amazing book for proactive and reactive health. I love that it breaks down different systems and functionality of the body and provides tips and tricks as well as testing practices you can discuss in person with your own functional medicine practitioner or naturopath.
