GreenMedInfo.com Mourns the Passing of a Giant in Natural Medicine, Dr. Andrew Saul

February 5, 1955 – February 3, 2024

It is with profound sorrow that GreenMedInfo.com acknowledges the passing of Dr. Andrew W. Saul, a pioneering force and beloved pillar in the field of orthomolecular and nutritional medicine. We join countless others touched by his life's work in grieving this immense loss while honoring his resounding legacy.

Throughout his exceptional 35-year career, Dr. Saul made seminal contributions to advancing the safe, evidence-based use of therapeutic nutrition. A prolific researcher, editor and writer, his literary output includes editing the esteemed textbook “The Orthomolecular Treatment of Chronic Disease” and the impactful “Vitamin Cure” book series.  He also created the wonderful resource Doctor Yourself. 

Dr. Saul was a courageous supporter of medical freedom and patient empowerment through nutritional education in the face of relentless opposition. In 2005, his testimony to the Canadian Parliament defending the efficacy of nutritional therapy demonstrated this unwavering commitment. This dedication culminated in the founding of the Orthomolecular Medicine News Service (OMNS), which under his leadership published over 135 resources furthering access to integrative modalities, and a regular contributor to the Greenmedinfo.com website and newsletter.

GreenMedInfo.com shares Dr. Saul’s mission of disseminating holistic healing knowledge to the public and professionals alike. We are forever grateful for his instrumental work elevating awareness of safer, natural alternatives that remain shunned by mainstream medicine despite burgeoning supportive evidence.  

While the orthomolecular community deeply feels his absence, Dr. Saul’s voluminous contributions, including his website DoctorYourself.com, endure as an invaluable cache of insights and inspiration for generations to come. We honor his courage to swim against the tide of medical dogma, driven by his compassion to relieve suffering through sustainable, cure-based methods.

Followers are encouraged to view Dr. Saul’s past video interviews on the GreenMedInfo website, such as his August 2021 discussion on vitamin C and COVID-19, to appreciate his extensive wisdom on nutritional therapies.1

Dr. Saul often noted that “we need more healers and fewer salesmen.” May we rise to fill this void by embracing his shining example. With open arms and hearts, we bid him safe passage. The teaching torch is passed, and his light will continue illuminating the nutritional healing path for humanity. With gratitude, Dr. Saul - your service and wisdom are forever medicine.
