Who’s Cooking?
Andrew Weil, M.D., is a world-renowned leader and pioneer in the field of integrative medicine, a healing-oriented approach to health care which encompasses body, mind, and spirit. Combining a Harvard education and a lifetime of practicing natural and preventive medicine, Dr. Weil is the founder and director of the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona. Dr. Weil is an internationally recognized expert for his views on leading a healthy lifestyle, his philosophy of healthy aging, and his critique of the future of medicine and health care.
“I have a longstanding interest in food and nutrition, love to cook, and turn people on to great recipes. As a physician, I adhere to the advice of Hippocrates: “Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food.” I started the WNC to share what I’ve learned about food and health with a wider audience.” – Andrew Weil, M.D.
Diana Weil is the daughter of Andrew Weil. She is a Certified Nutrition Specialist with a Master of Science in Nutrition and Integrative Health, Licensed and Certified Dietitian, Certified Integrative and Holistic Health Coach and a yoga instructor. Her approach to diet and nutrition is based on the theory that everyone has the innate ability to heal themselves and that food is medicine - an angle she grew up seeing developed by her father. Diana focuses on a whole-person approach to healing. She has a passion for healthy living, food that doesn’t just do good, but also that looks and tastes good.
“Health and food have always been at the heart of our family, shaping how we cook, eat, and care for one another. I created the WNC to celebrate our love for food and wellness, inspiring others to embrace a healthier, more fulfilling life.” – Diana Weil, C.N.S.
Who is the WNC written for?

Are you a parent navigating the ever-changing trends of what is “healthy” for your kids? This newsletter is for you! Get our educated take on food trends, utilize our family-friendly meal prep and swap suggestions, and get your kids cooking with you via our tips and ideas!
Are you single and looking for tips on cooking for one? Ditch the pre-made meals and embrace the creativity and joy of cooking. Look forward to recipes that can evolve into multiple meals with different variations; shopping, planning and prepping tips; food storage ideas; and more.

And Dr. Weil’s Anti-Inflammatory Food Pyramid has a heavy focus on produce, complex carbs and legumes. Whether you want to cut out meat entirely or simply want to cut back, our tips and recipe suggestions will have you covered.
What sets the Weil Nutrition Corner apart?
Our goal is to make the term “food as medicine” a mainstay in your home. In addition to the in-depth health and nutrition content, our takes on nutrition fads, and our “how-to’s” when it comes to meal planning, prepping, growing and cooking, you will receive a new recipe every week. Each recipe includes variations designed for singles, families and making it vegetarian. Our recipes are healthy and delicious, and utilize the foods, spices and preparation ideas that are the basis of the Anti-Inflammatory Diet!
