He is absolutely right about consciousness: everything is conscious! We are literally a part of everything and everything is a part of us. We must learn to be kind and accepting and respectful of the planet.

Recap by Tammy AI
Who titled this podcast? There is very little diet advise compared to other information. I was unable to finish the podcast to see if there were any gems in the end. He glorified his own experiences with mind altering drugs which are a gamble at best and not associated at all with the indicated topic.
The world is a better place because Andrew Weil is in it! Thank you for the work that you do and sharing vital health (LIFE!) information to us. Your tremendous impact is felt here in Asia. Bless your heart! 🙏🙏🙏💕 Mr. Shetty, thank you, this interview was a very good decision, keep it coming!
I have so much respect and admiration for people who can continually be cut off or interrupted during a conversation and show no signs of irritation. Bravo
I agree with these two gentlemen. A tea culture in USA would be wonderful. I drank tea all of my life and I feel this is the reason that I am so healthy. Of course I never took drugs, engaged in Healthy eating, exercising and lots of rest combined with daily tea socials has kept me grounded all my life. Tea is amazing!
I traveled to Australia snorkeled at a place called Exmouth North of Perth, the fragility of our planet was so profound ❤ my emotion it changed my life no psychedelics needed! It was a truly amazing experience!
I am so glad to see an up-and-coming, rising star of this particular genre giving props to Dr. Weil. Dr. Weil is responsible for educating my generation (brought up on pop-tarts for breakfast, smoking being permissible in restaurants, and watching the 6 o'clock news while eating KFC or grilled hot dogs for dinner) on all things mind-body-spirit. I attribute my health journey kicking off with 8 Weeks to Optimum Health and I can still recall the day I saw it on the table in a bookstore in the mall and purchased it. It changed my life.Dr. Weil is one of the greatest thought leaders of my generation.
@@marshawalker5273 I've wondered about that, too. However, he's always been the same body type, from what I can tell. Just like some people are 'skinny-fat' I think some can be 'healthy-fat' too. I think of Oprah when I think of this category. She seems to have adopted a healthy lifestyle but her genetic predisposition seems to allow her to carry more weight but she has indicated when she shares her health journey with us that all her HRV/cholesterol/BP/bone density markers are on point.
@@gardenbun I agree. Weight seems to stick to some and not to others, perhaps from childhood influences and/ or genetic factors. In addition, Dr. Weil has a heavy bone structure, which makes him appear stockier. But it doesn’t change his incredible depth and breadth of knowledge one bit! ❤
Dr Weil was about 30 years a head of all the others. He helped me focus on a good diet in the early 80s. Finally the rest of the world is catching up to him.
Dr. Weil is someone who has really contributed to teaching natural health for as long as I can remember he and Dr. Mercola made me take interest in my health naturally and it pays. Happy to see him here.
Visualisation therapy is extremely powerful. I have used this technique while meditating to heal myself during a very difficult time in my life. It's unfortunate that many people don't believe in the power of this. Great video Jay! ❤❤❤
@@FromPeloToYourHeartit sounds like "thinking positive about being healthier physically and mentally" it honestly does make sense....that supposed to help decrease your blood pressure as well.
Thank you for having Dr. Weil on your podcast, he is simply the best. One day he will be revered and celebrated (in due time all will be revealed & understood) like so many that came before him. Ignaz Semmelweis was a physician and scientist who figured out that doctors could decrease the number of deaths, infections just by washing their hands. His simple idea could have saved countless lives, but he was largely ignored and laughed at. Dr. Weil is a genius, I wish all doctors were trained in naturopathic medicine. What a wonderful and healthy world it would be.
I shared the same feeling of inter-connectedness Dr. Andrew described, from doing half doses of mescaline, psilocybin, and peyote in my college years in the Pacific Northwest. We picked psilocybin mushrooms at dawn, which grew in ‘fairy rings’ in areas with rich soil, like cow pastures. We’d make tea and walk for hours in the forest, feeling awe and connection with all of nature. I’m a lightweight so instinctively took less than others, which worked well for me. The experiences opened my mind and spurred creativity, set me on a lifelong path, and formed a core spirituality of reverence for nature and the Universal Energy. I became a professional artist, animal advocate, Master Gardener, and vegetarian/ vegan/ pescatarian for over 50 years. I could go on about my incredible experiences! I haven’t felt a need to use these substances anymore, as I learned what they had to teach me, which was transformative!
Thank you for sharing what must be a wonderful life. I too have found solace in nature, which guides my art. I just started looking into personal use of psilocybin. ❤ Love living in the rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.
Yes, I agree. Great information, thank you both. Dr. Wells looks somewhat overweight.. with a large belly something I struggle with. ..gas and bloating.
Dr. Weil has been around for a long long time and had a TRUE WEALTH of knowledge in many areas of the spectrum. Thank you both for a WONDERFUL interview. 🙏💜👼
I have to agree with some of the commenters on here. I've always enjoyed listening to Dr. Weil for many years now, but it is hard to take nutritional advice from someone who is clearly overweight. His mind, however, is obviously intact and he makes so much sense. You just have to overlook his physical appearance.
I highly recommend reading his book, Spontaneous Healing. We exchanged letters on the use of a certain wild plant back in the day before he started his Wellness newsletter. So thoughtful. ❤
When i was a young man, i used to ingest psychedelics including peyote and i actual was able to stop headaches and pain. I also experienced clarity. However my friends at the time didn’t believe me. Lol. Life. I was born in the year 1958 and i absolutely like listening to most of your pods. Thank you Mr. Shetty.
He’s in his 80s and men s life span is 74. Also , being thin isn’t correlated with longer life. I think because he’s earthy looking and built stocky, he appears less lean.
This blew my mind. Stupidity and ignorance ruled our families for many years. Our ancestors knew pretty well that every remedy and solution was found in nature.
Thank you for this most enjoyable and educational presentation; I feel that our nation and the world need more of these discussions that discuss the options available for healing ourselves.
Great show with Dr Weil. I’ve collared him since the 80’s. A great , heart and soul. He is correct about the importance of psychedelics use in healing.
I'm so happy to have "accidently" found you with DR Weil. Recently, I have arthritis in my knee so that I sometimes need a cane. At 76, I am very healthy and active, so this is very upsetting. I have been thinking about Dr. Weil's guidance for weeks. Thank you. 😊
Mahalo for having my long time hero, Dr Andrew Weil on your show! Your conversation with him validated you to me. I have followed him since the 70’s but never knew about YOU. Now I feel confident in subscribing to your channel. Keep up the good work💕🤙🏼
Wow!!! This was soooo interesting and I learned so much!! You two were both so wonderful!! Dr. Weil....I have followed you for years and you are my go-to when I have questions. Thank you both so much! Look forward to the next podcast with both of you!!
I've learned not to focus on the few largely publicised superfoods and instead settle for as much variety as possible with only two rules: eat more of raw foods and less of cooked/processed and fast every now and then. Spending time alone from time to time is good. I've adopted gardening as a hobby/passion as this can get you grounded, exercised and exposed to fresh air/sunshine all at the same time as well as producing the fresh food.
Me too! I just love his books. I still have 2 of them. I trust him more than anyone about nutrition. I just love broccoli! I don't like "mushy" vegetables. I love green tea!( But I still mess up and eat some bad stuff.) I shall try the turmeric tea if I can get some. I grew up on tea! I grew up on a farm with fresh vegetables. The women on my Mom's side lived long lives. They ate good food, exercised, and went to church. Grandma: 92, Great Aunt Jenny:100, Great Aunt Mattie: 106, Mom: now 88 and still going strong despite a brain tumor. THANK YOU! DR WEIL!!!! Algae oil sounds gross, however, LOL.
Dr. Andrew, it's super exciting to "meet" someone that shared life with the OG's Ram Dass, Albus Huxley, and Alan Watts. Brilliant minds and hearts continue to live through your words and work. 🙏💕🥂
Careful with Matcha - it often is full of heavy metals. I love it but it has to be tested in a laboratory. My favorite way of drinking matcha is: 1 Teaspoon of Matcha powder, 4-5 dates (soaked in water for several hours), almond milk or cashew milk, Vanilla extract --> put it in a blender and pour it through a strainer. Then serve it with ice cubes. Best matcha latte ever
Thank you for interviewing Dr. Weil. A friend turned me on to him in the early, 90s and enjoy his knowledge and as I am listening to him on the psychedelic topic my heart somewhat sadden when he said the only hope for man is taking a substance which has the potential to be harmful. Without sounding preachy, who likes that) the salvation through Jesus's blood can save mankind and doesn't wear off....psychedelics is a counterfeit. I can,only say this through experience. The interview was informative and fantastic. Your questions were on point. Thank you!
How wonderful to hear him speak of his awareness of every objects' consciousness as a result of taking psychedelics. That was my experience as well. It can be an incredible deep dive and mind opening connection to the world around us and the knowledge that we are all connected, particularly to nature.
Thank you Dr Weil! You’re the first person I’ve heard speak to the relationship between MDMA and mescaline, other than myself. When I was a nurse, in the university library I happened upon the chemical structure of MDMA in a book which said the chemical structure was the same basically as mescaline. Thank you for that confirmation finally, it’s taken 20 years to have that confirmed 😁❤️😘
Dudes just a pro drug hippy with completely unfounded and down right dangerous beliefs on psychedelics. Yes they do have very profound negative effects and chronic marijuana use is proven to have a degenerative affect on the brain. I dabbled in them, my friend dabbled in them a bit more and was the only person in his family to develop schizophrenia
It is delightful to listen to this conversation, so generous and helpful. On the other hand, I can't help wondering why Dr. Weil seems to struggle himself with severe inflammation issues :( I don't understand. Of course, the huge work he has done on education and research to build a healthier society is what matters.
Love this episode! I have loved Dr. Weil for many years and have several of his many books. I hope you have another episode together and perhaps go a bit deeper into aging. Will for sure be ordering some matcha! Thank you!!!
I’m a huge believer in plant medicine and psychedelics it has helped me release so much pain and ancestral energy I also believe it’s a 1000 therapy sessions in one night 🙏❤️
Discussions like this make me question just what the US FDA is doing. Too many foods - natural and processed - in the US are so destructive to the human body. Why does the FDA permit these negative foods on the market?
True, also did u know pet foods have little to no regulations on ingredients, so if u have pets, buy the higher priced, higher quality pet foods like Purina One and Hills science diet. Spread the word. Pet foods in the lower price range are unhealthy. I work at a vet.
Thank you both Jay and Dr. Weil! I totally resonated with everything. I’ve also been interested in the mind, body, spiritual connection since a child. This was stellar!! 🙏🏼💜
I followed him back in the day and still have some of his books 📚, that I run across. I’m glad to see him still around and pretty much look the same! My main three oils are organic extra virgin olive oil, organic coconut oil and MTC oil and Avocado 🥑 oil all cold pressed. I do real butter and ghee too. 😊👍🏽😊👍🏽😊
Thank you, Jay. Riveting discussion as well as wonderful to see and hear the man, Dr. Andrew Weil speak and freely share tons. Upon tons of unprecidented wisdom and experience. I'm a big fan since early 2000s.
Flaxseed oil is suuuuper healthy (but no heating please) and has plenty of Omega-3. Thank you so much for your very, very interesting Video and the interview. So precious. And I love your beautiful smile dear Jay!
@@judithschneider6202 it should be “turkey tail” mushrooms. You can buy the capsules in health food stores or online if you Google “mushroom supplements.” They are one of the more popular medicinal mushrooms. ❤️
Wow. Thank you for this podcast episode Jay and Andrew. I had to keep pausing it and writing down quotes from this as I resonated so hard with some parts! Particularly about the distinction between spirituality and religion and the fact that science needs to accept that the non physical world can directly affect the physical. I have innately known this and consciously cultivated my inner non physical world for years now. It baffles me how people can NOT believe in something 'other' or non physical that has an influence on our world, much more than what is already known by science today. Thank you thank you for the wisdom and the validation and the brilliance that is this channel x
You just answered my question Dr Weil. I have included broccoli and chicken just for now and i can see how the bloating is going down.i steam it just a short time where it is still crunchy. I was just thinking about this and you answered my question. Thank you.
I’ve followed Dr. Weil now for about 30 years. I appreciate a lot of what he says. I feel his casual response to drug use to be a bit alarming. There are some really toxic drugs out there that cannot be used responsibly. Crack cocaine, meth, heroin to name a few. This is coming from a place of being a Holistic Nutrition Educator who also worked with those with active addictions, in recovery, and also grew up around addicts. I think Weil could’ve been more responsible with his comments. Yes, broccoli is a super vegetable but it’s also not good for people with low iodine or those with thyroid problems. Weil gives great information, but he also needs to add in some disclaimers with his comments. Just my thoughts.
Dr. Weil is helping us. I hope that he soon will be able to help himself. Once read..learn why broccoli is good for you and than learn a recipy that will do it for you. Quantum Idea! Started with a cheese sauce and now oliveoil with good salt and lemonjuice.
Glad you are sharing this important information. Dr. Weil looks like he could lose the extra fat. I stopped going to my primary who was extremely overweight because he wasn't practicing what he was preaching.
thank you some interesting findings from the past helpful to plan now for the days to come . yes we dring gree tea with lemon and cloves and tomeritc it has helped our heath and nerve damage .thanks .
Being slim is not a synonym of being healthy. He has never stressed on weight issue in his teachings, and this is the most amazing thing!! You may be chubby and still age healthily. He is a living proof of it. Your comment makes me think that you are a bitter person - and it´s not an emotion that will help you age healthily... I guess the latter is what you are looking for in here.
Appreciative of your podcast to start & end my day so purposefully & peacefully. So much to learn from all individuals you have on your podcast Jay! Keep up the good work 🎉❤
May The Good LORD God Almighty deliver and give wisdom to people to avoid drug abuse and abuse of self and others, and His creation.... No matter how attractive it is presented, and attempt to Legalize, Market and destroy dignity of humanity.
@@scooterthekidd can you explain a bit about Joe D's approach to dealing with RA? I've only heard him speaking about injuries. Assuming he addresses pain related to RA?
@@scooterthekidd A couple of years ago I read a great little book on natural healing called ‘My Physician, Myself’, written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention. It’s available on Amazon and well worth the read. You might also look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102.
Good on you Dr. Weil for being real about cannabis.... many benefits... and far better than the ubiquitous, legal, and highly promoted alcohol in our society . Thank you for your real a nd common sense information. Looking forward to your new book.
Interesting about the allergies being unlearned. I'm sure psychology can play a part in making the reaction worse. I have had allergic reactions without even thinking about them, or unaware I was allergic to the substance. Because of this I don't think allergies are purely psychological but I will try to relax through my next allergic reaction and see how much that helps.
I had the same reaction to the ingested cannabis oil for pain as recommended by my physician, Most awful feeling I had ever experienced and quite scary. NEVER AGAIN. Now use turmeric and other anti-inflammatory herbs to control arthritic pain that helps a lot better. I was insightful to hear that you experienced the same. Thank you for you knowledge ❤
JAY it just came to me! Please have Sadhguru on your podcast!! It would be so soulful deep & spiritual with your guys hearts & minds!! P.S. you’re saving lives & mentalities out here! Love you & your wifey! K bye! ❤
Great to hear among other things the effect of the Mind on the body I'm a Mind/Body Connection speaker and I keep myself healthy and happy with this. In another podcast you enquired about Trance Channeling and I would like to recommend Jane Roberts book called Seth Speaks and my other favourite is Debbie Shapiro Your Body Speaks Your Mind. It's great to have Indian role models growing up in the 70 I had only access to Indian Gurus which saw me right I'm not complaining. It's great listening to your podcast 👌
I saw Dr Weil at a conference in Tucson many years ago and was very influenced to become more health conscious. One thing that really makes me angry is how expensive health items are. I used to consume ground hemp powder in organic juice and hemp oil daily. I can no longer afford to do this as I can barely afford to feed my family. Looking at the cost of matcha is the same. Very expensive. I guess vibrant health is mainly for those that can afford it.
Transformation to consciousness is very interesting... Similar to an awakening. A divine experience to bringing you closer to the spirit /energy of the universe.. instead of everyone walking from their flesh they move by their spirit.. intentionally good and serving to create all things better. Ive enjoyed this discussion while doing dishes.
i first got turned on to andrew weil back in college in the late 90s. this man is the real deal. he's brilliant

I'm so happy to have "accidently" found you with DR Weil. Recently, I have arthritis in my knee so that I sometimes need a cane. At 76, I am very healthy and active, so this is very upsetting. I have been thinking about Dr. Weil's guidance for weeks. Thank you. 😊
P.S. someone said Dr. Weil was "up and coming." I have been following him since the mid 80s. I'm glad he is now almost mainstream.
Mahalo for having my long time hero, Dr Andrew Weil on your show! Your conversation with him validated you to me. I have followed him since the 70’s but never knew about YOU. Now I feel confident in subscribing to your channel. Keep up the good work💕🤙🏼
Top of the morning JAY. Optimum and wellness should be done in small bites.
Wellness starts with the mind body and soul connecting.
Thank you for having Dr. Weil, Jay!!! Amazing podcast discussion.
Dr weil, I have read your books and it changed my life.
It is hard to believe your are 80 years old. Thank you and God bless
Wow!!! This was soooo interesting and I learned so much!! You two were both so wonderful!! Dr. Weil....I have followed you for years and you are my go-to when I have questions. Thank you both so much! Look forward to the next podcast with both of you!!
I've learned not to focus on the few largely publicised superfoods and instead settle for as much variety as possible with only two rules: eat more of raw foods and less of cooked/processed and fast every now and then. Spending time alone from time to time is good. I've adopted gardening as a hobby/passion as this can get you grounded, exercised and exposed to fresh air/sunshine all at the same time as well as producing the fresh food.
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food! (....or something like that!!!!)
Very happy and reassuring to see Dr. Weil!! I purchased his book 20+ years ago and it's one of a handful of physical books I still read and refer to.
Me too...I purchased "spontaneous healing" and he's still maintained same talk all through,glad to see him today.
@@justinamusyoka4986Thanks! I didn’t know about it, and I need to heal!
Me too! I just love his books. I still have 2 of them. I trust him more than anyone about nutrition. I just love broccoli! I don't like "mushy" vegetables. I love green tea!( But I still mess up and eat some bad stuff.) I shall try the turmeric tea if I can get some. I grew up on tea! I grew up on a farm with fresh vegetables. The women on my Mom's side lived long lives. They ate good food, exercised, and went to church. Grandma: 92, Great Aunt Jenny:100, Great Aunt Mattie: 106, Mom: now 88 and still going strong despite a brain tumor. THANK YOU! DR WEIL!!!! Algae oil sounds gross, however, LOL.
This Doctor is amazing .He knows his stuff.Thank you and God Bless.❤️💕🙏🏾🌹
Dr. Andrew, it's super exciting to "meet" someone that shared life with the OG's Ram Dass, Albus Huxley, and Alan Watts. Brilliant minds and hearts continue to live through your words and work.
🙏💕🥂
Great conversation. Have followed Dr. Wiel for years.. still working to heal myself in many ways
I have followed Dr. Weil for a long time and believe in the path he is on.
Such an incredibly helpful conversation. Thank you for holding space for this topic 💕🙌🏿
Careful with Matcha - it often is full of heavy metals. I love it but it has to be tested in a laboratory. My favorite way of drinking matcha is: 1 Teaspoon of Matcha powder, 4-5 dates (soaked in water for several hours), almond milk or cashew milk, Vanilla extract --> put it in a blender and pour it through a strainer. Then serve it with ice cubes. Best matcha latte ever
Thank you for interviewing Dr. Weil. A friend turned me on to him in the early, 90s and enjoy his knowledge and as I am listening to him on the psychedelic topic my heart somewhat sadden when he said the only hope for man is taking a substance which has the potential to be harmful. Without sounding preachy, who likes that) the salvation through Jesus's blood can save mankind and doesn't wear off....psychedelics is a counterfeit.
I can,only say this through experience.
The interview was informative and fantastic. Your questions were on point.
Thank you!
How wonderful to hear him speak of his awareness of every objects' consciousness as a result of taking psychedelics. That was my experience as well. It can be an incredible deep dive and mind opening connection to the world around us and the knowledge that we are all connected, particularly to nature.
Thank you Dr Weil! You’re the first person I’ve heard speak to the relationship between MDMA and mescaline, other than myself. When I was a nurse, in the university library I happened upon the chemical structure of MDMA in a book which said the chemical structure was the same basically as mescaline. Thank you for that confirmation finally, it’s taken 20 years to have that confirmed 😁❤️😘
Dudes just a pro drug hippy with completely unfounded and down right dangerous beliefs on psychedelics. Yes they do have very profound negative effects and chronic marijuana use is proven to have a degenerative affect on the brain. I dabbled in them, my friend dabbled in them a bit more and was the only person in his family to develop schizophrenia
If you’re in a hurry with green tea, can you just tear of the bag and pour a little out and eat?
It is delightful to listen to this conversation, so generous and helpful. On the other hand, I can't help wondering why Dr. Weil seems to struggle himself with severe inflammation issues :( I don't understand. Of course, the huge work he has done on education and research to build a healthier society is what matters.
Doctors don’t know everything. They help where they can by research but their help comes from God. Prayer is needed here.
And a bit over ideal weight.
Thank you for the conversation
He makes me happy because he reminds me of Santa ❤ Also, I love Matcha and gifts under the tree. 😘
Love this episode! I have loved Dr. Weil for many years and have several of his many books. I hope you have another episode together and perhaps go a bit deeper into aging. Will for sure be ordering some matcha! Thank you!!!
I’m a huge believer in plant medicine and psychedelics it has helped me release so much pain and ancestral energy I also believe it’s a 1000 therapy sessions in one night 🙏❤️
Dr Andrew is what so many more Docs should be .
Discussions like this make me question just what the US FDA is doing. Too many foods - natural and processed - in the US are so destructive to the human body. Why does the FDA permit these negative foods on the market?
Great thought !!!
True, also did u know pet foods have little to no regulations on ingredients, so if u have pets, buy the higher priced, higher quality pet foods like Purina One and Hills science diet. Spread the word. Pet foods in the lower price range are unhealthy. I work at a vet.
They are fucking up the counties
💰 🤑 💸 💲 💶 💵 I believe GMO foods are baned in Europe. Are we being the experimental 🐀 for the world 🌎 ???? 🤔
@@edithruiz1947 Same for India.
Thank you both Jay and Dr. Weil! I totally resonated with everything. I’ve also been interested in the mind, body, spiritual connection since a child. This was stellar!! 🙏🏼💜
Thank you for having Dr. Weil, Jay!!! Amazing podcast discussion.. Thank you for having Dr. Weil, Jay!!! Amazing podcast discussion..
I love Dr. Andrew Weil! Would love to be in his presence. Thank you. ❤
FABULOUS interview!!! So so relevant! And so timely!
Thank you for the discount on matcha ❤️🙏🏼❤️
I followed him back in the day and still have some of his books 📚, that I run across. I’m glad to see him still around and pretty much look the same! My main three oils are organic extra virgin olive oil, organic coconut oil and MTC oil and Avocado 🥑 oil all cold pressed. I do real butter and ghee too. 😊👍🏽😊👍🏽😊
Thank you, Jay. Riveting discussion as well as wonderful to see and hear the man, Dr. Andrew Weil speak and freely share tons. Upon tons of unprecidented wisdom and experience. I'm a big fan since early 2000s.
Flaxseed oil is suuuuper healthy (but no heating please) and has plenty of Omega-3. Thank you so much for your very, very interesting Video and the interview. So precious. And I love your beautiful smile dear Jay!
Which brand is do you use
I know you are an amazing doc. However, in that capacity, your reach is short. Your true "SUPER POWER" is teacher. From my soul, I thank you
Great to see an interview with person who promotes over 30 years real food and intermittent fasting before it was so popular...
As a preoperative nurse, we were always taught to screen for recent LSD use as this was believed to put operative risk for strokes.
Top 20 cancer fighting foods:
1. Turmeric,
2. Bone Broth,
3. Grapes,
4. Green Tea,
5. Chilli peppers,
6. Salmon cheviche,
7. Lemon,
8. Broccoli sprouts,
9. Sauerkraut,
10. Pomegranate,
11. Fig,
12. Watergrass,
13. Chaga,
14. Onion sprouts,
15. Turkey tail mushrooms,
16. Flax seeds,
17. Green mango,
18. Sage,
19. Aronia berry,
20. Cinnamon
and garlic should be on this list as well. (21)
totally disagree about using bones broth unless the animal receieved absolutely no medicines during its life which is unlikely.
Where do you find turkey mushrooms?
@@judithschneider6202 it should be “turkey tail” mushrooms. You can buy the capsules in health food stores or online if you Google “mushroom supplements.” They are one of the more popular medicinal mushrooms. ❤️
Affect vitamin B12 or B12 complex. I use both. Great vitamins for more than just cancer fighting a abilities . Longevity also
Wow. Thank you for this podcast episode Jay and Andrew. I had to keep pausing it and writing down quotes from this as I resonated so hard with some parts! Particularly about the distinction between spirituality and religion and the fact that science needs to accept that the non physical world can directly affect the physical. I have innately known this and consciously cultivated my inner non physical world for years now. It baffles me how people can NOT believe in something 'other' or non physical that has an influence on our world, much more than what is already known by science today.
Thank you thank you for the wisdom and the validation and the brilliance that is this channel x
Thanks for the interview with Dr. Weil. It was very informative.
You just answered my question Dr Weil. I have included broccoli and chicken just for now and i can see how the bloating is going down.i steam it just a short time where it is still crunchy. I was just thinking about this and you answered my question. Thank you.
I’ve followed Dr. Weil now for about 30 years. I appreciate a lot of what he says. I feel his casual response to drug use to be a bit alarming. There are some really toxic drugs out there that cannot be used responsibly. Crack cocaine, meth, heroin to name a few. This is coming from a place of being a Holistic Nutrition Educator who also worked with those with active addictions, in recovery, and also grew up around addicts. I think Weil could’ve been more responsible with his comments.
Yes, broccoli is a super vegetable but it’s also not good for people with low iodine or those with thyroid problems.
Weil gives great information, but he also needs to add in some disclaimers with his comments. Just my thoughts.
@GrapeJelly and no cooked its not good...?
Weil wasn't promoting crack or heroin, he was speaking about psychedelics, which in many instances help people to give up their various addictions.
@deez3063Every drug has potential for good and bad. Every drug. Has the potential.
Dr. Weil is helping us. I hope that he soon will be able to help himself. Once read..learn why broccoli is good for you and than learn a recipy that will do it for you. Quantum Idea! Started with a cheese sauce and now oliveoil with good salt and lemonjuice.
Jay it is great to see you opening up more about your own personal experiences and views it makes for a much greater interview !
Love Dr Weil advice. I would like to know what type of foods and exercises he personally uses in his next interview.
The first 11 minutes sumerizes the most important suggestions, but the entire interview is worth watching.
Glad you are sharing this important information. Dr. Weil looks like he could lose the extra fat. I stopped going to my primary who was extremely overweight because he wasn't practicing what he was preaching.
My same thoughts 🧐
thank you some interesting findings from the past helpful to plan now for the days to come . yes we dring gree tea with lemon and cloves and tomeritc it has helped our heath and nerve damage .thanks .
Weight has nothing to do with being healthy or not.
He's 80 years old and looks pretty healthy and strong.
Being slim is not a synonym of being healthy. He has never stressed on weight issue in his teachings, and this is the most amazing thing!! You may be chubby and still age healthily. He is a living proof of it. Your comment makes me think that you are a bitter person - and it´s not an emotion that will help you age healthily... I guess the latter is what you are looking for in here.
Love old friend in 70s Any Weil and this discussion was terrific. Thank you.
Appreciative of your podcast to start & end my day so purposefully & peacefully. So much to learn from all individuals you have on your podcast Jay! Keep up the good work 🎉❤
❤🎉😂 God bless you Jay and dr. Andrew 🍀❤️
May The Good LORD God Almighty deliver and give wisdom to people to avoid drug abuse and abuse of self and others, and His creation.... No matter how attractive it is presented, and attempt to Legalize, Market and destroy dignity of humanity.
definitely needed this! i am 23 and diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. i am always looking for ways to help my body
Look into Joe Dispenza ❤
@@scooterthekidd can you explain a bit about Joe D's approach to dealing with RA? I've only heard him speaking about injuries. Assuming he addresses pain related to RA?
horsetail herb, BORAX, msm, dmso, olive leaf, oregano oil, diatomaceous earth, vitamin C, niacinamide, earth CLINIC may all help.
@@scooterthekidd A couple of years ago I read a great little book on natural healing called ‘My Physician, Myself’, written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention. It’s available on Amazon and well worth the read. You might also look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102.
Dr. Brooke Goldener
Extremely interesting and informative interview with Dr. Weil. I have always respected Dr. Weill's advice for many years. Thank you.
Good on you Dr. Weil for being real about cannabis.... many benefits... and far better than the ubiquitous, legal, and highly promoted alcohol in our society . Thank you for your real a nd common sense information. Looking forward to your new book.
I WAS GREAT TO HEAR FROM DR WEIL ,
Always got a lot out of what he says .
Interesting about the allergies being unlearned. I'm sure psychology can play a part in making the reaction worse. I have had allergic reactions without even thinking about them, or unaware I was allergic to the substance. Because of this I don't think allergies are purely psychological but I will try to relax through my next allergic reaction and see how much that helps.
I had the same reaction to the ingested cannabis oil for pain as recommended by my physician, Most awful feeling I had ever experienced and quite scary. NEVER AGAIN. Now use turmeric and other anti-inflammatory herbs to control arthritic pain that helps a lot better. I was insightful to hear that you experienced the same. Thank you for you knowledge ❤
JAY it just came to me! Please have Sadhguru on your podcast!! It would be so soulful deep & spiritual with your guys hearts & minds!!
P.S. you’re saving lives & mentalities out here! Love you & your wifey! K bye! ❤
Love Dr. Weil! I am so excited to see him on your podcast!
Great to hear among other things the effect of the Mind on the body I'm a Mind/Body Connection speaker and I keep myself healthy and happy with this. In another podcast you enquired about Trance Channeling and I would like to recommend Jane Roberts book called Seth Speaks and my other favourite is Debbie Shapiro Your Body Speaks Your Mind.
It's great to have Indian role models growing up in the 70 I had only access to Indian Gurus which saw me right I'm not complaining. It's great listening to your podcast 👌
This guy is way ahead of his time talking about frog medicine ayahuasca and iboga. Its the way forward in holistic medicine💯
I saw Dr Weil at a conference in Tucson many years ago and was very influenced to become more health conscious. One thing that really makes me angry is how expensive health items are. I used to consume ground hemp powder in organic juice and hemp oil daily. I can no longer afford to do this as I can barely afford to feed my family. Looking at the cost of matcha is the same. Very expensive. I guess vibrant health is mainly for those that can afford it.
The cost of supplements is even higher than previously. This includes health teas etc.
Transformation to consciousness is very interesting... Similar to an awakening. A divine experience to bringing you closer to the spirit /energy of the universe.. instead of everyone walking from their flesh they move by their spirit.. intentionally good and serving to create all things better.
Ive enjoyed this discussion while doing dishes.
