Wolf-Dieter Storl (born October 1, 1942) is a German-American cultural anthropologist, ethnobotanist and book author who promotes anthroposophy and esoterical ideas.[1]
Wolf-Dieter Storl was born on October 1, 1942, in Crimmitschau, Saxony, Germany.
He grew up in Germany. At the age of eleven, in 1951,[2] Storl immigrated to the United States with his parents and lived in rural Ohio until his studies. There, he became interested in nature, forests and plants.[2]
Storl is married to an American from Wyoming. They have a son and a daughter. The family lives on a remote farm in the western part of the Allgäu. The courtyard is a former knight's seat built in 1188 and hidden in the forest.[2]
Storl's support for curing Lyme disease with naturopathy, which he presents in his book Borreliose natürlich heilen (Cure Lyme disease naturally)–a disease Storl himself claims to suffer from–attracted some criticism.[3][4]
Storl's views on the climate crisis in an interview on the website KenFM is met with criticism.[5]
