Who is Dr. Weil?

Dr. Andrew Weil is one of the most influential personalities in the alternative health field. He is a Harvard Medical School graduate who also holds an AB degree in biology (botany) from Harvard University. At his ranch in Tucson, Ariz., Dr. Weil does his writing from his home office, and has two dogs, both Rhodesian Ridgebacks. He maintains a large organic garden, full of fruits and vegetables. He uses the fresh produce in his own cooking, since he is an avid home-chef.

Dr. Weil is also at the forefront of the Integrative Medicine movement. After completing his medical training, Dr. Weil reported he had a gut feeling that should he become ill, he would not want to be treated by conventional methods. He believes in the power of natural medicine, and through his books, lectures, television and radio appearances, and his web site, www.drweil.com, he enlightens millions of people around the world about the principles of Optimum Health.

Weil is also a best-selling author and editorial director of DrWeil.com, an online resource for healthy living based on an integrative medicine philosophy. Weil’s books include the national bestsellers Spontaneous Healing, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health, Eating Well for Optimum Health, and The Healthy Kitchen.  He also authors the popular Self Healing newsletter and a monthly column for Prevention magazine. As a frequent guest on Larry King Live and Oprah, Weil provides information and insight on how to incorporate conventional and complementary medicine practices in one’s life to optimize the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
