Eating Well for Optimum Health

The Essential Guide to Food, Diet, and Nutrition

De: Andrew Weil M.D.

Narrado por: Andrew Weil M.D.

From one of our most trusted authorities on health and alternative health care, a comprehensive and reassuring audio about food, diet, and nutrition.

Building on the scientific and philosophical underpinnings of his enormous best seller Spontaneous Healing and presenting the kind of practical information that informed his 8 Weeks to Optimum Health, Dr. Weil now provides us with a program for improving our well-being by making informed choices about how and what we eat. He explains the safest and most effective ways to lose weight; how diet can affect energy and sleep; how foods can exacerbate or minimize specific physical problems; how much fat to include in our diet; what nutrients are in which foods; and much, much more. He makes clear that an optimal diet will both supply the basic needs of the body and fortify the body's defenses and mechanisms of healing.

Eating Well for Optimum Health stands to change - for the better and the healthier - our most fundamental ideas about eating.

All technical Info

The book has great information. If you’re looking for technical information as to what to eat and why to eat it, this is the book for you. However, if you’re looking for recipes then I suggest that you buy the hard copy of this book.

A book for anyone whose serious about their health

Dr. Andrew Weil goes through all the elements to a healthy diet, and what must be avoided. Nutrition is a very difficult thing to master, and the most difficult element is that the "optimal diet" for health varies from individual to individual. Andrew Weil gives you the tools to figure the optimal diet out for yourself. What more can you ask?
