Your Longevity Blueprint: Building A Healthier Body Through Functional Medicine

Ok, but it pushes her products way too much
The anecdotal stories didn’t do anything for me. The corny metaphor about building a house got lost on me. I want facts, figures, what I can do specifically on my own, as to dietary and lifestyle changes to improve my health. A chapter or two gave me some ideas, but I didn’t get that much out of the book. Constantly pushing ‘See a functional medicine doctor, take my products’ turned me off. Empower me, not your profession and pocketbook.

Functional medicine made easy
I am a family physician who spends a lot of my time with my patients trying to teach them how to experience their best health. Our country and many other societies are dealing with an epidemic of chronic diseases that are stealing the health of families and communities. Our current healthcare system's approach to this issue has been reactive rather than proactive. We have to understand and treat the root causes of these diseases and also promote the habits that potentiate health. Dr. Gray's book is an easy to read and understand resource that anybody can use to begin to transform and optimize their personal health. She simplifies and clarifies complex topics and gives the reader clear action steps to help them on their journey of health. She clearly has a heart for the people she serves. I have recommended this book to many of my patients who need to deepen their understanding of health. I am thankful that Dr. Gray applied her experience, wisdom, and energy to providing this helpful and powerful resource to all of us. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who seeks truthful answers to the actual causes of our chronic diseases and wants to experience their best health.Gus Vickery MD

Full of Useful, Understandable Information!
I purchased Dr. Stephanie's book after seeing a FB Live she did with Dr. Axe. I am familiar with functional medicine. This book is written in a way that is easy to understand. This is a very informative book, especially for someone just beginning to learn about the root cause of illness, and not wanting to band-aid disease with a pharmaceutical. Very helpful to help figure what needs to be addressed to heal! Thank you for writing this book Dr. Stephanie!

A look at medicine outside the box
First word that comes to mind when reading this book, astonishing. Your eyes will be open to TRUE medicine. EVERY doctor needs to practice this way and unfortunately they don’t. Dr. Gray spent years upon years studying, training and gaining experience in this field of medicine. Dr. Gray is a genius and does an amazing job expressing this knowledge in this book. This is a must read. If you suffer with any type of ailment and have been for a long time, been to every doctor and only got worse with all the medications they gave you then, READ THIS BOOK!

A Blueprint for Healthy Aging!
I highly recommend this excellent book. Dr. Gray writes in an engaging way and I learned a lot of new info about which tests to take and working with a functional doc. I love her example that your body is like a house. You need a strong foundation for everything to work together. I appreciated her approach that you can work on one room in the house at a time. Have a ton of takeaways from reading this book.

Great book for the motivated patient
As a healthcare provider myself The Longevity Blueprint lays the foundation of how functional medicine can improve you and your patients quality of life. The book includes examples of many common struggles seen in primary care chapter by chapter. Taking it a step further, this book lays out safe, effective, and studied natural solutions. Great book for the motivated patient, or the eager healthcare provider looking to start finding the cause of many conditions. The diagnosis and medication doesn't tell us "why"....Longevity Blueprint explores deeper understanding of WHY these conditions and diagnosis occur, and how to FIX and reverse the condition, not mask the symptoms.
