As the founder of the practice that integrates traditional and functional medicine, Dr. Aziz focuses on addressing  the root cause of disease. He is the author of "The Perfect 10 Diet," a book that challenged outdated dietary guidelines in 2010. It is a book that was ahead of its time since it went against established medical guidelines for its position against fake fats promoted by the Amercian Heart Association, and the Harvard Food Pyramid. He advocated a balanced, natural diet with satuarted fats in 2010 long before the new USDA Food Pyramid was introduced in 2026.

In 2025, Dr. Aziz published his second book, "The Ageless Revolution." It is the first book on the market that addresses aging as a disease. It is a new concept in medicine since it targets cellular malfunction. Alarmed by the high mortality rates in the US during the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Aziz emphasizes the need for proactive health measures to improve healthspan, and prolong lifespan. His approach integrates traditional and functional medicine aiming to treat aging rather than treating chronic age-related diseases using supplements, hormone replacement, and peptides. 

The second book was also an immediate bestseller, hitting the number 1 spot in anti-aging, longevity, menopause, and holistic medicine categories on Amazon for several weeks. The book was also picked up  to be translated into several foreign languages including Portuguese ( Brazil), Polish, and Chinese.
