    Thank you Doc McDougall for your lectures. One such lecture in Oct 2021 caught my attention and I turned vegan from vegetarian
    Luckily I was already having a rice based diet as I am South Indian.
    Here in today's India everyone thinks rice means excess sugar and diabetics are scared to eat it
    They would rather have chapati ( wheat based) bread.
    And all think I am lactose intolerant after I stopped dairy. Little do they know that all humans are not meant to take another animal's milk.
    Doctors, scientists, highly intelligent people al think a starchbased vegan diet with less oil and salt is unhealthy
    But I prove them wrong when I run long distances and overtake many a young man along the way
    I am a 66 year old lady and pianist and tennis coach.
    What a light feeling I have when I exercise!

    I love listening to your recommendation dr McDougall,
    5 years ago I was diagnosed with chronic colitis, had been suffering for about 2 years, it was a really miserable time, I did not want to go on medication for the rest of my life, I found a great holistic dr, 1st visit he diagnosed me with parasites and also I was allergic to a lot of foods , treated me with holistic medicine, within 3 months I had my life back, dr advised me to avoid gluten and dairy, I have been vegetarian for almost 3 years and feel really good, his best advice was don’t eat salads out, wash your greens in 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar and 1/2 cup hyd peroxide in a gallon of water for 20 mins
    Hope this advice might help other people with crones , IBS

    Dr McDougall and Mary should definitely be credited for their programme. I work in the animal charity field and there's a lot of jealousy and competition which ends up harming the animals we are all trying to help. I've had intellectual property stolen so now I have to trademark everything, which costs a lot of money. I've had essays and articles paraphrased by other organisations who could then claim originality. I've had big charities steal our catchphrase after I mentioned it to them. My innovative ideals were heavily criticised by other charities before, over time, they adopted them themselves, and I was not credited. I could go on.

    I have worked at OHSU for 9 years. I wish I could see a doctor who understands whole food plant based diet. I told my 4th year MD during my annual check up last week I eat a starch centered diet with greens and some fruit. Her response was "where do I get my protein from?" So OHSU as well as many other hospitals around the country need more whole food plant based MD's. They are not accessible to the masses and until they are change will take awhile.

    I ate a "whole food plant based" diet that was 60% fat, and I ended up 45 pounds overweight, exacerbated asthma, with an adenomatous colon polyp. When I went ALL the way over to an McDougall/Esselstyn-style "Plant-Perfect" (McDougall program virtually the same, really....low fat diet based on WHOLE starches, veggies and fruit, TONS of cruciferous greens, no oils, no sugar, little to no salt) I lost the weight in two months, and more importantly lost the colon polyp after 6 months. My colon is now completely clear, but it seems that a "whole food plant based" high fat diet almost gave me cancer.

      well, as they say, the facts speak from themselves. if you put on weight, that could only happen when insulin is present. perhaps you ate too much protein? protein promotes insulin secretion, which in turn promotes fat storage. Insulin is always the killer. insulin is not a problem in keto.

      @@sixthsense2939 The insulin-obesity hypothesis has some basis in fact. However, in a state of caloric excess, weight gain will occur regardless of what insulin levels are. I see people on a Keto diet all the time (i'm a dietitian) who have markedly low insulin levels, yet are very much overweight and gaining, because they're eating too much. Feed a man 2 pounds of oil a day, he'll become morbidly obese with little insulin at all.

    One factor not covered often but applies to millions is Osteoporosis as a common side effect of longterm corticosteroids and PPIs. With Addison’s stopping the first isn’t an option and the latter is very hard to stop for many even on LW/WFPB diet. Issues like gastroparesis and redundant colon can complicate situations too. More studies show what Dr M tried to say about Vit D: added Ca doesn’t reduce fractures. Also many with high BMIs still get osteoporosis and related fractures.

    When I hear the word "Starch" I can't help but think of corn starch in a box to make gravy...the sticky gluey part of potatoes after too much whipping, cake batter being stretched and rubbery while being poured into the pan. Starch is a paste in kindergarten. Yes I think the term "Starch diet" comes with an unattractive visual image. I am over it now and have found I don't need to be afraid of gaining weight with potatoes, they keep me satiated so I can wait 6 hours or so between meals. It's the initial reaction to the word that may cause some people to just not give it a chance.

    As someone diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 47 (am now 56), I understand it's not fair to compare a woman whose my age to a much younger woman in terms of bone density, but I AM worried. Both of my parents have lost A LOT of height and my dad is very hunched. I don't want to lose height. I'm already noticing a tiny gap forming in between my top two front teeth, which means I'm losing jaw bone. I am an active person and exercise, but it's not helping.

The doctor had gotten concerned that he'd need to go in and put a metal plate in my foot, but, thankfully, the bones finally started bridging and healed. The fact my bones didn't heal as fast as they should have is concerning, though.
