More quotes by Andrew Weil
American businesses are struggling to pay outrageous, exploitive insurance bills for their employees, hampering our ability to compete globally.
Andrew Weil
In my experience, the more people have, the less likely they are to be contented. Indeed, there is abundant evidence that depression is a 'disease of affluence', a disorder of modern life in the industrialized world.
Andrew Weil
We're all affected by music. It has the power to inspire, uplift us, change our moods, and even alter consciousness.
Andrew Weil
Low levels of vitamin D in the population as a whole suggest that most people need to take a vitamin D supplement. This may be especially true for seniors, as the ability to synthesize vitamin D in the skin declines with age.
Andrew Weil
Imagine that each time you inhale, that the universe is breathing into you, and as you exhale it is breathing out of you.
Andrew Weil
In my view, the best gift is one that benefits both the receiver and the planet.
Andrew Weil
Pay attention to your body. The point is everybody is different. You have to figure out what works for you.
Andrew Weil
I find that low protein diets often contribute to improvement in patients with immune system problems ... In fact, it would be hard to become deficient in protein in our country even if you tried.

Fitting a walk into a busy life can be challenging, so I suggest walking rather driving to work or to run errands as often as you can - in other words, think of walking as alternative transportation.
Andrew Weil
Get people back into the kitchen and combat the trend toward processed food and fast food.
Andrew Weil
One of the most obvious ways dogs can improve our physical and mental health is via daily walks.
Andrew Weil
As any doctor can tell you, the most crucial step toward healing is having the right diagnosis. If the disease is precisely identified, a good resolution is far more likely. Conversely, a bad diagnosis usually means a bad outcome, no matter how skilled the physician.
Andrew Weil
When people are told to eat many small meals, what they may actually hear is eat all the time, making them likely to respond with some degree of compulsive overeating. It's no coincidence, I think, that obesity rates began rising rapidly in the 1980s more or less in tandem with this widespread endorsement of more frequent meals.
Andrew Weil
My passion for gardening may strike some as selfish, or merely an act of resignation in the face of overwhelming problems that beset the world. It is neither. I have found that each garden is just what Voltaire proposed in Candide: a microcosm of a just and beautiful society.
Andrew Weil
I'm not against high-tech medicine. It has a secure place in the diagnosis and treatment of serious disease.
Andrew Weil
Another aspect of the psychedelic vision for me that has been very profound, is the sense that every-thing is alive or at that at least, there is no distinction between what we call living and non-living.
Andrew Weil
I don't get money from the vitamins that I make. My after tax profits go to a foundation that supports integrative medicine.
Andrew Weil
In the world at large, people are rewarded or punished in ways that are often utterly random. In the garden, cause and effect, labor and reward, are re-coupled. Gardening makes sense in a senseless world. By extension, then, the more gardens in the world, the more justice, the more sense is created.
Andrew Weil
I expect that essential oils may some day prove a vital weapon in the fight against strains of antibiotic-resi stant bacteria.
Andrew Weil
Human beings have survived for millennia because most of us make good decisions about our health most of the time.
