Rebuild: Five Proven Steps to Move from Diagnosis to Recovery and Be Healthier Than Before

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.

Dr. Z gives you expert advice to look beyond confusing medical opinions and diagnostic errors in order to take full control of your own health. Rebuild is a must-read for those who know there is more they can do—if they can find the right tools—to get from diagnosis back to optimal health.
