Functional Medicine

The New Standard

By: Kevin Hoffarth

Narrated by: Kevin Hoffarth

Dr. Kevin Hoffarth graduated from medical school in 2000 and completed his family medicine residency at Creighton University in 2003. In his first 10 years as a family physician, he worked in every area of medicine possible; from births to deaths and everything in between. During those years in the trenches, he realized that how he was taught to approach the ailments of his patients could be vastly improved upon. It was then that he decided to embark on a medical journey to seek out and learn the new philosophies and ways of more effectively treating 21st century medical issues.

In his book, Dr. Hoffarth guides us through the knowledge he has gathered across this journey, his seven years of experience implementing what he learned along the way, and the appreciation he has gained towards the ties that bind us all. He will walk you through his application of treating the five "S.T.A.M.P" triggers, along with his basic principles on tackling illness, building discipline, and learning how to be your best self both physically and mentally. In a world filled with conflicting advice, a constant flow of new information, and the common practice of treating symptoms over illness, Dr. Hoffarth brings us the most basic starting points to healing - cutting over the noise and confusion plaguing the patients of the medical world.

Nice into to functional medicine

This book is exactly what it advertises. It's a basic introduction to functional medicine and how to get back on track. I hope to learn more advanced functional medicine practices but you don't get it in this book which is fine. But if you're new to the practice you should definitely start with this book, it was a very pleasant read.

If you have a bit more then basic nutrition knowledge- this book won’t teach you much

First- why is no one checking the audio before it’s released? There are noises and repeating sentences. Very annoying.

Second- the knowledge in this book is very basic so i will recommend this only to people who have zero knowledge in nutrition.

Excellent book

Excellent book. Succinct with life changing advice! Highly recommend this book!!! It has very valuable advice.

So helpful!

Such great info… I’ll need to listen again! I wish this book was required for all high school students to read to empower them for healthy living.

Easy to Understand

A user friendly book. I will definitely use much of the content. A good book for people who are just learning about the way your body works and how to keep it functioning properly.
