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.

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.
