Dear Patients,
After years of writing and a lifetime of practicing medicine, I'm honored to announce that my book, Resurrection Medicine: Rebuilding Health — Defying Dogma, Returning to Human Biology, is now available in both English and Spanish.
This book is deeply personal to me. Part I traces my family's four generations in medicine — my grandfather in pulmonology, my father in oncology, my uncle's autoimmune research — and my own path, including my exile from Mexico after threats of violence and kidnapping against my family, and the reinvention that eventually led me to CiaoBella. Part II is the clinical framework I wish every patient had access to: practical, science-based guidance on metabolism, movement, hormones, sleep, and GLP-1 medications, along with a detailed mechanistic appendix written for physicians and clinically-minded readers.
My hope is that this book helps you — whether you're a longtime patient or someone I've had the privilege of treating just once — understand your own biology more clearly and make lasting changes that go far beyond any single treatment we've done together.
The book is available now in English and Spanish, in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle/ebook, on Amazon: https://ezpmt.me/0Igup
Would you like a signed or personally dedicated copy? You can order one directly through our practice website:

If the book resonates with you, I'd be so grateful for an honest review on Amazon — it genuinely helps more readers find it.
Thank you for trusting me with your care over the years. This book is, in many ways, an extension of that trust.
Warmly,
Dr. Edgardo Zavala-Alarcón, MD
