Amen brother. This is what I've tried to tell my family and they acted like I was crazy.
He's 70. No one can say whether he'll live as long, or as well as Jack LaLane or not, but I want you to remember that weight is not the sole indicate or health.
After listening to his lectures and reading his books, I can attest that what he professes makes good, simple sense. He advocates nothing more than eating full-fat, whole organic foods over low-fat and non-fat conventional processed foods.
Then why is he so fat in his videos?
thank you! it's amazing how this is STILL not part of mainstream knowledge. thank the pharmaceutical companies who are busy hawking their wares, i suppose.
Looking for evidence of lower heart disease and cancer on Crete - couldn't find it. Just says people of Crete consume a lot of olive oil. I DID find this "When researchers from the University of Crete recently compared residents of Crete who had heart disease with residents free of the disease, they found that the residents with heart disease ate a diet with “significantly higher daily intakes” of monounsaturated fats (principally olive oil) as well as all fats."
True Food Kitchen restaurant chain belongs to him, good food but pricey, almost all organic...
thank you dr. weil!! this message urgently needs to get out to people.
I eat a high carb, low fat diet - I weigh average 110-115. A good friend- same height - has always eaten a lot of meat, a lot of fat - she's probably close to 200 lbs., if not more. Wonder why.
Great knowledge nugget sir!! You nailed it!! Thanks
While fat is an essential macronutrient, I would not rely on olive oil or any other oil as my main source. Oils are highly caloric and their fat content is roughly 50% saturated fat. So, if we want to pack on calories and saturated fat in order to obtain protective polyphenols, there are much better candidates such as nuts and seeds. Those nuts and seeds are packed with Omega 3's which Dr. Weil correctly characterizes as essential. Moreover, processed foods containing oil are a marker of a low quality food....you can bet that it's densely caloric and fatty. Cooking with oil is totally unnecessary but everyone seems obsessed with the idea while proclaiming it to be the hallmark of Mediterranean Diet. Nonsense.
I think nature thought it right, eat all kinds of meats and fats nature offeres, plus the vegetables. No processed, or super super suuuuper minimal intake just for the fun of doing bad once in a while.
If fat doesn't make you fat, why is Andrew Weil fat?
Let me guess you are a yet another irrational VEGAN lunatic !
He is not fat, everyone is fat who is not a fitness model in your opinion?
he could just be eating TOO much of the good stuff. 1 sweet potate vs 5, as side dish. You can be healthy but you will end up with a belly. Examples like that. Body types help in the outcome of looks as well (think viking). Being FAT is not Necessarily telling you he eates the wrong stuff, that´s why when you go to a nutritionist, one of first things they ask is what do you eat regularly (to check nutrition, health). My tendency is to be very thin, it´s my type, regardless of food.
So when olive oil kinda burns your throat or tastes slightly spicy it's good? Wow I thought mine was maybe rancid because of that.
What amazing insights.
Subsidize hemp instead of soy and corn!!!!
I think omega 6 itself is not the problem per say but rather that it is rancid or rotted omega 6. that people are eating. I ate extra virgin olive oil once off a spoon, and I almost vomited, I got the dry heaves, my body absolutly didn't like it, so I use it in salad dressings. I love my whole milk too. yummy.
Thank you for the very informative presentation.
don't judge the person just the advice give. He is at an age when people naturally get bigger. Also he might have an underlying medical condition or he may not exercise enough. Either way judge his advice not him.
check the video on omega 3 and 6 ratio.
Not always do we do what we know to be right, right? Still the right´s Information´s right if you research. He may be doing all the right stuff Except Not eating Lots and Lots... that could be it. Have half a sweet potatoe vs have 5, as a side dish, for example.... you´ll get a belly. There are body types as well which help the outcome of looks.
Right on Andy!!
sounds like santa claus donent want to eat cookies any more
don´t reject such a gift of energy boost, but don´t become blind either because of energy and loss of weight only... here caring for long-term Health too :) That´s why someone responded you with the omega 3 to 6 RATIo
I'm a fan of Dr. Weil; read several of his books, and respect his work tremendously. But I never saw him talk about the very selective data published by Ancel Keys, upon which many books on diet, fat, and heart disease were subsequently written.
exactly!
I limited fats to 10% for 3 years
I know what you mean...He has all this information on how "GREAT" it is. atleast be a model of your promotion.
"Hey, set girl! Can I get a black backdrop to blend in with my black shirt and thus make me appear invisible rather than obese?"
@o5carmicha3l but he is a comfortable happy kind of healthy fat, not an obese sweetjesusweneedaforklift kind of fat
You have done your homework. Caldwell esselstyn showed that plant based diet alone reverses heart disease.
dr. weil would be more credible if he lost some weight
Because he likes to EAT .
Hes not fat at all, it is shown that old people with more bodymass tend to live longer (obviously not obese but up to arround 20 bodyfat)
Look at the work of Glen Gaesser he is as skinny as a corpse and wrote the book "big fat lies"
Shown????where? This is not shown in medical research???Whaaat, quite the opposite, less calories, less eating lighter weight (BMI less than 23), keys to health and longevity

Dr. Weil looks like he eats too much fat. Of course what makes him fat is an excess of calories, and fat is the macronutrient that gets stored as fat preferentially to protein or carbs being converted to fat for bodily storage. Weil's olive oil and coconut oil and butter is nothing but junk food. These extracts have no fiber, no protein, no minerals and very very few, if any, vitamins. The RDA for Omega 3 is a paltry 1.6 grams. For omega 6, it's only 14 grams per day. This much fat is already contained in our food. We don't need additional oil. Just like we don't need sugar or refined flour. Oil has 9 calories per gram, while protein and carbs have just 4 calories per gram! Excessive dietary fat causes insulin resistance.
Butter is a junk food, are you serious? Ever heard of butric acid, CLA, vitamins A/D/E/K, ton of minerals, and you need fat to absorb certain nutrients. Coconut oil is empty calorie, however it has some beneficial acids lauric acid for one.
Mathew Messer You mean butyric acid don't you? "Butyric acid is present in, and is the main distinctive smell of, human vomit" says Wikipedia. You fat lovers want stinky puke? Check out the figures for just one stick of butter. Calories: 810. No protein. No fiber. Vitamin A 94% RDA. Folate 1%, B 3%, B5 2%, B12 8%, D 17%, E 35%, K 37% That's it for vitamins. For minerals, Calcium 5% RDA, Copper %, Magnesium 1%, Phosphorus 4%, Potassium 1%, Selenium 2%, Zinc 1% So here you have just 1 stick of butter that amounts to about 1/3 of your total calories, yet you're not even close to 33% of your minerals and vitamins for the day. Butter is junk food. Empty calories, mostly. Compare to the lowly sweet potato
810 calories of sweet potato: Protein 26% of RDA. Fiber 81% Vitamin A 4,444% Folate 26% B1 61% B2 44% B3 33% B5 151% B6 116% C 25% E 15% K 14% Calcium 47% Copper 158% Iron 72% Magnesium 56% Manganese 106% Phosphorus 63% Potassium 68% Selenium 10% Zinc 6%
Just this one example shows what crappy food butter is. As for coconut oil, lauric acid is not essential. Meaning our own body can make as much as it needs itself.
allencrider Who made this chart, what stick of butter they used? Grass fed, free range? I doubt it, Sweet potato has no Vitamin A, zero, its beta carotene, wich you may or may not be able to convert to Vit A, Fiber is not essential, you need zero to survive, as many populations have. However even if it would have no minerals vitamins, the fat content is still wonderfull, and makes food taste great.
You're an idiot!
at 6:23, his credibility on olive oil goes downhill. If I had my name on an olive oil label, I too would proclaim it as a health food. Money money money!
Santa Claus gives dietary advice
Maybe if he grows his beard long enough not only will it cover those chins, it will hide those moobs and that big ole bell-ay!
He seems to need to cut back on fruits and vegetables.
This guy is pushing olive oil because he is in the business. Right away this brings up red flags. The only oil that apparently doesn't clog your system is fish oil. All other oils technically are not that healthy for you. Only fish oil is safe for your system. He sounds like a credible person, but science is starting to show that the Mediterranean diet is successful not because of the olive oil, its the opposite. The amount of vegetables in this diet is the key to its success. One has to be very careful when dealing with oils. The odd occasional dish with oil is fine. But to say that its healthy to include oils in your regular diet is crazy.
LOL!!!
Whole food plant based diet is the way to go. Get your fats from food sources not added to your food. Eat the olive, peanut, seeds and nuts to get the fat, don't cook or add it. Forks over Knives.
veganize
Laughable nonsensical factually incorrect comment from another preachy vegan!
More bacon for me!
hahahahahaha
lol!!
I totally agree. I know a LOT of people on low fat diets and they are very lean and healthy. He's full of crap. If his diet worked, he'd be lean by now. He's not. Why? It don't work.
ok so why is dr weil obese? he's got a huge belly
he could just be eating TOO much of the good stuff. 1 sweet potate vs 5, as side dish. You can be healthy but you will end up with a belly. Examples like that. Body types help in the outcome of looks as well (think viking). Being FAT is not Necessarily telling you he eates the wrong stuff, that´s why when you go to a nutritionist, one of first things they ask is what do you eat regularly (to check nutrition, health).
