Osha interviews Integrative Medicine Pioneer, Elson Haas, M.D. on staying healthy with New Medicine. Founder and Director of the Preventive Medical Center of Marin (PMCM), it’s one of the leading Integrative Medical Centers in the country. PMCM was voted Best Holistic Health Center by Pacific Sun magazine readers in 2017 and 2018.
A pioneer in the field of medicine, Dr. Haas is considered to be “one of the “Fathers of Integrative Medicine.” A nationally recognized authority on health and wellness topics to both professionals and to the general public, he is the author of eleven health books (for adults, children and families), and has traveled the world serving under-served communities.
Dr. Haas’ seminal first book, Staying Healthy with the Seasons (1981) was one of the first books to integrate ancient Eastern healing traditions with modern Western medical practices and is still as timely as ever. Andrew Weil, MD, calls the book, “One of the classics in the field of Integrative Medicine.” Dr. Haas is a medical doctor who knew at the beginning of his medical career that nutrition is key and that we need to use all methods available, Western, Eastern and alternative rather than pop pills or surgically deal with all issues.
In addition to Staying Healthy with the Seasons, Dr. Haas has written Staying Healthy with Nutrition (a college course book), The Detox Diet, and Ultimate Immunity and False Fat Diet. His most recent is Staying Healthy with NEW Medicine.
Dr. Haas explains the important role that food , habits and attitudes play in regaining health.
