The Unwritten Prescription

“The Unwritten Prescription challenges the status quo and empowers readers to move beyond symptom management into true ownership of their health. Dr. Koche masterfully shows that healing is not something we outsource, it’s something we reclaim as we move from our role as passive patients to becoming active participants in charting our health destiny.”
—David Perlmutter, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Brain Defenders

“The Unwritten Prescription is a beautifully disruptive reminder that the body is not a broken machine waiting for orders, but a living network of energy, memory, metabolism, and meaning. Dr. Koche gives readers what modern medicine too often withholds: permission to be both scientifically curious and deeply sovereign in their own healing.”
—Hemal H. Patel, PhD, Professor of Anesthesiology, UC San Diego

“The Unwritten Prescription is a powerful reminder that true healing requires us to look beyond symptoms and listen more deeply to what the body is telling us. Dr. Lisa Koche brings together science, intuition, and years of clinical wisdom to help readers understand the interconnected nature of their health and take a more active role in their own healing. This book is an empowering guide for anyone ready to move beyond simply managing symptoms and begin creating lasting wellness from the inside out.”
—Dr. Anna Cabeca, DO, OBGYN, FACOG, bestselling author of The Hormone Fix

“In The Unwritten Prescription, Dr. Koche offers a powerful vision for what medicine can become when we begin asking better questions. Through her own remarkable journey of healing, she blends scientific rigor with deep compassion, reminding us that wellness is not passive, it is something we cultivate through the choices we make every day.”
—Dr. Will Cole, New York Times bestselling author of Ketotarian

“This book will make you uncomfortable in the best possible way. Lisa Koche has started the honest conversation about health that almost no one else is having. She’s making the case for something much more ambitious.”
—Dr. Kellyann Petrucci, MS, ND, New York Times bestselling author of Dr. Kellyann’s Bone Broth Diet

“Lisa Koche writes what I wish more physicians understood: that the body cannot heal until it feels safe enough to stop protecting itself. The Unwritten Prescription makes that science accessible and actionable.”
—Aimie Apigian, MD, MS, MPH, author of The Biology of Trauma

“Lisa Koche has lived this work—from both sides of the exam room—and that hard-won wisdom is on every page. The Unwritten Prescription pairs the precision of an exceptional physician with the compassion of someone who has fought for her own health. This book will help you listen to your body, ask better questions, and become the most powerful partner in your own healing.”
—JJ Virgin, New York Times bestselling author
