Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
You've taken the first step toward optimum health. This book will give you more information about my philosophy along with answers to some questions I am asked most frequently.

I wrote Spontaneous Healing and 8 Weeks to Optimum Health because I wanted to call attention to the innate, intrinsic nature of the healing process. I've always believed that the body can heal itself if you give it a chance. Why? Because it has a healing system. If you're feeling well, it's important to know about this system so that you can enhance your well-being. If you are ill, you'll also want to know about it because it is your best hope of recovery.

To maintain optimum health requires commitment. This book--and the others in the series--can give you much of the basic information you need about diet, supplements, common illnesses, natural remedies, and healthy living.

All of these questions originated on "Ask Dr. Weil," my program on the World Wide Web.

Customer Reviews

The health Guru gives you the scoop on vitamins and minerals
In this 83 page book, health guru Andrew Weil, M.D. offers his expert advice and guidance to help you remain healthy and fight off illness with the help of selected vitamins, minerals, and herbs. He sets the record straight regarding multivitamins and minerals, Vitamin B12, herbal remedies, antioxidants and other products that are in vogue today. Dr. Weil helps you get on the best road to recovery from sickness and/or improve your overall health. There's an awful lot of valuable information and advice in this little book. It's certainly worth the price and the quick read. I find myself referring to it often. It's a great companion to his other books.

Time Saver - short and to the point summaries.
This book is a great little source of info on Vitamines. Can be used as a quick guide to vitamines for the everyday person. Most sections are only a page long. The format is like a Vitamine FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions. Great price.

Good supplemental information
I quickly found out what the "Ask Dr. Weil..." series of books are like. I have read two of Dr. Weil's full length books and was expecting more of the same. This book is 75 pages of Question and Answer format articles about vitamins and some herbal remedies, almost like a high quality Internet FAQ.

The book is interesting with a number of specific recomendations on how to take vitamins for particular illnesses. It is good information for the price (...).

If you have read one of Dr. Weil's previous full length books that deal with vitamins you will feel like you are reading a condensed version of the same information. Like all of Dr. Weil's books there is a good Resources section to help you find more in-depth information.
