Movie Reviews of Dr. Andrew Weil's Guide to Eating Well
Movie Review: Good but extremely basic
Summary: 4 Stars
Dr. Weil has a very sensible and holistic approach to eating which is well explained in this program. I like his emphasis on debunking fad diets and on making eating pleasurable and socially integrative. He covers all the basic concepts related to healthy eating competently and clearly. I personally was hoping for something more advanced, since the information in this video is really oriented to those who know very little about nutrition. If you have been keeping up with the literature, there will be little new information here. Actually, Dr. Weil's DVD on healthy aging contains some interesting information on healthful properties of foods and spices in the Okinawan diet which are not contained here and which were new to me. But, even if you know all this, it never hurts to reinforce it and this video is a succinct and motivational way to do so.
Summary of Dr. Andrew Weil's Guide to Eating Well
"One of holistic medicine's most authoritative voices" -- Publishers WeeklyGood carbs, bad carbs? Low fat, no fat? Is protein the solution or the problem? After so much conflicting diet advice, one of America's best-known and most respected doctors offers a sensible approach that emphasizes enjoyment over deprivation and long-term health benefits over short-term weight loss. Dr. Weil assures us there is no confusion among nutritional experts about the optimal diet for health and longevity. And it's the very same diet that will naturally keep you at a healthy weight. Understanding inflammation to be the root cause of many chronic illnesses, he provides science-based recommendations to help combat specific health concerns, all as part of what he calls the Anti-Inflammatory Diet. He also addresses the subject of dietary supplements, what's downright dangerous and what can help.
Inside the DVD, you'll find a printed pocket guide that encapsulates much of Dr. Weil's advice, including energy-boosting eating tips and a shopping cart guide to the healthiest foods.
DVD FEATURES INCLUDE bonus footage not seen on the PBS broadcast, the Eating Well Pocket Guide, and a bio of Dr. Weil.
