I had been to medical school for 8 years, done 6 years of postgraduate training and had practiced as a cardiologist for another 8 years before I discovered the teachings of Jeffrey Bland. My medical practice was transformed in such a profound way that not only allowed me to get way better results with my patients ( with way less medications ) but also to enjoy doing it.Now anyone can learn these concepts and practices through this new book, which I consider a masterpiece.Do yourself a huge favor and read this book...
Dr. Bland has written a comprehensive, yet easy to understand introduction to functional medicine. He describes the various components that contribute to health based on a functional medicine approach. But then he goes a step further and weaves them together so that the reader gets a sense of how all these things are related and impact each other and thus overall health. As a scientist and health care practitioner, I have spent decades trying to explain these principles to my family and friends and keep giving them various books to read. But Dr. Bland's version of the functional medicine story is easier to understand, more complete, and more persuasive than anything I have come up with. He helps the reader to understand that the majority of the principles are based in biomedical science and a deeper understanding of the interrelationships of human physiology. Thus, he removes the stigma (and lack of credibility) that often accompanies alternative medicine writings. Is it the last word on the subject? Absolutely not. Does it have the details which a scientist or physician might want?--mostly not. But that is not the point: it is an essential first step --providing a roadmap for anyone who understands that they need to take responsibility for their own health. If we are ever going to tackle and try to solve the burgeoning U.S. chronic health problems, this book should be mandatory reading for all high schoolers and their parents.
There is a lot to like in Jeffery's book. It explains why conventional medicine doesn't work for chronic illness, because it just treats symptoms and creates side-effects. It talks about using nutrition and natural plant-based supplements as vital components of true healing. It has good information about the different systems of your body, how they interconnect, and how interventions affect the entire network of your body.So why the three-star rating? Jeffery makes some recommendations and uses some protocols that are actively dangerous, and can make you very sick. Then there are many recommendations that are not optimal, and a number of key things that are missing.--- Dangerous ---(1) Jeffery describes diagnosing and treating a patient with mercury poisoning, using a "challenge" test, where the patient is given a high dose of a chelator, followed by measuring the change in mercury content of his/her urine. The idea is that a large increase shows that mercury has been stored in his/her body, and that he/she needs to clear it to recover good health. The problem is that high single doses of a chelator mobilize mercury, move it around, and if it settles in the wrong place it can cause serious, possibly permanent damage. Google "DMPS backfire" for some examples. DMSA and EDTA, the other common challenge tests, have the same issue.The correct way to diagnose and treat chronic mercury toxicity, and other heavy metal poisoning, is through a hair test, using Andy Cutler's diagnostic protocols. (See his book on Hair Test Interpretation: Finding Hidden Toxicities.) This is completely safe and indicates total body burden, as compared to blood/urine tests which do not show what has been stored in your brain/organs/bones.(2) Jeffery's week of sample menus includes a meal with 6.5 oz of tuna. The danger here is that tuna is a high-mercury fish, and albacore tuna can exceed 1 micro-gram/gram of mercury. So 6.5 ounces (about 200g) can give you 200ug of mercury. This is not something you want, ever, because a percentage of this will end up in your brain and organs and slowly poison you over time. (The half-life of mercury in the brain appears to be about 20 years.) Even light tuna is a high-mercury fish. If you are going to eat fish, eat Alaskan wild-caught salmon, or small fish like sardines.(3) Jeffery mentions andrographis. This is an excellent treatment for acute infections, but lowers progesterone and is used as a contraceptive/abortifact. Don't use it while you are pregnant or trying to conceive.--- Non-optimal ---(1) Jeffery doesn't have any way to treat heavy metal poisoning, except with nutrition, anti-oxidants, and time. These may help you feel better, but the only way to reduce body stores effectively is to chelate. The only chelation protocol that has been shown to be safe is frequent-low-dose chelation, which has been used by thousands of people. This process slowly clears the toxic metals from your body, without the risk of serious harm that comes from high intermittent doses. See Andy Cutler's book on Amalgam Illness, Diagnosis and Treatment : What You Can Do to Get Better, How Your Doctor Can Help for details.Because Jeffery doesn't use hair tests, he cannot diagnose people who have heavy metal poisoning as the root cause of their poor health. For example, he treated a patient for Gulf War post-traumatic-stress-syndrome. This was likely caused by the thimerosol in the multiple vaccines given to these soldiers. (The French did not use thimerosol in their vaccines, and their solders did not get PTSD.) If so, then this patient would have been properly diagnosed with a hair test, and returned to true good health via frequent-low-dose-chelation.Because many people have heavy metal poisoning, and heavy metal poisoning can cause any/all physical symptoms, a hair test for heavy metals should be the first test any health practitioner does for a new patient.(2) I'm surprised that someone who mentions Weston Price has such a phobia for saturated fat. Weston Price observed many traditional cultures with very high saturated fat intake. All of them were extremely healthy and long-lived, with excellent bones/teeth and no chronic degenerative diseases or dementia. Instead of taking this information to heart, Jeffery's nutrition advice is far from optimal. The best book on nutrition ever written is the Jaminet's Perfect Health Diet: Regain Health and Lose Weight by Eating the Way You Were Meant to Eat, much superior to what's in this book.(3) For food sensitivities and healing auto-immune disease, a much better book is Sarah Ballantyne's The Paleo Approach: Reverse Autoimmune Disease and Heal Your Body.(4) For treating thyroid/adrenal issues, the best diagnostic protocol appears to be temperature measurement twice a day, and supplementing with glandulars/thyroid until everything stabilizes appropriately. You don't even need to see a doctor. An enjoyable book describing this, and other helpful protocols, is Danial Forsyth's The Mercury Diaries.--- Missing ---(1) No mention of how posture affects health (poor posture is one of the key factors in osteoporosis and osteoarthritis). Best books for this are Esther Gokhale's 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back: Natural Posture Solutions for Pain in the Back, Neck, Shoulder, Hip, Knee, and Foot, Katy Bowman's Alignment Matters: The First Five Years of Katy Says, and any/all of Pete Egoscue's books. The Egoscue Clinics are extremely helpful in getting where you want to be.(2) No mention of proprioception and how blockages can affect health. Best/only book is Simon King's Live Without Pain: A New Theory on What's Wrong with You and How to Fix It..(3) No mention that our bodies are designed for frequent, low-intensity movement, and that this is essential for health. Best book is Joan Vernikos's Sitting Kills, Moving Heals: How Everyday Movement Will Prevent Pain, Illness, and Early Death -- and Exercise Alone Won't.(4) Jeffery does mention massage for improving lymph flow, but does not mention lymphatic drainage massage specifically, or medi-cupping, both of which excellent. Medi-cupping gets phenomenal results, highly recommended.
My wife and I read a lot about health and wellness since we are getting older. This is a good addition to all the other books we have on pharma, supplements, and holistic/functional medicine. We have started a program under the care of a functional med. Dr. now and have lost 20+ lbs each and I have been able to drop my blood pressure and cholesterol meds. This book was the "breaker" that really pushed us to start something toward total wellness.
A fascinating explanation of the functioning of the human body in a way that integrates all the parts, rather than viewing them as separate systems. It's well-written and quite interesting to read, but dense with information - case histories make it relevant, though. Dr. Bland explores many medical traditions and offers insight into genes/genetics, public health, history of medicine (how/why we got to the current state of affairs). The book is so hopeful and so well researched that I think it would be persuasive even to skeptical traditionalists. It includes questionnaires so you can evaluate your own situation and begin to take steps toward better health. I've been giving it to family and friends, and probably will need to read it a second time. A fantastic value.
First of all; Jeffrey Bland is not the father of Functional Medicine, is one of the pillars,and the current more important person behind this system biology approach. This book is an excellent landscape of the subject and a good point to start for those who want to be introduced by this topic.
