More quotes by Andrew Weil
Insurance companies, whether private or government owned, must be compelled to pay for health-promoting measures. In turn, this will encourage physicians to offer such treatments in earnest.
Andrew Weil
You've got to experiment to figure out what works.
Andrew Weil
Human beings and plants have co-evolved for millions of years, so it makes perfect sense that our complex bodies would be adapted to absorb needed, beneficial compounds from complex plants and ignore the rest.
Andrew Weil
Healing is making whole, restoring a state of perfection and balance that has been lost.
Andrew Weil
Most disease is lifestyle related and preventable
Andrew Weil
If the only way you could read an email was to run a mile first, the urge would quickly die. Human beings constantly do subconscious effort/reward calculations. Tapping a screen is the easiest of physical tasks.

Following an anti-inflammato ry diet can help counteract the chronic inflammation that is a root cause of many serious diseases, including those that become more frequent as people age. It is a way of selecting and preparing foods based on science that can help people achieve and maintain optimum health over their lifetime.
Andrew Weil
Studies have shown that people who are physically active sleep better than those who are sedentary. The more energy you expend during the day, the sleepier you will feel at bedtime.
Andrew Weil

Andrew Weil
Everyone prefers some foods over others, but some adults take this tendency to an extreme. These people tend to prefer the kinds of bland food they may have enjoyed as children - such as plain or buttered pasta, macaroni and cheese, cheese pizza, French fries and grilled cheese sandwiches - and to restrict their eating to just a few dishes.
Andrew Weil
By keeping my hand in that, it's the way I keep learning. The main way you learn in medicine is by practicing and working with patients.
Andrew Weil
Giving gifts to others is a fundamental activity, as old as humanity itself. Yet in the modern, complex world, the particulars of gift-giving can be extraordinarily challenging.
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
We're all affected by music. It has the power to inspire, uplift us, change our moods, and even alter consciousness.
Andrew Weil
I think instead [of happiness] we should be working for contentment... an inner sense of fulfillment that's relatively independent of external circumstances.
Andrew Weil
Just the attempt to learn a [new] language is like running different software through the brain.

Many exercise forms - aerobic, yoga, weights, walking and more - have been shown to benefit mood.
