Unconventional Medicine

By: Chris Kresser

Narrated by: Chris Kresser

The world is facing the greatest healthcare crisis it has ever seen. Chronic disease is shortening our lifespan, destroying our quality of life, bankrupting governments, and threatening the health of future generations. Sadly, conventional medicine, with its focus on managing symptoms, has failed to address this challenge. The result is burned-out physicians, a sicker population, and a broken healthcare system.

In Unconventional Medicine, Chris Kresser presents a plan to reverse this dangerous trend. He shows how the combination of functional medicine, an ancestral diet and lifestyle, and a collaborative practice model can create a system that better serves the needs of both patients and practitioners.

The epidemic of chronic disease can be stopped if patients and practitioners can adapt.

knowledge... this is so amazing best I've heard i

I've heard in a long time... everyone needs to read this book before it's too late!

great information

the information in this book is incredibly timely and important. as the reader Chris is tonality is excellent sorry I'm writing this while voice typing overall I think the only thing that could be improved is more stories that help us to understand how functional medicine came to be and maybe how fun functional medicine ended up dominating our current Healthcare System

Inspiring and Informational

Great information, but you need to keep in mind the book seems to be geared primarily towards healthcare professionals. I've already started sharing as much of his information as I can and will continue to do so. I truly hope his vision for what a healthcare system COULD look like comes to fruition.

The performance could have been better.

if the performer would have just talked it through instead of reading it it would have been better

Loved it.

While it took some adjustment to get used to Chris narration tone, the content of the book was so rich and informative that you quickly forget about it. Chris offers great insight and truly breaks down the differences between functional medicine, integrative medicine, and functional medicine. I recommend this book to any healthcare provider/worker/patient. We have to be aware that there are more options to how we approach healthcare, with functional medicine being a valid scientific and more effective approach for chronic conditions compared to the current conventional medicine. At the very least, this book should have you take an honest audit on your own approach to healthcare and ignite or fuel your desire for something greater.
