From the best-selling author of SPONTANEOUS HEALING, a brilliantly conceived, safe and effective eight-week programme for improving and maintaining health. Dr Weil first explains, then shows how, week by week, gradual changes can lead to long-term benefits such as greater vitality, weight loss and a body which heals itself. Incorporating alternative medicines and treatments, he provides specific and detailed information on diet (with 50 recipes), exercise, stress reduction techniques, and vitamins and supplements. He also customizes programmes for a dozen categories, such as pregnant women, people at risk of cancer, overweight people, and senior citizens. Building on the breakthrough thinking of SPONTANEOUS HEALING, Dr Weil provides an invaluable means to maintain health and lessen the need for medical intervention.
