About this product

Product Information

Spontaneous Healing . . . Eight Weeks to Optimum Health . . . Eating Well for Optimum Health . . . The Healthy Kitchen in each of his widely acclaimed, best-selling books, Dr. Andrew Weil has been an authoritative and companionable guide through a uniquely effective combination of traditional and nontraditional approaches to health and healthy living. Now he gives us a book about aging that is unlike any other in the breadth and depth of its information and understanding. Hugely informative, practical, and uplifting, it is infused with the engaging candor and common sense that have been the hallmarks of all his books. At the heart of Healthy Aging is Dr. Weil's belief that although aging is an irreversible process, there are myriad things we can do to keep our minds and bodies in good working order through all phases of life. To that end, he draws on the new science of biogerentology (the biology of aging) as well as on the secrets of healthy longevity diet, activity, and attitudethat he has gathered firsthand from cultures around the world. In Part One"The Science and Philosophy of Healthy Aging"he explains how the body ages, and he explores the impact of gender, genes, environment, and lifestyle on an individual's experience and perception of the process of aging. He describes the various would-be elixirs of life extensionherbs, hormones, and antiaging "medicines"separating myth from fact and clearly delineating the difference between the spurious notions of preventing or reversing the process of aging and the real possibilities of inhibiting or delaying the onset of diseases that become more likely as we age. He writes movingly about the ways in which an acceptance of aging can be a significant part of doing it well, and of recognizing and appreciating the great rewards of growing older: depth and richness of experience, complexity of being, serenity, wisdom, and its own kind of power and grace. In Part Two"How to Age Gracefully"Weil details an easy-to-implement Anti-inflammatory Diet that will protect the immune system and aid your body in resisting and adapting to the changes that time brings. And he provides extensive practical advice on exercise; preventive health care; stress management; physical, mental, and emotional flexibility; and spiritual enhancementall of which can help you achieve and maintain the best health throughout the lifelong process of aging. Healthy Aging a book for people of all agesis Andrew Weil's most important and far-reaching book yet.

"Dr. Weil has arguably become American's best-known doctor." The New York Times Magazine "Forget plastic surgery. Skip the pricey face creams and the drugs for creaky bodies. Natural-medicine champion Weil, who's now in his sixties, covers longevity research, aging, and how he's embracing the experience." Life Magazine "Weil wants us to be sensible about growing old. . . . He argues that we should not fight aging. There's no winning that war. Instead, we should concentrate on aging well."

We Can Extend Our Lives!
This probably is the finest book on personal health and longevity I've read. I'm 81 years old and very health conscious. Doctor Weil writes in an engaging manner, and the content is fast paced. The chapters are fairly short, say about 20 pages each, but each chapter is chock-full of useful information that is easily understood. The book is organized into two major sections of equal length. The first one-half covers the theory of wellness and aging, specifically why we age? The latter portion covers Dr. Weil's specific recommendation for longevity, including diet, supplements, exercise, rest and sleep, and the important role of our thoughts, emotions and attitudes. I highly recommend this book without reservation.

Healthy Aging
I bought this book for two reasons: I saw him on TV and I'm interested in the topic. The first half of the book explains why we age. What happens to our cells and how cell damage causes diseases as we age. This part of the book is interesting but at times it was way over my head for comprehension. However, I do understand the need to explain before you tell what to do about it. The second part of the book was very good and very useful. It describes what you can do now to stop the damage and how to live...healthy. From nutrion to supplements and exercise.

Dr. Weil's book offers abundant information in simplest way to understand
Abundant information on how you can cope with aging, what is happening in your body and how to live better. Dr. Weil answers many questions I have about aging and he explains in simplest ways. I highly recommend his book to those seeking answers on aging, how to take care of your body and health, what to eat, how much sleep you need, and whole perspective of aging and changes in your life.

This is by far one of the best books out there if you want to consult one source on what to do to be as healthy as possible, no matter what your age! He is an inspiring author and a brilliant man.
