Great introduction

This is a small introduction to Weil's integrative medical philosophy. The neophyte of medical studies may be supriesed to know most of the medical scientific breakthroughs have done us well in the acute setting but as for chronic illnesses we are but managing disease. The integrative approach starts with prevention and if this is not possible looks at all posibilities of helping the body regain its homeostasis.

The best info integrated medicine

I have listened to this over and over. It inspires me to eat healthy and to live a healthy lifestyle. Dr Weil is interesting and easy to listen.

Excellent summary on healthy living

This is a great starting book for anyone interested in living a healthy life. Not so much new material for those who already read a few books on modern nutritional approaches to staying or becoming healthy, but if you haven't read anything I this topic or not much than this is an excellent starter that will provide a super solid foundation and enough additional material to get you thinking. After this then read How Not To Die.

Common sense

Any additional comments?

Dr. Weil is a joy to listen to. I enjoy his conservational tone. He doesn't confuse his listeners with difficult to understand science, rather explains it in layman's term. I could listen to Dr. Weil all day long.

Amazing resource for optimum health

I have been health-conscious for most of my life, making sure to eat good Whole Foods and exercise. My recent diagnosis with breast and uterine cancer was a shock.
Dr. Andrew Weil’s book provides a wealth of information that you don’t find in main stream health care. He does a great job at writing as if he were sitting across the table from you. My biggest take away is that there is not just one approach to any health event. It is a combination of self love, self advocacy, some basic health knowledge of different medicine approaches and the importance of using food for healing.

solid information

Dr. Weil has an easy to listen to voice. He breaks down fairly complex information into digestible sections. While some of this information may be old to some it is nice to hear it from his perspective and insight.

Easy to Follow

Clear and relevant information that was easy to follow. Dr. Weil takes the fear out of changing how we live for better health.

If you haven't read this book.. why haven't you??

This is a wonderful book on health and wellness. I can't wait to read more of Dr.Weil's books. He is extremely knowledgeable and he gives it to you straight. I enjoyed every minute of this audiobook and was truly disappointed when it was over. For your well being do yourself a favor and read this book.

Informative and Simple

Very informative and easy to understand. I look forward to putting what I learned into practice for myself and my family.

Fantastic guidance

We all face choices in our lives to listen and consider does this ring true to me or not. Dr. Weil nailed it for me, I can hardly wait to listen to more of his guidance. I will listen to this book again to take notes next time. I highly recommend this one.
