When I turned 50 I decided to change my life mostly through spirituality and better diet and it’s working. I’m 56 now and by cutting out sugars and processed foods and eating whole grains and meditating and giving gratitude to the universe, all of my previous ailments went away and I feel better now than any other time in my adult life.
I’m interested in knowing what your diet was like before you omitted sugar and processed foods?I need to make changes to each area of the life and health. I’m 52. Lord help
@@Tahnema1 I'm about to be 52 myself, broke my neck in 2015 had surgery and broke it again. I recently learned about "Grounding". I was an electrician half my life so I'm familliar with the concept. When was the last time you walked Barefoot Outside?? ...... It reduces inflamation Better than Anything I've ever tried... Remember how good it feels to walk on a beach or out in the woods far from the city?? Go outside and grab a chair & put your feet on the Earth!! 30 minuets a day will work wonders.
My grandmother passed on this year at 99 just shy away from 100 years. She was in Malawi. At 99 she was doing everything by herself, living in her own house, attending to her own needs like bathing, feeding etc. Her eyesight was good, memory sharp and hearing not too bad. She never used hearing aids but one had to speak louder around her especially in the last five years but could hold a conversation. Since I have known her, she only had one proper meal ( lunch) and in the evening she would have a cup of tea. She worked ( farming and was an entrepreneur all her life building small houses for rent until her dying day, guess this helped her as well).
I have healed many things with my mind and spirituality. I have super high inflammation in my body and now have zero. I did reduce sugar and started to eat better. I used no medications . I have had severe pain and worked with it with the mind with no meds. I am glad to hear others believe this.
What did you do, ? I'm in deep pain with my stomach since March. Never experienced this in my life. I have been free from sugar, flour and caffeine since May 2007. Lost 225lbs and been keeping it off all this time.
So happy to hear about the positive improvements in your health. Personally, I’ve been practicing Transcendental Meditation and have noticed many positive changes in my own life. Off all antidepressants, anxiety medications and “sleep aids”. Best of luck to you on your journey.
As humans we have certain species specific needs: - Community - Daily sufficient movement (lots of walking and some cardiovascular and strength training) - Being outdoors (sunshine and connecting to the earth through our skin) - Circadian rhythm (rising with sun; going to bed after sunset) - Proper nutrition (locally grown organic foods and high quality animal foods such as red meat, organs, unpasteurised milk and cheese) - A meaningful existence (something to live for other than yourself; giving to others; gratitude) - Proper sleep Its a simple but not so easy recipe in today's world.
@@Zar2244 tell that to the people in land where nothing can grow in the soil and the only way to survive is through cows. the cows eat the grass and provide milk and meat... you want to drink plant based milk, just drink them, there's no need to bash animal's milk...
Coconut milk has been used in culinary form a long time in many asian countries, even in Caribbean islands. But other milks like almond and oats arè from recent times just a fashion fads i think
The only doctor that should call himself a doctor!!! He’s real, honest, open, and knowledgeable like no other. Luv him enormously and so grateful for all he brings to us. Thank you Dr. Andrew Weil for EVERYTHING you inform us of!!! 🙏💜😇
Well back and neck pain from multiple rear end collisions and falls while in LA. One sciatica for 13 years. Saw many chiropractors then my boyfriend took me to holistic doctors. One chiro practiced applied kinesiology and was out of pain in 3 sessions!!! A miracle.
@@petecarroll3949 yes you’re right. However mind-body medicine is helpful for pain that linger long past the time it should’ve taken for it to heal. Sometimes nerves get caught in this chronic looping of pain because of neural pathways constantly firing. Mind-body medicine helps break those repetitive cycles. For acute pain from injuries or infections or injuries etc., you obviously need to treat those with actual medicine. I have an incurable condition that affects my nerves and I was told I would be essentially disabled by this forever because there’s no real treatment other than painkillers. I am now about 70% better by trying to control my own nervous system through mind-body medicine.
Gretchen Burton, I wish I can find a Chiro who praticed other forms of healings. I was seeing one for sciatica nerve pain and he pressed so hard on my kidneys that I scream in pain. I had 7 sessions of treatments already but did not get any relief the 8th treatment was my last I never went back. I still have pain and now I am so scared that the sciatica on my right foot will flare up the ladt one was on the left side. All these trearments are so expensive for the average person. I think that in today's society nobody cares about you especially when you get older so sad😔
He is an amazing doctor. I started reading his books years ago. It is all integrated: mind body spirit. I so wish there was a national registry of health and healing. We seem to have it backwards in our "healthcare " system. Not one doctor ever asked me what I was eating or drinking. How can doctors go through medical school and not be well versed in nutrition. Thank you Dr. Weil for your contributions all of these years. ❤
As a Massage Therapist, The first things I ask to my patients when day come to me. Are: What are you eating, are Sleeping at least 8 hours?… How is your Spiritual and Emotional area?… The answer of those questions helps me to treat my patients. As a believer in YHWH and Jesus Christ praying for healing for my Clients is very important to me. I saw and experience Miracles on my Table. It’s very humbling and excited to see how ease healing is some times. Our health system is a mess and they are just to make money that is their plan. So they keep people sick because it’s convenient for them. Sad but true.
I am 55, have been following Dr. Weil since I was about 30....He has been a treasure to me, and following his advice has added such benefit to my life. He is a true lifelong student and amazing teacher. I believe all doctors should strive to follow his example, and the rest of us should expect this type of care.
@@marianmartin9441 It was Jim Rohn, one of the greatest personal development speakers in my opinion. Awesome, thanks for subscribing and welcome aboard!
Dr Weil is one of my early educators in wholistic health. By reading whatever I could find written or suggested by him, (starting with 8 weeks to optimal health over 20 years ago) I learned to read labels, buy organic (especially the dirty dozen), grow more of my own vegetables and to expand my connection with everything and everyone from the inside out as a natural integrated being. Words cannot express the gratitude I have for him and seeing him in this interview gives me such joy. Thank you!!!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Read 8 Weeks to Optimal Health and started to learn - since then, I seek out Dr. Weil and always benefit from it - I really like the fact that he evolves and grows, too but sticks to such smart principles of health. One thing I never forgot and always repeat to other people - besides food, nutrition, exercise, meditation, and medicine, make ART, MUSIC and NATURE some part of your life - so very true, Dr. Weil's words ~ (Spirituality helps too, if you are open to that and other things, too). I Iove his philosophy on overall health - everything he presents is backed up by a lot of research and he still respects traditional paths when they work best. Glad to hear he is still so active - great interview! Thanks for this!
My grandfather lived to 100 years old, he had a farm in mexico, he only ate beans, potatoes, rice, eggs, ocassionaly chicken soups and fish soups, no meat no pork, never, he drank black coffe no sugar, he was very healthy and strong til his last days.
No pork; no sugar; no white flour. So helpful - just cutting those 3 things! And most importantly, living for Jesus. Faith in Him is how we receive ETERNAL life (in addition to abundant life on this side - John 10:10).
So true. The unresolved conflict; I can literally feel it killing me when I’m at odds with any loved one. In about a day or so, I usually feel a sinus/respiratory illness try to sneak in, until I mentally decide to back off the stress, make efforts to resolve the issue, REST, and do breath work. The body knows!
This is so true also happens to me these unresolved issues are bad the sad part is they don't feel there's anything wrong just have to leave it to the universe
Yes. I had a severe neck injury in 2006 and a yoga instructor told me it would take at least 10-15 years. He was so right. I’m finally feeling better after years of debilitating pain. Still have a lot of pain but it’s “more quiet “. Yes. And also , healing our inner helps the body. 🕊🙏🏽🌺
@@veronicaherrera7586 you believed the yoga instructor so yes, you had and have, the pain. It took me 3 weeks to get to no pain, use my arm and walk better. Someone dared to tell me it will only get worse at the time. , i didn't believe that, neither did my body. Tell your body we don't accept having pain, add spices, honey turmeric and cut sugar and junk food. Have junk maybe once a week.
In my career in nursing Intensive care 25 years, long term care 4, hospice 9, used what my nursing instructor said “Ask a patient in pain, are you ready to be pain free? touching patents arm gently. Do deep breathing in through nose out through mouth completely. “ Miraculously most were pain free and no meds needed. Many dozed off and slept, awakening relaxed and refreshed.
I saw Dr. Weil on Oprah about 20yrs ago, and the man looks the same!!! He's the person who made me start eating berries! It is I believe part of what contributes to me haveing very wonderful health!!! He is definitely doing something wright! Hats off to you Dr. Weil, for your relentless effort...to echo what Lewis said!! A GREAT FORCE FOR GOOD YOU ARE!!
Ellen, I started eating berries--at least 5 days out of seven--when I heard Dr. Sanjay Gupta who is a brain surgeon said that if he had to recommend one food for brain health it would be berries.
Andrew Weil and I are the same age. I live on Keto and have eaten organic. Half of my life has been in Hawaii. I love learning new things. I agree with the mind over matter and everything you have said. Mahalo for all you have done to make natural choices. I have healed myself many times. We have been given so many gifts,that we need to live in a state of graditude!
This was my first visit to your channel. Great interview. I was also raised in C.S. and practiced until the age of 40. It still influences my life today at 73---no smoking, alcohol, caffeine, or drugs. I eat whole food, exercise, sleep well, and meditate. I'm always smiling. Peace and joy are present in my life.
I make everything from scratch at home and buy only from local farmers and grow my own food! 🕊 Huge difference in taste and smell and everything is natural and actually healthy. Screw the system
This guy weil is evil & fought against labeling GMO's along with the grocery store union, he does not want you to have the right to know what you're eating. Know your enemy!
79?😳?!?! He really does have an amazing youthfulness about him. The light in his eyes, his voice that sounds like that of a 30yr old, just the general way he carries himself.
My aunt is from OKINAWA and is in her 90's. She came to the States in the early 60's when she married my uncle. Because she continued many of her dietary habits and good genes ahe has never had any health issues.
I remember a woman I met some time ago who came from one of the small islands, they lived a healthy life style, grew their own food. Then came tourism and with that processed food and junk food. The rate of cancers and other disease shot up after that.
That might be true in healing yourself to a degree and it's proven we need all essential minerals and vitamins in amino acids and fatty acids to live healthy paint free to cease free life. I can see that there's a couple of minerals Andrew that you're missing in your diet otherwise you wouldn't have gray hair
Top foods for health: Salmon, brocolli, berries, green tea; matcha, dark chocolate 70% cocoa at least and olive oil. Lifestyle practices:Good sleep, meditation, breath work, good social life and connection, having sence of purpose.
@@anavonrebeur6121 :: The Brits National Health Service did a thirty year study and discovered One Key Vegetable every day was a key factor in a long healthy life, ONE MUSHROOM A DAY was the common factor.
So glad to see you here, Dr. Weil! I've followed you for well over a decade. ...Good to know more about your history. You are one of my "contemporary" heroes. Also, watching, listening to you in this (great) interview, I can tell that you are sincere and passionate about helping people.
I'm a retired nurse with chronic RA. I've studied herbal, native American medicine for years. And it's great. Heals people. And your right you loose your Medical Experience, when in fact...you have more knowledge. They call me Shaymen now. The world needs things that work.
Excellent! I'd recommend Grounding or Earthing - there's a few vids on it. Shoulder pain went away in one night of sleeping on a grounded sheet. I do eat healthy and recommend that of course. Grounding reduces the cortisol levels at night, I've been sleeping soundly ever since. Check it out!
I had a skin cancer on my back go from nothing to the size of a pencil eraser in about 3 weeks- right before the dreaded Christmas dinner with my dysfunctional and abusive family. I had it cut out on the 23rd Dec and also cut all contact with those horrid people. Was a huge wake-up call. I've always lived a clean and natural life but the family was the cause of eczema, sciatica, migraines, insomnia, anxiety. I feel like a pre-teen again without them.
Wow, so very true! So Happy for you!❤️🙏 Enjoy your new life free of narcissistic abusers! It's the best freedom and your body will continue to thank you for it!!
Dr. Weil has been a consistently forward thinking, sincere, intelligent scholar, teacher and practitioner. His books have inspired me for decades to practice an art of everyday medicine, to heal myself, to know to develop the insight to seek help when needed, and to be a light unto oneself. Thanks to both for this great interview.
Are you the William who surfed at Newport Beach in the 60's ? Sorry to be nosy but he was such a nice young guy and a good surfer . If you'd rather not answer , no problem :).
It’s so good to hear a medical practitioner saying things I’ve always suspected. It’s a question of first getting to know your own body and mind really well, and that’s not that difficult, then you know when it’s absolutely necessary to get outside help.
I grew up in 60s and 70s and my parents didn't trot to the doctor constantly. They had an arsenal of medicines and home remedies they knew how to apply. Frankly if you did feel it prudent to check with a doctor, he would confirm which remedies to apply. FACT doctors would tell people to do home remedies because they work, but the doctors would check out things to be sure it wasn't more serious (like pneumonia or appendicitis). And then send parents home with instructions on what natural remedies to use (poultices, inhalants, salves, tinctures, solutions etc.) Doctors used and prescribed naturopathic remedies UNTIL pharmaceuticals started making drugs that treated symptoms instead of being curative. Med schools started letting pharmaceuticals companies rewrite the text books and control what is being taught or not taught... apparently this dates back a ways. This is why my parents avoided doctors and went only to older doctors. Today's doctors have been taught to consider those things "wives tales" and a muttleheaded, hysterical, anti-female persona has been attached to home remedies.
I’m so happy to hear from Dr Weil. Very interesting interview. I’ve been a follower of dr Weil for many years. Not only I read and collected all his books, but also visited his clinic in Tucson. My very best doctor for many years was one of first doctors, who went trough Internship with Dr Weil. Thanks to dr Weil and my personal doctor I’m not a stranger to Homeopathy, Ayurveda, and Naturopathy. Dr Weil’s explanation of how Homeopathy works in one of his latest books is very simple and logical. Worth of gold.
I had pain in my body for 6 years and God healed me. After someone prayed for me that the pain goes away, I wake up the next day with no pain anymore. Haven't had pain since that day. God is good
@@itsmidtrib1569 My wife is being tested for cancer after being misdiagnosed. I am praying almost constantly. Please pray for her. Her name is Malen. She’s always been a blessing to people.
I am the same age as Dr. Weil and feel no aches and pains. I think the reason is my regular consumption of ginger. I also often do "relaxation response". Hope those are helpful.
@@musingfoodie1041 .The relaxation response is an autonomic reaction elicited by a mental device and a passive attitude that has been used for altered states of consciousness throughout various religious traditions and cultures. You can find a book written by Herbert Benson , “The Relaxation Response “( 1975 )
Another 🔥🔥🔥 interview!!! My mother was always more "holistic" growing up. I didn't go to the doctor unless it was SERIOUS. I've learned through my experience how much my mental health effects my physical health. I refuse to rely on 100 of medications, only to have more issues... I've seen my extended family suffer in their ignorance & stubbornness.. I will not. I totally get all of this! 🙏
I had mental health issues with depression that runs in my family, chronic depression. I put my faith in God & never needed medicine for that again! My mental health HAS Never been better, even through ups and downs in life! I know if your not a believer it might sound strange but there are MANY if not all Christians that would tell you the same. If you have LOVE in your heart… it heals so much!❤️
Love the comment about National Registry of Health and Healing... What a fantastic idea to introduce people with similar conditions who've healed! It creates hope, belief and a motivation to begin the healing process themselves. ❤
Hi, Lewis, I like the choices of the speakers that you have on your program. My best words to the most advanced thinker, Dr. Weil who, like a huge oak, stands his ground and his individual professional vision is amazing!!! Swimming against the traditional current needs the mind and the heart of an exceptional man ,like him. Most gratefully, Dr. Rimaletta Ray
You don't have to be a well educated person to understand this. When my sons were younger, about 30 to 35 years ago , when they would get hurt , I would hold them imediately and say the pain is going away. This was instinctively, and the pain would go away. This was way before the body mind connection. The mind is an incredible tool
I me too…. I will tell my children to breath and take deep breath’s! As holding your breath, we all do when we are in pain and it doesn’t allow oxygen to travel to the area of pain!
I spoke to you on the phone once in Tucson Dr. Andrew Weil and I'm terribly sorry I didn't do more with you. I was writing for Tucson Weekly during that period (2002-2006) and when I see you I have a strong memory of how wonderful you were and are and what a rare gem of a human being you are. I hope to meet you again. Stuart
It’s amazing that I have reached the point of no stress no anxiety, financially secure, I only eat once a day cut out all sugar, bring in my way down, and retired, during my years of working I was the opposite of everything above, but now that I reach this point you have to get and willing to except it, sometimes I feel like jumping out of my skin, I want to get pinched ask my self is this for real,
I’ve loved him since the mid 90’s. I found him thru an Iridologist in Boulder, CO in the mid-90’s. I had postpartum depression. She lead me to this man!!! I’m forever grateful. I wish that he had a program for people that aren’t from the medical profession. We ALL need his knowledge!!!
We must teach by the clarity of our example and we must walk our talk - it we are goin to talk about health we must look healthy and radiate it as such so others follow - Blessed It Be.
Thanks for the support. It's my out most pleasure having you here, thanks for your support you have been giving me all these years, I would love to talk to you privately andwerweil224@gmail.com
This is the BEST interview I've ever heard! AS I listened, Mr. Howes asked every question that I had as the interview went on. This has been life changing for me. I have 2 rare diseases, mitochondrial disease, Elhers Danlos, along with severe arthritis, heart issues etc etc. I have taken benadryl at night for years, which I suffer from 'brain fog '. I'll never take another again. I'll be ordering mocha tea today. I'll also listen to this more than once. SO much to soak in!! So thankful that I found this UA-cam channel!! Thank you for helping us all that's feeling helpless!!!!
I Love Dr. Andrew Weil. I was following him & buying his books decades ago. The man is incredible! He is so intelligent & knowledgeable about almost everything! I Love listening to him. He will teach you exactly what you need to do to take the Best care of yourself, health wise & in every other way! He is so interesting. Ty for interviewing him! 😘❤
I love this fascinating energetic vibrant mans thought processes. Look at his clarity of mind, his skin, his approach to controlling and directing his life path. I would join him if he started a therapist school.
Dr. Weill started all this integrated medicine.. I've been following him since the early 90's when I was undergoing Chemotherapy, Radiation etc for breast cancer.... survived so far in 2021 doing well. Vegan/Vegetarian/ modified Keto....🇺🇸🙏👍
I've shared this video with both my children. Lewis, I have been following you for a few years. I think what you are doing for people is amazing. Positive vibes to you!
Child of the 60s here: environmentalist, fitness enthusiast, and health professional. I've been a fan of Dr. Wile for decades...and refer to my small collection of his books often. Dude knows his stuff....and he has a talent for acquiring the information a lot of us would seek if we had the time and connections that he has. Learning from him has been a great asset to my life. I am now in my mid-60s....and look and feel great: get constant comments from people who think l'm still 40. I am OK with that!!! LOL 😆 👌 GREAT to see Dr. Weil here in interview on YT.... he is always well worth the listen!!! I always respect a person who is devoted to wellness... AND "practices what they preach".
Dr. Wile practices what Dr. Goundry advises: get a younger wife - she will give you young set of bacteria that will make you younger.They gave old cows bacteria from young cows and old cows became young again.
Dr. Goundry says that every living thing is a hotel for bacteria.As long as our guests are alive, happy and numerous, we are also alive and happy. Dr. Wile knows that.
@@stanleyhebda1976 ...LOL!!! Have to admit l have not heard that theory....but l do know that the thought of "younger bacteria" seems unlikely in the first place because individual bacteria cells do not tend to have long life-spans to begin with anyway. I'm thinking that theory is somewhat "half-baked"...
I agree with you I am in my late 60s and since I have not ate meat in 30 years and have followed good food practices most people think I am in my 40s. I am a walking testament to. " You are what you eat."
@@jerseystotler3615 ... There really "is something" to the "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT" Theory. I am not a strict vegetarian... but not much of a meat eater either. I will eat some poultry now and then (hopefully "free range")...some fish about weekly...and a small portion of red meat maybe about monthly. If l have a "vice" it would be my love of cheese: BUT l do try to achieve moderation and balance in all things. So far my sixties feel a lot like my thirties...no wrinkles yet either. I am also a former tennis player and endurance culyclist: so l am still also skating also on those benefits: with continued more moderate activities. All in all: not a bad way to live!! ENJOY!!!
Amazing and very very informative talk . So many useful tips for everyday health issues. Very many thanks to dr Weill and Lewis for bringing out this episode of conversation for us .
I always loved Dr. Weil’s attitude and love of natural medicine. Love!!! I grew up reading his books bc my mom had them all. ❤️ He does talk about the “unconscious” mind though, and I think he means the learned behavior, that’s basically part of us now. The thinking, doing, and now just being- all the habits and thinking we do is how we are now, not necessarily WHO we are. I always think it’s a little more complicated in this too - the brain is very complex, filled with neurotransmitters, synapses connections, micronutrients needed to function properly etc. It’s not always just turn your mind off from it and we are healed. The brain is crazy and it’s amazing what they are finding in the world of neurology and brain studies! Example: you can’t just tell a severely adhd person to go shutoff and focus and start writing lists etc- and then expect Miraculous miracles. It doesn’t work this way....there are true learned behaviors now part of how we are...
Also want to thank you for taking the time to educate us . To be frank im 52 many people look up to me but im starting to realize i know nothing when it comes to health wellness body and spirit but after being in extreme depression after losing my soulmate after 35 years, all i can do is take baby steps and try to pull back from mistakes and keep going .
Andrew Weil was way ahead of his time and everything he was talking about years ago is becoming common knowledge today. What a gift, a voice to help our overall health and to help us avoid a life of chronic illness and disease.
I’m so pleased to hear Dr Andrew Weil say “I have 2 big dogs that take me on walks” I have one big dog 🐕 who takes me on walks, and as we go I tell her “I’m so blessed to have you take me on walks” I do a lot of my Gratitude Affirmation on our walks. Plants, animals and outdoors…. My living room is lovingly referred to as “The Jungle Room” we have 2 cats and 1 dog, at 10,152 feet elevation in the Colorado mountains, and on the other side of our backyard is a San Isabel National Forest. Much Love And God Bless You
Its like I stumbled upon this video for a reason, healing my esophagus at the moment. Watching what I eat, how and when I eat it and looking at what is happening in my mind too.
Thank you Lewis for having Dr. Weil on your show. He has been out of the public eye for a while but he looks and sounds fantastic! I have two of his books and they are both great.
I love your videos and content. I was certified as a nursing assistant and medical assistant. Started for my RN and decided I didn't want to work the long hours away from my family and be forced to do conventional pills and surgery. I'm learning more about holistic and integrative medicine and want to help myself and others heal using these methods. Thank you for sharing!!
With your RN you have a better chance of influencing the system for the positive. You may have made the best choice for you though. Holistic medicine is till looked down upon . Good luck and God speed on your journey!
On this June 8, 2022 I want to wish Dr. Andrew Weil a happy 80th birthday and tell him that he is one of the wonders of the world. A man of wisdom, truth, integrity, courage, holiness and world redemption. Wishing him a lot of health and happiness and many more years of productive and revolutional doing. Love from Israel. Adam
Very skilled interviewer. He made the most of his short time with a world expert. He homed in and got so many essential nuggets of wisdom from Mr Weil. Thank you so much I have learnt a lot from this.💓
The thing about tea for some of us: we do not have the luxury of time to prepare the real tea properly. I checked into the green tea that Dr. Weil has on his website, and it is both labor and money intensive. For lay people who have a lot on their plate, even older people like me (and I am 77) I will experience stress just to have to go through the tea ritual while I have other important aspect in my life that need my attention. The interview is very informative, helpful and interesting.
When I turned 50 I decided to change my life mostly through spirituality and better diet and it’s working. I’m 56 now and by cutting out sugars and processed foods and eating whole grains and meditating and giving gratitude to the universe, all of my previous ailments went away and I feel better now than any other time in my adult life.

So happy to hear about the positive improvements in your health. Personally, I’ve been practicing Transcendental Meditation and have noticed many positive changes in my own life. Off all antidepressants, anxiety medications and “sleep aids”. Best of luck to you on your journey.
As humans we have certain species specific needs:
- Community
- Daily sufficient movement (lots of walking and some cardiovascular and strength training)
- Being outdoors (sunshine and connecting to the earth through our skin)
- Circadian rhythm (rising with sun; going to bed after sunset)
- Proper nutrition (locally grown organic foods and high quality animal foods such as red meat, organs, unpasteurised milk and cheese)
- A meaningful existence (something to live for other than yourself; giving to others; gratitude)
- Proper sleep
Its a simple but not so easy recipe in today's world.

i LOVE that Weil said he has dogs that take him for walks. What a wonderful mindset for a human being.
Yep, that was cute. He's right, though.
Got to walk the doggies!!
i Have the same thing...my dog takes me for walks...im so thankfull for her efforts
He has been my favorite since I read about him. He advocated Vit D a long time ago.
The only doctor that should call himself a doctor!!! He’s real, honest, open, and knowledgeable like no other. Luv him enormously and so grateful for all he brings to us. Thank you Dr. Andrew Weil for EVERYTHING you inform us of!!! 🙏💜😇

He changed my life since reading his books in the 90’s💕💕💕💕
@@b.williams9473 Dr John Bergman, he's a chiropractor, definitely changed my life about four years ago. You should check him out. :-)
Well back and neck pain from multiple rear end collisions and falls while in LA. One sciatica for 13 years. Saw many chiropractors then my boyfriend took me to holistic doctors. One chiro practiced applied kinesiology and was out of pain in 3 sessions!!! A miracle.
When you get a Kidney Stone ,the pain is not in your mind ,the pain is in your side and in your Groin.how do ya like me now.
@@petecarroll3949 so true
@@petecarroll3949 yes you’re right. However mind-body medicine is helpful for pain that linger long past the time it should’ve taken for it to heal. Sometimes nerves get caught in this chronic looping of pain because of neural pathways constantly firing. Mind-body medicine helps break those repetitive cycles. For acute pain from injuries or infections or injuries etc., you obviously need to treat those with actual medicine. I have an incurable condition that affects my nerves and I was told I would be essentially disabled by this forever because there’s no real treatment other than painkillers. I am now about 70% better by trying to control my own nervous system through mind-body medicine.
Gretchen Burton, I wish I can find a Chiro who praticed other forms of healings. I was seeing one for sciatica nerve pain and he pressed so hard on my kidneys that I scream in pain. I had 7 sessions of treatments already but did not get any relief the 8th treatment was my last I never went back. I still have pain and now I am so scared that the sciatica on my right foot will flare up the ladt one was on the left side. All these trearments are so expensive for the average person. I think that in today's society nobody cares about you especially when you get older so sad😔
@@NansGlobalKitchen I've seen stretching videos on here that helped my wife. Also worship healing
He is an amazing doctor. I started reading his books years ago. It is all integrated: mind body spirit. I so wish there was a national registry of health and healing. We seem to have it backwards in our "healthcare " system. Not one doctor ever asked me what I was eating or drinking. How can doctors go through medical school and not be well versed in nutrition. Thank you Dr. Weil for your contributions all of these years. ❤
As a Massage Therapist, The first things I ask to my patients when day come to me.
Are: What are you eating, are Sleeping at least 8 hours?… How is your Spiritual and Emotional area?…
The answer of those questions helps me to treat my patients.
As a believer in YHWH and Jesus Christ praying for healing for my Clients is very important to me. I saw and experience Miracles on my Table. It’s very humbling and excited to see how ease healing is some times.
Our health system is a mess and they are just to make money that is their plan. So they keep people sick because it’s convenient for them. Sad but true.
I am 55, have been following Dr. Weil since I was about 30....He has been a treasure to me, and following his advice has added such benefit to my life. He is a true lifelong student and amazing teacher. I believe all doctors should strive to follow his example, and the rest of us should expect this type of care.
Good advice thanks for your help to us regular people.

Dr Weil is one of my early educators in wholistic health. By reading whatever I could find written or suggested by him, (starting with 8 weeks to optimal health over 20 years ago) I learned to read labels, buy organic (especially the dirty dozen), grow more of my own vegetables and to expand my connection with everything and everyone from the inside out as a natural integrated being. Words cannot express the gratitude I have for him and seeing him in this interview gives me such joy. Thank you!!!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Probably the most insightful real human being I have heard in a long time, he deserves the top award
My journey also started with that book 😊
Read 8 Weeks to Optimal Health and started to learn - since then, I seek out Dr. Weil and always benefit from it - I really like the fact that he evolves and grows, too but sticks to such smart principles of health. One thing I never forgot and always repeat to other people - besides food, nutrition, exercise, meditation, and medicine, make ART, MUSIC and NATURE some part of your life - so very true, Dr. Weil's words ~ (Spirituality helps too, if you are open to that and other things, too). I Iove his philosophy on overall health - everything he presents is backed up by a lot of research and he still respects traditional paths when they work best. Glad to hear he is still so active - great interview! Thanks for this!
My grandfather lived to 100 years old, he had a farm in mexico, he only ate beans, potatoes, rice, eggs, ocassionaly chicken soups and fish soups, no meat no pork, never,
he drank black coffe no sugar, he was very healthy and strong til his last days.
No pork; no sugar; no white flour. So helpful - just cutting those 3 things!
And most importantly, living for Jesus. Faith in Him is how we receive ETERNAL life (in addition to abundant life on this side - John 10:10).
100 good for him ❤ but that is NOT old enough . Don't die ❤ EVER ! Eyes mind heart and soul wide open. NO FEAR!
That’s the diet most folks in Africa have/eat . We grew eating like that ; Fish from the rivers & lots of beans , peas & other whole grains.
Not the same food today in America 🇺🇸. 😔 Sad. Eyes mind heart and soul wide open . NO FEAR. Don't die, we are coming.
Sounds Like my diet. I'm sure he moved a lot as well!
Thank you. "Focus on your breath, rather than on your thoughts". Wow
So true. The unresolved conflict; I can literally feel it killing me when I’m at odds with any loved one. In about a day or so, I usually feel a sinus/respiratory illness try to sneak in, until I mentally decide to back off the stress, make efforts to resolve the issue, REST, and do breath work. The body knows!
This is so true also happens to me these unresolved issues are bad the sad part is they don't feel there's anything wrong just have to leave it to the universe
Yes! I have gotten sick before from the same thing. And when I made it right with the person, the sickness went away!
So true! I get anxiety and sad.
Dr. Weill is a marvel. He is the first person whose work I read about nutrition. It’s been a lifelong interest ever since.
I love this so much! I've been a nurse since 2009...I would love to find a medical fellowship like this! So wonderful!
The body has healing potential but folks must be patient with it. Takes time to heal.
...agreed! ... just as it “takes time” to become ill (...diet and lifestyle)...
Paula it also takes energy so when people don’t appreciate that fact they direct their mostly to other activities
Yes. I had a severe neck injury in 2006 and a yoga instructor told me it would take at least 10-15 years. He was so right. I’m finally feeling better after years of debilitating pain. Still have a lot of pain but it’s “more quiet “. Yes. And also , healing our inner helps the body. 🕊🙏🏽🌺
@@veronicaherrera7586 you believed the yoga instructor so yes, you had and have, the pain. It took me 3 weeks to get to no pain, use my arm and walk better. Someone dared to tell me it will only get worse at the time. , i didn't believe that, neither did my body. Tell your body we don't accept having pain, add spices, honey turmeric and cut sugar and junk food. Have junk maybe once a week.
How much time, I have a sister suffering with a disease for about 2yrs now, she needs healing now.
In my career in nursing Intensive care 25 years, long term care 4, hospice 9, used what my nursing instructor said
“Ask a patient in pain, are you ready to be pain free? touching patents arm gently. Do deep breathing in through nose
out through mouth completely. “
Miraculously most were pain free and no meds needed. Many dozed off and slept, awakening relaxed and refreshed.
Absolutely works There are instances where it won’t, that will be completely up to a patience desire and belief

I saw Dr. Weil on Oprah about 20yrs ago, and the man looks the same!!! He's the person who made me start eating berries! It is I believe part of what contributes to me haveing very wonderful health!!! He is definitely doing something wright! Hats off to you Dr. Weil, for your relentless effort...to echo what Lewis said!! A GREAT FORCE FOR GOOD YOU ARE!!
Something right
Ellen, I started eating berries--at least 5 days out of seven--when I heard Dr. Sanjay Gupta who is a brain surgeon said that if he had to recommend one food for brain health it would be berries.
YES! wild blueberries are healing to the body and support everything good.
If you want to feel good, berries are the answer! Try them, delicious!
Dr. Weil is a wise man. I've been following him for 20 years!
A master healer. A real doctor. Way ahead of his time. All around healing advice! The Guru. Thanks Dr. Weil
Love Dr.Weil
Andrew Weil and I are the same age. I live on Keto and have eaten organic. Half of my life has been in Hawaii. I love learning new things.

We have been given so many gifts,that we need to live in a state of graditude!

Yes, I agree... gratitude is very important.
I bought one of Dr Weil's books years ago and I have been hooked every since. He is so Brilliant ! He was my introduction to natural medicine.
He is really down to earth.
Dr. Weil, thank you for your awareness and seeking the road less traveled....I admire what you are saying.....
This was my first visit to your channel. Great interview. I was also raised in C.S. and practiced until the age of 40. It still influences my life today at 73---no smoking, alcohol, caffeine, or drugs. I eat whole food, exercise, sleep well, and meditate. I'm always smiling. Peace and joy are present in my life.

79?😳?!?! He really does have an amazing youthfulness about him. The light in his eyes, his voice that sounds like that of a 30yr old, just the general way he carries himself.
@Lares Deces LOL
And he has had that beard since the begining of time.....(well I did find a 40 year old photo when it was black.....😅😅)
@Sara Fox the beard makes him look way older, even if it wasn't white.
It's the way he conducts himself/having his clarity still

more about your history. You are one of my "contemporary" heroes. Also, watching, listening to you in this (great) interview, I can tell that you are sincere and passionate about helping people.

Excellent! I'd recommend Grounding or Earthing - there's a few vids on it. Shoulder pain went away in one night of sleeping on a grounded sheet. I do eat healthy and recommend that of course. Grounding reduces the cortisol levels at night, I've been sleeping soundly ever since. Check it out!
Is your arthritis cured?
I had a skin cancer on my back go from nothing to the size of a pencil eraser in about 3 weeks- right before the dreaded Christmas dinner with my dysfunctional and abusive family. I had it cut out on the 23rd Dec and also cut all contact with those horrid people. Was a huge wake-up call. I've always lived a clean and natural life but the family was the cause of eczema, sciatica, migraines, insomnia, anxiety. I feel like a pre-teen again without them.

I am 70 & have followed Dr.Andrew,since the 1980,he has always been right on !!!
It’s so good to hear a medical practitioner saying things I’ve always suspected. It’s a question of first getting to know your own body and mind really well, and that’s not that difficult, then you know when it’s absolutely necessary to get outside help.
I grew up in 60s and 70s and my parents didn't trot to the doctor constantly. They had an arsenal of medicines and home remedies they knew how to apply. Frankly if you did feel it prudent to check with a doctor, he would confirm which remedies to apply. FACT doctors would tell people to do home remedies because they work, but the doctors would check out things to be sure it wasn't more serious (like pneumonia or appendicitis). And then send parents home with instructions on what natural remedies to use (poultices, inhalants, salves, tinctures, solutions etc.)
Doctors used and prescribed naturopathic remedies UNTIL pharmaceuticals started making drugs that treated symptoms instead of being curative. Med schools started letting pharmaceuticals companies rewrite the text books and control what is being taught or not taught... apparently this dates back a ways. This is why my parents avoided doctors and went only to older doctors.
Today's doctors have been taught to consider those things "wives tales" and a muttleheaded, hysterical, anti-female persona has been attached to home remedies.
We need you in this world for example and wisdom! ❤️
I’m so happy to hear from Dr Weil. Very interesting interview. I’ve been a follower of dr Weil for many years. Not only I read and collected all his books, but also visited his clinic in Tucson. My very best doctor for many years was one of first doctors, who went trough Internship with Dr Weil. Thanks to dr Weil and my personal doctor I’m not a stranger to Homeopathy, Ayurveda, and Naturopathy. Dr Weil’s explanation of how Homeopathy works in one of his latest books is very simple and logical. Worth of gold.
believe you can heal yourself and accept that you will be healed.
I had pain in my body for 6 years and God healed me. After someone prayed for me that the pain goes away, I wake up the next day with no pain anymore. Haven't had pain since that day. God is good
God is good all of the time!

Another 🔥🔥🔥 interview!!! My mother was always more "holistic" growing up. I didn't go to the doctor unless it was SERIOUS.

I've seen my extended family suffer in their ignorance & stubbornness.. I will not. I totally get all of this! 🙏
Absolutely. The best thing you can do with modern medicine is stay away from it. Emergencies only!
I had mental health issues with depression that runs in my family, chronic depression. I put my faith in God & never needed medicine for that again! My mental health HAS Never been better, even through ups and downs in life! I know if your not a believer it might sound strange but there are MANY if not all Christians that would tell you the same. If you have LOVE in your heart… it heals so much!❤️
Love the comment about National Registry of Health and Healing... What a fantastic idea to introduce people with similar conditions who've healed! It creates hope, belief and a motivation to begin the healing process themselves. ❤
Hi, Lewis,
I like the choices of the speakers that you have on your program. My best words to the most advanced thinker, Dr. Weil who, like a huge oak, stands his ground and his individual professional vision is amazing!!!
Swimming against the traditional current needs the mind and the heart of an exceptional man ,like him.
Most gratefully,

You don't have to be a well educated person to understand this. When my sons were younger, about 30 to 35 years ago , when they would get hurt , I would hold them imediately and say the pain is going away. This was instinctively, and the pain would go away. This was way before the body mind connection. The mind is an incredible tool

I spoke to you on the phone once in Tucson Dr. Andrew Weil and I'm terribly sorry I didn't do more with you. I was writing for Tucson Weekly during that period (2002-2006) and when I see you I have a strong memory of how wonderful you were and are and what a rare gem of a human being you are.

This is my favorite Dr. Weil's interview. Every time I loose focus on his teachings I go back and watch this video again.

Q
It’s amazing that I have reached the point of no stress no anxiety, financially secure, I only eat once a day cut out all sugar, bring in my way down, and retired, during my years of working I was the opposite of everything above, but now that I reach this point you have to get and willing to except it, sometimes I feel like jumping out of my skin, I want to get pinched ask my self is this for real,
I really like this guy, have read most of his books, and newsletters.
I’ve loved him since the mid 90’s. I found him thru an Iridologist in Boulder, CO in the mid-90’s. I had postpartum depression. She lead me to this man!!! I’m forever grateful. I wish that he had a program for people that aren’t from the medical profession. We ALL need his knowledge!!!
We must teach by the clarity of our example and we must walk our talk - it we are goin to talk about health we must look healthy and radiate it as such so others follow - Blessed It Be.
It’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen Andrew. Thank you so much. What a treasure. ✨ 🇨🇦😉

Child of the 60s here: environmentalist, fitness enthusiast, and health professional. I've been a fan of Dr. Wile for decades...and refer to my small collection of his books often. Dude knows his stuff....and he has a talent for acquiring the information a lot of us would seek if we had the time and connections that he has. Learning from him has been a great asset to my life. I am now in my mid-60s....and look and feel great: get constant comments from people who think l'm still 40. I am OK with that!!! LOL 😆 👌
GREAT to see Dr. Weil here in interview on YT.... he is always well worth the listen!!! I always respect a person who is devoted to wellness... AND "practices what they preach".
Dr. Wile practices what Dr.
Goundry advises: get a younger wife - she will give you young set of bacteria that will make you younger.They gave old cows bacteria from young cows and old cows became young again.
Dr. Goundry says that every living thing is a hotel for bacteria.As long as our guests are alive, happy and numerous, we are also alive and happy. Dr. Wile knows that.
@@stanleyhebda1976 ...LOL!!! Have to admit l have not heard that theory....but l do know that the thought of "younger bacteria" seems unlikely in the first place because individual bacteria cells do not tend to have long life-spans to begin with anyway.
I'm thinking that theory is somewhat "half-baked"...
I agree with you I am in my late 60s and since I have not ate meat in 30 years and have followed good food practices most people think I am in my 40s. I am a walking testament to. " You are what you eat."
@@jerseystotler3615 ... There really "is something" to the "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT" Theory. I am not a strict vegetarian... but not much of a meat eater either. I will eat some poultry now and then (hopefully "free range")...some fish about weekly...and a small portion of red meat maybe about monthly. If l have a "vice" it would be my love of cheese: BUT l do try to achieve moderation and balance in all things.
So far my sixties feel a lot like my thirties...no wrinkles yet either.
I am also a former tennis player and endurance culyclist: so l am still also skating also on those benefits: with continued more moderate activities. All in all: not a bad way to live!! ENJOY!!!
Pain is a great teacher.
Not enjoyable lessons, but unforgettable experiences to share with others

Amazing and very very informative talk . So many useful tips for everyday health issues. Very many thanks to dr Weill and Lewis for bringing out this episode of conversation for us .
I always loved Dr. Weil’s attitude and love of natural medicine. Love!!! I grew up reading his books bc my mom had them all. ❤️
He does talk about the “unconscious” mind though, and I think he means the learned behavior, that’s basically part of us now. The thinking, doing, and now just being- all the habits and thinking we do is how we are now, not necessarily WHO we are. I always think it’s a little more complicated in this too - the brain is very complex, filled with neurotransmitters, synapses connections, micronutrients needed to function properly etc. It’s not always just turn your mind off from it and we are healed. The brain is crazy and it’s amazing what they are finding in the world of neurology and brain studies!
Example: you can’t just tell a severely adhd person to go shutoff and focus and start writing lists etc- and then expect Miraculous miracles. It doesn’t work this way....there are true learned behaviors now part of how we are...
I loved this episode so much!! Can’t get enough of this channel.

To be frank im 52 many people look up to me but im starting to realize i know nothing when it comes to health wellness body and spirit but after being in extreme depression after losing my soulmate after 35 years, all i can do is take baby steps and try to pull back from mistakes and keep going .
Andrew Weil was way ahead of his time and everything he was talking about years ago is becoming common knowledge today. What a gift, a voice to help our overall health and to help us avoid a life of chronic illness and disease.
I’m so pleased to hear Dr Andrew Weil say
“I have 2 big dogs that take me on walks”
I have one big dog 🐕 who takes me on walks, and as we go I tell her “I’m so blessed to have you take me on walks” I do a lot of my Gratitude Affirmation on our walks.
Plants, animals and outdoors….
My living room is lovingly referred to as “The Jungle Room” we have 2 cats and 1 dog, at 10,152 feet elevation in the Colorado mountains, and on the other side of our backyard is a San Isabel National Forest.
Much Love And God Bless You
Its like I stumbled upon this video for a reason, healing my esophagus at the moment. Watching what I eat, how and when I eat it and looking at what is happening in my mind too.
Oregano oil ♥️ and wild indigo oil

Thank you Lewis for having Dr. Weil on your show.
He has been out of the public eye for a while but he looks and sounds fantastic!
I have two of his books and they are both great.
Your podcast has such a sincere approach. I’m so happy you’re in the world! More power! God keep and bless you!
Lewis, I have followed Dr. Weil for so many years and this was some of the best of him! Thank you so much you did an amazing job with this interview!
Good to see Dr. Weil love him!Ive read his books and followed him in the 80s,90s
This interview offers so much nutritional gems.
I love your videos and content. I was certified as a nursing assistant and medical assistant. Started for my RN and decided I didn't want to work the long hours away from my family and be forced to do conventional pills and surgery. I'm learning more about holistic and integrative medicine and want to help myself and others heal using these methods. Thank you for sharing!!
With your RN you have a better chance of influencing the system for the positive. You may have made the best choice for you though. Holistic medicine is till looked down upon . Good luck and God speed on your journey!
On this June 8, 2022 I want to wish Dr. Andrew Weil a happy 80th birthday and tell him that he is one of the wonders of the world.
A man of wisdom, truth, integrity, courage, holiness and world redemption. Wishing him a lot of health and happiness and many more years of productive and revolutional doing. Love from Israel. Adam

Very skilled interviewer. He made the most of his short time with a world expert. He homed in and got so many essential nuggets of wisdom from Mr Weil. Thank you so much I have learnt a lot from this.💓
I loved watching you scribble down notes like a child learning how to be a super hero......made me smile.
The thing about tea for some of us: we do not have the luxury of time to prepare the real tea properly. I checked into the green tea that Dr. Weil has on his website, and it is both labor and money intensive. For lay people who have a lot on their plate, even older people like me (and I am 77) I will experience stress just to have to go through the tea ritual while I have other important aspect in my life that need my attention. The interview is very informative, helpful and interesting.
