ONE ROOT, MANY RISKS

Millions each year receive life-altering diagnoses-cancer, heart disease, dementia, diabetes, often treated as unrelated and unavoidable. Yet these conditions share a single, modifiable driver: metabolic dysfunction. In One Root, Many Risks, Dr. Gabriel Gavrilescu, board-certified internist and geriatrician, explains how targeting that root can transform health and longevity.

With more than two decades of primary-care and geriatrics practice at Cleveland Clinic Florida, where he holds the John and Margaret Krupa Distinguished Chair in Preventive Medicine and leads the Division of Internal Medicine and Geriatrics, Dr. Gavrilescu introduces the M3 Complex of Diseases (Metabolic · Malignancy · Memory). This practical framework shows how insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and excess weight set the stage for today's most feared illnesses, and how you can break the cycle.

Inside, you will discover:

• Clear guidance on eating patterns that nurture metabolic health
• Exercise plans that deliver outsized benefits in realistic time frames
• A full chapter on GLP-1 receptor agonists- with benefits beyond weight loss, and diabetes control, with description of typical side effects, and smart mitigation strategies

A final DIY chapter helps you set a realistic weight goal and craft a tailored diet-and-exercise plan: free, flexible, and evidence-based.

One Root, Many Risks turns complex science into actionable steps. Whether you aim to reverse existing problems or prevent them altogether, the tools are here. Start today and build a healthier, longer life from the inside out.
