Healthy Aging: A Lifelong Guide to Your Well-Being
I am so disapointed in this book. It is a lot of endless stories of his mother and tribes and such but nothing to help the average working American. I found more vitamin and supplement information in my copy of “Earl Mindlers Vitamin Bible” which is over ten years old. I could get more vitamin information off a cereal box. I never did get far enough in the book to find out if he is or ever was a medical doctor. He sounds like a P.H.D with a lot of medical terms but no real conclusive information. Save your money. The American Heart Association can tell you ten times more on their “free” web-site.

There’s nothing new here. There’s no fountain of youth, eat your
vegetables, exercise, etc. etc.
I knew I was in trouble when the doctor tells me that the lack of stem cell research is the fault of the religious right.
Save your money.

If Dr. Weil is such a “nutritional guru” and “health expert,” why is it he is clinically obese?
Why doesn’t he practice what he preaches? I would guess both he and Dr. Phil have bodyfat percentages close to 30%.
I’m tired of all these supposed health gurus writing these books, telling people how they should and shouldn’t eat, when they can’t even get healthy themselves. I think Dr. Weil is full of it.

Why don’t these people read the book before they criticize it? Oh look, a chunky guy wrote a book about health. He must be full of it because, you know, fat people aren’t intelligent enough to study something even if they can’t or won’t (for whatever reason) apply it to their lives.
FYI, he has a degree from Harvard Medical School.
I know Amazon is full of tards who get off on the fact that they can post anonymously, but this is pretty ridiculous.

Inside the book Dr. Andrew Weil provides information in a clear way (I like the way he writes) that should help his readers age in a healthy way. But for the front cover I subtract one star. The doctor tries to hide how big and round he really is on the cover by dressing in black. And the big white beard makes his body covered in black appear smaller relative to his head, an illusion of fitness. By not admitting that he has a weight problem Dr. Weil may tend to redefine obesity in an unhealthy direction (maybe that is why he is so popular with his “large” public). Weil should demonstrate some real self-discipline (meditating apparently is not enough) to his readers by eating less and excercising more (even if that means one less book).
