    Gary Null: Profile

    Time magazine called him “The New Mr. Natural.” My Generation magazine dubbed him one of the top-four health gurus in the United States. For over three decades, Gary Null has been one of the foremost advocates of alternative medicine and natural healing.

    An award-winning journalist and New York Times best-selling author, Dr. Null has over 70 books on nutrition, self-empowerment and public health issues, including his most recent, Power Aging. His syndicated public radio show, "Natural Living with Gary Null", earned eight Silver Microphone Awards and was the longest-running, continuously aired health program in America (27 years).

    Currently The Gary Null Show can be heard on the number one Internet talk radio show VoiceAmerica from 12 noon to 1 p.m.EST. Null also broadcasts on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays on WPFW (89.3 FM) from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m EST in Washington D.C. The Gary Null Show is on WWRL (1600 AM) from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in New York. In addition, he can be heard in Los Angeles on Something’s Happening with Roy of Hollywood on KPFK (90.7 FM) from 12 a.m. to 5:30 a.m. PST. Lastly, Dr. Null can be heard on Sunday evenings on the Health Radio Network in New York.

    The Gary Null Show is not a “chit-chat” show but, rather, an on-air health forum featuring knowledgeable guests and well-researched scientific information that is presented objectively and in layperson’s terms. The program’s combination of provocative interviews, controversial commentary, and listener call-ins motivate listeners to change their lives for the better.

    Gary Null holds a Ph.D. in human nutrition and public health science. He has been a consistent voice on how to live a longer, more vital life through work that embraces the body, mind and spirit. Gary believes that much of what our society accepts as inevitable markers of aging are actually manifestations of a preventable disease process. Gary’s philosophy has influenced countless Americans to achieve a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle.

    As the managing editor and lead investigator for the “Caveat Emptor” features of ABC Radio Network and WABC radio, Gary Null captured the attention of hundreds of thousands of people who saw that he was unafraid to address controversial issues involving public health and alternative health practices in this country. As a reporter, Gary conducted more than a hundred major investigations into issues such as AIDS, chronic fatigue, heart disease, diet and exercise, stress management, arthritis, vaccines, and allergies. Television programs such as 20/20 and 60 Minutes have featured his material.

    As a documentary filmmaker, Gary has achieved critical acclaim. He’s produced over 70 films and videos on health and nutrition topics, including the award-winning Age Is Only A Number; Overcoming Depression and Anxiety Disorders Naturally, for which he received a coveted Gold CINDY (Cinema In Industry) Award; Deconstructing The Myth of AIDS, winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary at both the New York and Los Angeles International Independent Film and Video Festivals; and Fatal Fallout, winner of both Best Director and Best Documentary awards at the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival.

    Additionally, Gary Null’s special programs, such as Kiss Your Fat Goodbye, Get Fit Now and Seven Steps to Perfect Health, are regularly featured during PBS fundraising drives, spurring record-setting viewer contributions whenever broadcast.

    Gary Null was the founder and director of the Health and Nutrition Certificate Program at Pratt Institute and at The School of Visual Arts. He was the founder of the National Health Resources Council and served as nutrition director at the Nutrition Institute of America. As an athlete, Gary has trained thousands of marathon runners and walkers through his Natural Living Walking and Running Club. He is a TAC Master Champion athlete and twice MAC Track and Field Masters Athlete of the Year.

    Gary Null has been featured in numerous publications, including The Daily News, Time, People, Fitness, Time Out, and Vegetarian Times. Many of Gary’s publications have been widely recognized as milestones in the health movement. Throughout the years, he has garnered much recognition for his dedication, advocacy and in-depth coverage of vital health issues, receiving the Truth in Journalism Award for Investigative Reporting and The Human Rights Award from the Citizens Commission on Human Rights.
