DO THIS DAILY To Reduce Inflammation & PREVENT DISEASE Today! | Andrew Weil

[@jimarthur9936]

I can only speak for myself (74) but I was able to get off of medication and eliminate the arthritic inflammation that kept me up at night through diet. For the last six or seven years I have slept very well and have not experienced the inflammation that tormented me before. In the morning I have lentils, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, yellow squash, colored peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes or grape tomatoes, diced ginger (seems to be the one of the important ingredients dampening my inflammation) and sometimes diced turmeric, nutritional yeast, ground flax, sunflower, and pumpkin seeds, walnuts, almonds, filberts and Brazil nuts. I add avocado when I have them and also sardines. I have to be careful with the sardines because I acquired gout as a side effect of hydrochlorothiazide which I no longer have to take because my blood pressure has also dropped to normal. I alternate with oats, yoghurt, blueberries, almond milk and the same diced ginger and fresh ground seeds and nuts as before. This diet seems to improve my gut biome as well giving me a happy feeling to start the day. If I don't have time to chop vegetables on weekday mornings, I will prepare them on a Sunday and place them in quart freezer bags in the refrigerator and grab one each morning, tossing the veggies lightly in a little olive oil until slightly softer. I stay away from sugar and salt as much as possible. I don't eat eggs or bacon. I don't drink alcohol, fruit juice or any sweetened or carbonated drinks. I drink 24 oz. of water first thing every morning when I get up, before breakfast. This is a common practice in Japan, where their lifespan is longer than ours. My kidneys went from stage 3 to stage 2 and are now normal. I always have breakfast before having any coffee. I saw a study that said that drinking coffee before eating can interfere with the insulin process. The other important element is exercise. The combination of the two is magical. Cardio (walking), core and weight resistance. Another recommendation I can make is to check for sleep apnea which robs you of your sleep unawares. You stop breathing while you are sleeping, CO2 builds up in your bloodstream, your brain wakes you up just enough to start breathing again but not to consciousness, so you never get into a deep sleep. You never wake up enough to realize what is happening. You sleep eight hours and wake up feeling that you haven't slept at all. You will need a sleep study or test to detect it. Sleep apnea causes high blood pressure and a number of other health problems. I have used a CPAP for 20 years and it changed my life. Hope some of this helps somebody.

He said, "they wouldn't listen". I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. When I told him about changes he could make to improve his health, he replied, "if that were true, my doctor would have told me". Sigh

I had an abrupt and brutal onset of rheumatoid arthritis both knees and both hands and wrists. After several years I was free of it. No medication helped me. I was even on Methotrexate and Plaquenil, which almost destroyed my liver. After one year of unsuccessful treatments, I gave up medication entirely. My take was using Kangen water. For 2 months I drank Alkaline water starting from the lowest concentration (for about 2 weeks when I experienced various strange sensations, face skin rashes) to the highest, a quantity of 3-4 liters daily. After 2 mos, I had my first "victory": no swollen, red, feverish joints, I could walk, and I could use the keyboard to surf the net and keep in touch with my friends. Then, I started to drink again a normal daily intake of water using only Kangen water, both for drinking and cooking. The diet was the one used by diabetics - not entirely but to a large extent. No alcohol and sweets that I replaced with fruits. I would also try eating the meat and dairy mostly before 1-2 pm. Some studies were approaching the idea that RA is also a result of the leaking gut. I had some colonics done that helped very much at the time, and I still do it once in a while. I would also take probiotics. Additionally, I took several supplements, including Omega 3, Omega 6, shark oil, and some common vitamins. The vitamins should be adjusted according to individual health conditions. Have blood tests done, bone density, etc. Walking, gymnastics - a combination of aerobic and lightweight lifts, as I could not do more; no cold/hot compression as they had no effect on me. I did light yoga and meditation. Eventually, after several years, I was and still am free of it. My doctor still sends me to have my RA tests, and I am still OK after 12 years since I gave up medication.

[@connieholmes4853]

I am insulin resistant and I also did keto and lost weight in my stomach area first! It is usually the last place I would lose because I was eating a lot of carbs. Now I am addicted to carbs they give me a euphoric feeling but I never would get full from foods like rice. I did get full from vegetables, protein and healthy fats therefore allowing fasting to become natural. I am the least concerned about the “social” aspect and more focused on freaking living for the long haul. That’s part of the problem is that we as people eat too much and the wrong foods. My stomach becomes bloated when I eat carbs. Some healthy carb in moderation is reasonable but you can get fiber from other sources besides carbs.

So far, I've lost 120lbs eating a Ketogenic diet. I don't eat a ton of meat. I eat a huge salads every night using only home made dressings with a whole avocado, about a cup of fresh broccoli, organic greens and a few ounces of meat protein, usually about 3 ounces, but never more than 6 oz. All of my blood markers are excellent. My A1C is 5.0 down from 6.5. My triglycerides dropped from over 500 to 85, my electrolytes are all high/normal. It works for me. I don't tell anybody else to do it. If they ask me how I lost 120lbs, I tell them what I did, but to do the research yourself.

[@01happykat]

@@Jana-pm3nj I think it's because so many people on the keto diet consume junk meat like bacon and sausage versus chicken, pork, or grassfed beef. Also, to my knowledge, keto doesn't allow fruit or allows very little fruit, which can be detrimental to your health, particularly age-related macular degeneration. Fruit also reduces risk of T2DM. The mass produced bacon and sausage is garbage, so what are the effects of consuming large quantities of that food in lieu of fiber, nutrient, and anti-oxidant rich fruit? For an example, I overheard a conversation with colleagues where one was talking about "diet where you can eat bacon every day!" She was talking about keto, and the others were very excited to hear this news. Of course, they were all overweight, some obese, and none had a good diet. Keto appeals very highly to that population for that reason. And they're the ones who need the benefits of fruit more than anyone.

I have never been fat and have exercised almost daily since I was old enough to move. I have eaten six meals a day and one meal a day.

I went to a dental hygienist appointment recently. As she worked on my mouth, she asked, "Are you a vegetarian?". I gave her a thumbs up. A short while later, she asked, "Are you vegan?" I answered that I'd explain later. So when the dental work was completed, she wanted to know what I ate because of the lack of inflammation in my gums. I had previously thought of inflammation as being at a cellular level but she was telling me that the lack of gum inflammation was visually obvious to her. So I told her about reading Dr. Greger's book, 'How Not to Die' in 2015 and changing to a whole-food plant-based (WFPB) diet. I love eating fibre and nutrient-rich foods and don't miss the animal and processed foods I've ditched. I like using water-based (no oil) cooking methods (steaming, broiling, baking). Eight years later, I'm 67 years old and slim, fit and strong. My hip osteoarthritis pain has (almost) gone. My bloating has gone (I'm gluten-free also). I am never constipated. There are no downsides. It's true - inflammation is a key indicator of your state of health. Ask your hygienist about the state of your gums and if they're inflamed, learn about healthy eating from Nutritionfacts and Forks Over Knives.

[@grannygoes7882]

See this just goes to show we're all different and you have to find what works for you. My daughter ruined her health with veganism. She was one for over 30 years. I improved my health and got the same results you did (I'm 65) with the carnivore diet. My inflammation never showed in my gums. I could be totally inflamed, which usually shows in my colon by having crohn's flareups, and get my teeth cleaned and be told they looked fantastic. I think that is due to my regular use of a water pik. The most important thing for your health is what you believe. When you think you are doing something good for yourself, whether that is eating all veggies or all meat and aren't stressed AND move more than you sit, your body will respond in a positive way.

[@mildreddiaz6435]

Good afternoon happened to come upon your video and I totally enjoyed it and I agree. Many years back when I was in my early 20 I made two discoveries and mind you I’m not a doctor or any way near in any medical field. But I have always had and interest with Chinese medicine and the more Ayurvedic methods. At the age of 17 still in high school I started to change my way of life style and a more clean eating. Because I believe we are what we eat and health and well being comes from what you feed your body and mind. So that being said in my early twenties I started to develop a severe case of acne and not only did it look painful it was very painful even to sleep.very sensitive. I started going to the dermatologist and they would prescribe the usual antibiotics with many restrictions and retin A bit for whatever reason I felt that it had more to that so I started studying my body and how it reacted to certain things that I ate. And I discovered that dairy products and white carbs and sweets and processed foods had a negative affect on me. I changed my eating habits stopped in taking those foods and my skin cleared. I bought it to the doctors attention and I was told that it had nothing to do with that that it was only a myth that I could stick my head in oil and eat whatever foods and it would not affect me. But I did not find that to be true and stuck to my discovery and to this day I’m 52 I have not gotten the breakouts or skin infections that I had. Another discovery I made was the green tea, I started drinking green tea when I was introduced to it by some Korean friends. And I felt it to be magical didn’t get colds or flus like I did before. Few years after my discovery my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and was just being treated by hormones and had no Improvement his psa was always high and his cancer was not getting better. In my house it was a custom drinking espresso at least twice or three times a day. Well I figured out of my own to have my father change his eating habits to stop eating beef and less coffee and to incorporate green tea, and this was not any special green tea just a simple green tea bag from the market. My dad followed my guide and when we returned to the doctor a very well known cancer hospital here in New York City to have a blood work to check his PSA levels the doctors where amazed that my fathers PSA levels had dropped drastically and they questioned what my father was doing or taking different. So I told them and they all looked at each other and said oh green tea, they excused themselves stepped out of the room to talk amongst themselves and after a while came back and informed us what was going on, that my fathers PSA levels had gone down to a normal level which was very good BUT they said he will have to stop because we are going to start treatment and green tea will interfere with it. My father died few months after starting the cancer treatment. I wish I hadn’t listened and would had in courage’s my dad to continue Drinking green tea. My dad was only 62. Since then doctors have discovered that certain foods do affect the body and that green tea is actually very helpful for cancer patients and to help prevent cancer. Sadly enough I feel, and not speaking for all but some doctors don’t really want to get the root of the problem but rather just cover the situation. Things are commercialized unfortunately and I feel as someone who healed herself and discovered two things that were not know by doctors until recent that we have to listen to our bodies and learn our bodies because many times we might just have the answer to our health conditions. Sorry for the long chat. Thank you, God bless!

@@Mike-.747 I think you need to drink like 8 cups a day, just replace water intake with it. Also, in some East Asian countries, the parents make their children a huge thermos of green tea to take to school with them in the morning and they drink it throughout the day. Also a good idea if you’re on the go. Unfortunately if I drink too much it takes away my appetite and I also notice it affects my hormones.

Growing up, we ate three meals a day and snacked in between. I grew into an eating disorder and have carried several more pounds than necessary - not hugely overweight but still overweight. And always dieting, to no avail. Dieting felt depriving , so I always went back to overeating. In recent months I began keto with intermittent fasting and immediately lost almost twenty pounds. I changed up my choices in food: only fish and dairy for animal fat, lots of veggies, nuts, nut butters, fermented foods and basically just one regular meal per day. If I find myself craving carbs I drink water to make sure I’m not hydrated, and if what I think of as “mouth” hunger persistsI have a few small crackers with peanut butter on them with coffee or tea and my cravings go away. This is rare, however. Keto with fasting (for me, “postponing” meals) takes away hunger almost completely. But you must not starve or deprive yourself. Meditation daily started it all, I must admit. When I stopped having the anxiety I’d had since childhood, everything, including a sense of financial security and abundance came in. So in several ways, I am always “full” now.

I was thirty-three when I found Dr. Wilder. I began to read books about Mediterranean cuisine. I also was working out five days a week with Denise Austin and I felt and looked great! Stress became a major factor in my life around 35-40 years old. I began to eat a lot of foods packed with sugar, which is my weakness! As a result my health took a downward turn. In 2015 I was finally diagnosed with Lupus & RA. By this time stress levels are dangerously high. I really wanted to respond about stress and how much havoc it wreaks on our overall health! My body was constantly in a fight mode until my heart, mental and emotional health began to decline. I remembered Dr. Wilder teaching on Mediterranean food. I am now eating more fiber, mostly vegetables and wild caught Salmon. Along with red snapper and cod fish. I also have two excellent doctors. My primary doctor suggests that I eat more fiber, fruits and lean meats without frying. If I must with olive oil. I feel awesome! My pain level is zero! I am beginning to exercise more regularly. Though my stress is still too high, I am working on it. I swear by Dr. Wilder. Love this information video!

I learned about Dr Weil when I worked at Marshall Fields( Macy’s) at his products were available at the Origins counter. I was already on the road to healthy eating. When my Mom got sick with cancer and had chemo his products where the only ones she was not reacting to. RIP. After my Moms death I decided to change my diet and hopefully influence my children. It took me 7 years to become vegan. I’ll eat goat or sheep cheese and yogurt. I also cut gluten, sugar( well I have sometimes a good piece of home baked apple pie). When I went to Greece after my Dad died ( kidney failure, heart failure, overweight, diabetes) I was eating everything but there is no use of butter unless you ask. Olive oil. I was fine no inflammation. I-have lupus.A lot of times I would spend 2-3 months in bed , when my daughter got sick with Covid in December of 2019 and then I got sick in January it took me till March to recover!!! I decided I am not going to live like that! Cleaned my kitchen . No soda , no chips, no white rice, flour, noodles you name it. Yoga, breathing ( Kundalini) long walks with dogs, grounding. Results amazing! I had 2 pituitary tumors 5mm and 4 mm and they were causing so many issues. Blurry vision, dizziness, gait problems, I also believe high heart rate because of anxiety. Dizziness was vertigo everyday with nausea. And 2 kids that had to drive to school and pick up in sub zero temps. Radiation meds didn’t help, my hair were falling out, skin was so dry, I developed neuropathy and lost goes on. And being vegan changed my life and “gluten” free( there is a good gluten . One tumor shrieked to 1 mm. My dizziness significantly diminished and my balance is restored. I got of Plaquanil before Covid started because it was lowering my immune system and causing cancer cell growth. My doctor was mad!!! It saved my life. I had time to strengthen my body a little before I got hit with Covid, but I am alive. Essential oil, chicken soup with turmeric saved my daughter she had fever of 105F and no one new what’s wrong with her. She was coughing so bad I thought she is going to suffocate. She also changed her diet after Covid. Seeing my both parents suffering so much my biggest fear was not to die their death. I always thought my parents will get old and die in their dream…. Reality is we are what we eat. I’m so glad I came across Dr. Weil. I advocate healthy eating in my family and friends but all I hear are laughs. I believe that you can make change within 3 weeks of drastic diet. I’m slim I was exercising and eating peanut butter and margarine. Not to mention during childhood lard! I had atherosclerosis in a main vein 80-90%. I went water and greens, no oils, nuts, avocados, and balsamic oil. I only could do it for 3 weeks and I went to 50-60%. Yes!!!! Doctor said it was a glitch. Sure! I know what I did and I believe it! I am working on my stress and childhood trauma because that contributes to cancer in my body. Thank you for all great tips. Thank you 🙏🏽. 💕Peace Kindness Compassion

Dr. Weil, I bought Spontaneous Healing in 1996 and I have to thank you for how much it impacted my life. You single-handedly changed the way I thought about food, responsible consideration of both eastern and western medicine and my body's innate ability to heal. I was a 25 year-old artist at the time without health insurance. Staying healthy was of the utmost importance because I simply couldn't afford to go to the doctor. At 52, I look and feel like a 30 year old. I have maintained good health and been able to fight fleeting illness with what some have described as miraculous speed. I am a touring performer and never even caught Covid. It's not a miracle. It's a blessing that you shared with me and so many others who have benefitted from your wisdom and generosity. I still hear your voice saying that the human body is built for walking. That walking is as good, if not the best thing one can do for exercise. You are the OG! I am forever grateful. And you look exactly the same as you did 20 years ago btw....that alone says something! Thank you. Bless you. Sincerely, Cassidy

I went on a diet for the first time as a teenager counting calories. It was hard but worked - for a while. But as time went on I found I had to keep repeating the diet. They all ended the same way. You have to think about food all day, planning meals counting every last thing. But all diets ended the same way - feeling tired and hungry. With each year I'd have to accept a new higher normal weight. I obeyed the advice low fat, more fibre, eat fruit and veg. By the time I was 62 I ended up prediabetic; with a heart condition, fatty liver, and 18st 5lbs, on Statins, PPI, CCI, aspirin. THEN I discovered Jason Fung and his guide to fasting, and also adopted HFLC diet. After 10 months my weight was down to 14st 12lbs. My A1C down, HDL up, Triglycerides down. Stopped the statins, PPI and CCI pills, no more heart pain, breathing better, no more waking in the middle of the night with wind, no more fatty liver. A calorie is not a calorie. It matters what kinds of food you eat far more than the energy value. I enjoy fat foods. WHo would have thought that the old book my Mum had in 1960 "Eat fat, Grow Slim" was better advice that any of the pseudo-scientific epidemiology upon which the "guidlines" are based. If you want to read more on this; Robert Lustig (sugar), Gary Taubes (keto), Nina Teicholz(unpacking the guidlines), Richard Johnson (on the role of fructose).

The first thing doctors would tell me is that I look great, and that I don't look like anythings wrong w/me. Well gee thanks, but I feel lousy... Blood work came back "normal" according to them.

This guy had stage 4 or close, I can’t remember, and he got cured. It’s on here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6uzo6uhqpara7s I hope you see my reply.

You have to be clear about the differences and similarities between a keto diet, a ketogenic diet, a carnivore diet, a paleo diet, a low carb diet, and the effects of intermittent fasting. Nobody has to be in ketosis all the time unless they have an illness or metabolic situation requiring it. You can eat nothing but meat, or you can be vegan or anything in between. Some eat no vegetables or fruits; some eat nothing but vegetables and fruit. Everyone has to experiment and figure out their own needs. That's a process that never ends since dietary needs change.

[@barbarafairbanks4578]

Not only do 'dietary needs change', but they can be completely individualized depending on individual genetics - which is why some thrive on vegan, others on strictly carnivore, some on keto, some on Mediterranean diets. This is also, IMO is why we have the current culture diet wars, and why so many are if the mistaken belief that the one way of eating they thrive on means, to them, that their way is best, for all. But no, that is NOT so - genetics plays a huge part on one's optimal diet. The ONE constant that seems to hold true for all is the benefit if shortening our daily 'feeding window' - eating all meals as early as possible during the day, and lengthy overnight fasts - resulting in very sound health benefits found in Dr. Satchin Panda's recent studies on time-restricted eating and fasting.

[@Nonduality]

@@barbarafairbanks4578 I agree that if I changed from carnivore to vegan, which could happen, the one thing that would stay the same is intermittent fasting.

They're all bad tho lol. No long living person has eaten a keto diet and every long living person eats legumes and grains.

45 years old, have been on Paxil (for post partum depression) for 20+ years. I am definitely in the group of targetive dysphoria patients described. I have tried more times than I can recall to stop taking the meds and I simply cannot handle the depression/anxiety/panic/irritability that I experience. No matter how slowly I decrease the dose It Cannot Be Done!

[@jeb419]

It’s difficult as you are possibly, or likely experiencing withdrawals when trying to get off of Paxil, which may exacerbate feelings of depression or anxiety worse than when you had them before taking the drug. But, it is important not to get off the drug if it causes you to have very bad side effects when coming off of it. I came off of a long lasting opiate maintenance drug and I came off slowly over years. During this process I got into fitness and tried to be healthier to make the slow process of getting off easier. Don’t rush it and it’s better to stay on than feel terrible and have negative consequences. First off try and do some things to feel healthier while you’re still on it then consider doing a very very slow titration down. Best of luck

[@aprilkitten]

✨If you state the intention that "it Cannot be done", then "it Cannot be done". = Doomed. The universal field will fulfill your command so be careful what you say or wish for. Most of those drugs are simply placebos (like Prozac) anyway. Most are only working because the patient believes what the doctor claims the drug can do. lol The drug companies know about the placebo effect because they've tested it and see that in many studies the placebos work better than the drug. Of course they're not going to tell you that. They can't make money if you find out that YOU ARE THE PLACEBO & have the power to heal yourself through your belief system/MIND SET. What we believe turns out to become true. Conceive it Believe it Achieve it ✨GET IT?✨ You have great power so be careful what you say and what you think as You're creating your reality with every thought. Read the book, You Are The Placebo or You are Supernatural, by dr. Joe Dispenza.... or conceive it believe it achieve it. Are you not aware of your superhuman abilities and how powerful your mind is? Drugs are mostly poison. There's a few that are helpful for acute situations but nothing should be taken long term because the body can only heal itself if it's not in the process of being Poisoned With Pharmaceuticals and as long as you full have faith in your body to heal itself. And of course, by all means, add in natural organic Alternatives support... meditate, dance, sing, ground in the sun and eat only organic whole foods from the Earth. Transcend the levels of your consciousness and read Ttranscending the Levels of Consciousness, by dr. David Hawkins, and read his books on HEALING as well. Illness and wellness is all a result of your Consciousness. Your Consciousness is your true self; your SOUL, the part of you that is the spark of God. Your Auric field can heal any ailment while you are sleeping if you have adopted a powerful mindset and a positive energy field for your Aura to thrive Within. Listen to Dr. David R Hawkins books on Audible including dr Joe Dispenza and hundreds of other similar authors speaking of the same thing like Joseph Murphy and Neville Goddard... and A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj... "I Am That" and "You are not the Body" ............ Celebrate your true self and have faith in it's ability to heal. Every time you take a poison drug you are telling your body you do not trust it to heal on its own and you poison it with those thoughts and toxic chemicals. That path leads to disease and suppresses the power of the spirit. Those actions limit your superhuman abilities and will take you down into suffering. Drugs are like putting duct tape over your check engine light. Occasionally they may would be helpful in emergency situations, but it will take wisdom & Insight for you to get in touch with your TRUE self and what it can do and truly needs in order to thrive. New sentence; > IT CAN BE DONE!! > IT CAN BE DONE!! > IT CAN BE DONE!!

Your statement is a pure description of addiction. And with every addiction you have to go through a painful and hard withdrawal. Not easy but can be done. The first step is to admit your addiction. And get help.

[@aprilkitten]

Managing emotions with meditation and accessing a higher state of consciousness will pull most out of a depression immediately. It works for me and for my students, but it does take practice, commitment and faith. Just like Jesus said, we must have faith. Healing arises from the perception and the belief that we CAN achieve our desires. If you can conceive it and believe it, then you can achieve it. That is called faith and that is what Jesus taught for good reason, as Jesus is the great healer and that is how prayer works as well. We are the placebo. Have faith in this truth. It is this truth that will set you free. Jesus said that too! All humans have this innate ability within. It is our God given Birthright. Our subconscious will trap us into a field of despair if we choose to conceive it and believe it. Choose powerfully. All we need to do is access the energy of our higher consciousness where all healing arises from. This high-level healing is done by the astral body during sleep. If we set our intention to love with faith, we will awaken feeling brand new and eventually bursting with joy; when we realize the power of this great gift that has been kept secret. Put your faith in the Grace of God which has been coded within us all. Blessing you with love & joy.

[@aprilkitten]

@@LightshamanaDhyana I offered Support over a month ago, but this person is not yet open to healing. We cannot coach the uncoachable. Some people choose a long period of suffering and that is their Free Will right. Wellness is right here for them as soon as they're ready to be open to it. As a joy life coach and healer, I have written copious notes, but so far, no response. This person is not yet ready to heal. Healing takes Faith and Courage. Each person will need to first powerfully choose to emerge from their state of Fear before any real healing can begin. Fear will keep a person trapped and stuck reaching into a bottle. The ego is tricky like that. I have much empathy as I was once a fear-based person in the past as well.

I've been quite successful having a ketogenic lifestyle. However, it doesn't consist primarily of meat. I rarely eat beef, but do love bacon. I enjoy bacon once or twice a week but for the most part, my protein consists mainly of seafood, eggs and avocados. I include it with a big salad mixed with evoo, cayenne pepper, sea salt, pepper, and apple cider vinegar. I also do OMAD, but will fast up to 48 if I don't feel hungry. And I don't do sugar and carbs. I'm seeing comments saying Keto is Atkins and it's not.

will a 4 second inhale followed by a 4-second holding of the breath followed Again by an 8-second exhale and finally followed by holding the breath again with all the air out - for 4 seconds - also accomplish the same thing as your 4-7-8 technique ?

[@nancykisich3263]

A Weil is one of my all time favorite practitioners in the field of health. I disagree that keto results are placebo though. I would have liked to hear Rangan C ask more specifically about people who are seriously suffering from autoimmune disorders who have tried many things & finally getting dramatic results from keto.

[@achobrother7128]

at 10:30min- "in many cases health benefits that people experience when they change the way they eat are not directly due to the dietary change but rather to the commitment of mental energy to do something to improve their health, there is no way to do that experiment but i think, its not easy for people to change how they eat and so, to do so represents a great commitment in mental energy and that often initiates a healing response blah blah blah blah," that excerpt right there tell you EVERYTHING you need to know-this guy is a full of it....thank you & good night!

Big fan of Dr. Weil.. at 79 he's incredible sharp and articulate! Regarding the 46m20s mark on placebos and how for all drug trials there are some people that get the same response without any active component taken... I wonder if these people share anything in common, and whether or not they would have gotten better even without the mental suggestion.

[@Nonduality]

79 ain't that old anymore.

[@maricamaas2326]

It also means that the supposed active component could not actually be what is working.

[@tracyfederman7502]

Appreciate your reflections about patient care and the feelings of inadequate treatment within the medical profession. Even my husband, who is a psychologist, has little room for new ideas, nutritional options that might have benefits in treating mental health. That no, no, no this is the way to do it attitude is unacceptable. I find it all too familiar with many MDs. Tired of going to a doctor whose only answer is to prescribe a pill and doesn’t even ask me about my diet or stress level. That’s why I listen to your program. You question these attitudes and provide current ideas and research with your guests that bring some balance to the horizon. I worked in the pharmaceutical industry for 17 years and saw first hand how people rely on their drugs instead of changing their lifestyles. Some drugs are effective and helpful. But when you see someone entering a cancer study with a list of 30 drugs that they are currently taking you gotta wonder. And I saw that repeatedly. Thanks for being there. You enhance and improve the landscape of the medical community. ❤️
