Weil predicted in '97 trans-fats would eventually be deemed so dangerous that the FDA would ban them for human consumption.
That's happened within the past 2 years. Weil gives solid advice for someone beginning a healthier lifestyle. I like the way he has you adapt just a few new habits each week - always any easier transition than making major changes all at once. And the advice is given in the context of easing into them at your pace and achieveing the balance that feels right to you.
The only area that is a little lacking is that some of the recommendations are not supported with much background on why Weil recommends. Because of the work Weil has done in this field I am certain it is well informed advice, but the supporting information is not always provided. Some readers will have an understanding why Weil recommends things like milk thistle, evening primrose oil, purified water as opposed to tap - but more information would help clarify the advice for others.
If a normal person followed all of this plan, their health might improve - at least temporarily - unless they experience injury. However, I believe that the good doctor goes overboard in his recommendations. In fact, many of his recommendations have proven to be nothing but a waste of money and effort.
Others haven't even been properly tested. I believe more practical books exist that are not formatted as specific make or break health plans - plans in which the author is not selling the products recommended in his books.
For example, I like John Robins book, "Healthy at It's clear how these people achieve health and longevity, but the readers are left to contemplate how much of these healthy practices they can fit into their own lives. Shortcuts have never worked for me in anything.
I just find them to entail higher risks. I want to simply live as long as possible, and as healthy as possible - to the end of my life. I believe I can best achieve this by trying to live a lifestyle similar to people who actually do achieve this goal.
This was a repeat purchase for me as I have had Dr. Weil's books since they first came out, but a couple were lost during a move. Even if you don't follow his advice on everything, this book gives you a lot of good pointers for healthy living. I have never been able to attain the optimum, but I learned a lot about my body and nutrition, and good tips on trying to live stress-free and happy.
It is a good book to have handy to read about something that might be happening in your life, and you don't necessarily have to read it from cover to cover.
He lays out the eight weeks in order, but I use the book more as a reference. Over the years, I have read it all more than once. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in knowing more about themselves and how to reach for a healthier way of living.
I've done a lot of study on becoming healthy and this is probably one of the best books I've seen on this subject. Weil has set up a really great, easy to implement way to get started in the path toward great health.
I first "read" this book via an audio book and had to buy the hardcover book so I would have something to refer to for each of the week's changes and so I could reread all the great ideas. I also love that he doesn't require you to buy his products, he has products available but you don't have to use them. Its more for your ease if you choose and because so many people have asked him for them.
This program really does help your body to heal itself and maintain good health. Don't expect an overnight success but you will feel so much better it can feel like it might be miraculous. Instead you should just ask your HMO why they don't suggest these things if they are really focused on prevention instead of intervention. I found this book 10 years ago when I was 43 and struggling with a variety of semi-serious health issues.
I credit this book as one of the 3 key components for my return to health. Additionally, it introduced me to Dr. Weil's website where I go before jumping into any new health trend or diet. Best resource I've found for good, data-based research on what may really be good or bad for my health.
This is a very sound and easy progrram to follow and I am stil doing many of the suggested things from each of the 8 weeks. I read the book in Oct. Weil has been around in the field of health for a long time and I find his help optimal. The breathing exercises are truly great and I find them helpful whether in bed, on the job or out in the world.
Good breathing is most helpful to any program one chooses as it relaxes the body as well as energising it. It does for me anyway. I was a shallow breather most of my life and this program keeps me on track daily!!! Can't ask for more than that.
Eating certain veggies, grains, fish and sticking with the basics make for wonderful habits to keep ones body doing the most for itself. We are amazing machines when treated with respect and having gratitude!!! This is very prominent in this program.
Go for it!!! See all reviews. Top reviews from other countries. The advice on diet seems hydrated and contradicts modern research, general advice good but just common sense, look for something more current. One person found this helpful. I can imaginer that it would help people to get to good health.
Report abuse. Great book for basis of plan for health as expected from author! Great read and great programme. A must read for everyone. Insightful and easy to follow program.
