NATURAL HEALTH, NATURAL MEDICINE The Complete Guide to Wellness and Self-Care for Optimum Health

Jesse Boggs’s subdued narrating personality is a steady presence in this production of Dr. Weil’s encyclopedic guide. It’s an appealing performance; Boggs’s handsome voice is pleasing, and his expert phrasing makes this material impossible to misunderstand even when the writing is weighed down with the author’s professorial distance or the large amount of information. But it’s the practicality of this information and the breadth of Weil’s scholarship that make this resource so valuable. In addition to lifestyle and eating suggestions to optimize health, he offers commonsense advice on how to approach many specific ailments with preventives and treatments. Weil’s diligence and personal example motivate people to take informed responsibility for their health. This motivation and the clarity of his recommendations make this an exceptionally empowering audio. T.W. © AudioFile 2012, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2012]
