A diagnosis should not be your destiny.In this manifesto for taking charge of your own health, a cancer victor and…
specialist in functional medicine provides a unique program that gets to the root of your chronic health issues.After conquering a life-threatening disease, Dr. Robert Zembroski—“Dr. Z,” as his patients call him—challenged himself to thrive in the wake of devastating illness. Now, in Rebuild, he offers a comprehensive plan developed from years of both personal and professional experience. As Dr. Z says, “What I did for myself and my patients, this book can do for you.”Rebuild provides simple yet proven guidelines to ensure that what you eat, how you exercise, and how you manage other aspects of your lifestyle contribute to your personal recovery and to the level of health you want to achieve. Dr. Z’s advice is radically practical: no fads and no extremes; just sound, actionable strategies rooted in real science. Leveraging cutting-edge research in epigenetics and the root causes of chronic illness, Rebuild can help you prevent disease and aid your recovery from cancer, heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune disease, and other chronic health issues.

help you prevent disease, bounce back from illness, and manage life's ups and downs—all while achieving a greater sense of well-being, now and for the rest of your life.There's no way around it: the human body is designed to get sick. Illness is the body's way of calling attention to a bigger problem. Aches and pains—whether annoying or debilitating, acute or chronic—mean that something's out of balance. What they don't mean is that you're not in control. Because your body takes its cues from your thoughts and emotions—and not the other way around—you can take control of your health, rather than letting your health take control of you. In Your Health Destiny, Dr. Eva Selhub shows you how. After treating thousands of patients with a myriad of health problems—from heart disease and cancer to depression and anxiety—Dr. Selhub discovered that simple and easy-to-implement shifts in lifestyle, attitude, and overall approach to stress not only reduce your reliance on conventional medicine but, more important, prevent and reverse all types of disease before they can take root. Bringing together timeless Eastern practices with cutting-edge Western research, Dr. Selhub teaches you how to tap into the powerful connection between your mind and body, and, in the process, jump-start your body's built-in healing capabilities. Proactive and prescriptive, this revolutionary program puts the power of health back into your hands, now and for the rest of your life.Coretta: The Autobiography of Mrs. Coretta Scott King
