A practice-focused introduction to functional medicine

Priscilla Davis’s guide frames functional medicine as a systems-based approach that considers connections among symptoms, lifestyle, environment, and diet. Its practical scope spans patient-centered history-taking, the Functional Medicine Matrix, diagnostics, and interventions such as dietary changes, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments. Case studies involving autoimmune conditions, metabolic syndrome, and mental health provide examples of how the book applies these concepts. The guide also addresses implementation in clinical settings, with coverage of workflows, documentation, and challenges involving time, resources, and patient compliance. Together, these topics make the book both an introduction to the approach and a practice-oriented reference for incorporating its methods.
