Synopsis
Can the body heal itself? Dr. Weil says it can, and in SPONTANEOUS HEALING he offers practical advice on wellness along with anecdotes of patients who have healed after pursuing alternative medical approaches. Weil presents an overview of the body's healing system and describes what promotes or inhibits its functioning. He offers a specific 8-week plan for boosting the body's immune system, and addresses the very serious issue of what to do when one gets sick. Weil is one of the great explainers, and in plain language he addresses the questions like: What do I need to know about diet? Or about fat? Or protein? Why is garlic supposedly good for us? And he emphasizes the mental and spiritual connection to health. The reader comes away from Weil better informed and better equipped to make small but key adjustments in everyday habits in order to live healthier and longer.

Publisher's Note
"Memorable...Dr. Weil makes his case carefully and clearly."--The New York Times Book Review#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER"This book is destined to become a classic."--Joan Borysenko, author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind. Drawing on fascinating case histories from his own practice as well as medical techniques he has observed in his travels around the world, Dr. Weil shows how the mechanisms of self-diagnosis and self-regeneration have worked to resolve life-threatening diseases, severe trauma, and chronic pain. But spontaneous healing is also the essential element in the maintenance of our basic daily health. The book outlines an eight-week program that each of us can use to alter our diet, avoid environmental toxins, and reduce stress in order to enhance our innate healing powers.The best medicine does not merely combat germs or suppress symptoms, but rather works hand in hand with the body's natural defenses to manage illness. Building on this fundamental truth and tapping into the intricate interaction of mind and body, Dr. Weil arrives at a major new synthesis of conventional and alternative medical treatments. At once practical and inspirational, Spontaneous Healing gives each one of us the power and the wisdom to draw on the sources of health we hold within.
A passionate and convincing book about the need to incporporate alternative medicine into curren medical practices, Spontaneous Healing decribes a "healing system" that makes use of components of recognized systems of the body, including the immune, nervous, endocrine, and circulatory, to reveal how the body can heal itself and how those who are inflicted can enhance that healing.

Industry reviews
"In his latest book, 'Spontaneous Healing', Andrew Weil, a Harvard-trained physician and a botanist with a longstanding interest in medicinal plants, points out that Western physicians are often guilty (inadvertently or otherwise) of medical hexing simply by telling the patient what they know of the natural history of a disease and its prognosis."
New York Times Book Review - Abraham Verghese (05/28/1995)

"It is destined to become a classic in a new, more natural approach to medicine."
Joan Borysenko 

"'Spontaneous Healing' is the best single source for people seeking a sound and practical guide to personal healing."
Michael Lerner 

"In 'Spontaneous Healing', Dr. Andrew Weil writes clearly, wisely, brilliantly about our inborn healing abilities. This book may change your life."
Dean Ornish
