Dr John McDougall is my hero, he give scientifically proven advice, and a lot of common sense advice too. Everything he tells you is free, he is never trying to sell you products and supplements, just like Dr McGregor doesn't either, I never trust the doctors that are always trying to sell you something.
I am following his guidelines and have never felt better, I have recovered from numerous health ailments. I'm never hungry on this eating plan which is a big plus when you are wanting to lose so Dr John McDougall is my hero, he give scientifically proven advice, and a lot of common sense advice too.

I really love this book. Isn't is wonderful when there is a place a person or couple can go to to regain health? John McDougall set up such a place, in beautiful California, and lots of people have reversed diabetes and heart disease as a result. I tried to get my brother, who had diabetes, to read this. But it was too late, and he passed away. But it is with extreme fondness that I think of this book, and all the people that it has helped and will help. I wish I was rich, so I could give away l I really love this book. Isn't is wonderful when there is a place a person or couple can go to to regain health?

Love, love , love this book. I have been doing WFPB for almost a year but found some things to tweak.

Yep,to lower cholesterol eliminate animal products, boost fiber, reduce fat...

Definitely feels dated, but the dietary advice is still 100% solid. I recommend Dr. McDougall's latest book, The Starch Solution: Eat the Foods You Love, Regain Your Health, and Lose the Weight for Good!, if you've never read anything by him before. One thing that is helpful in this book that some of his others don't have is a whole section on how he treats all sorts of common chronic diseases.

It is helpful to see his perspective on all these diseases, since Dr. McDougall is a special kind of doctor - a board-certified MD who still uses many standard medical practices but always does the maximum that can be done with diet and any other natural, non-invasive treatments first. ...more

This book is how I lost all my weight and have kept it off! 55kgs down and maintained it since then. It's easy to follow, promoters healthy & big portions of whole foods, and loads of easy recipes. A+

Amazing information, given written in 1990. There are so many more recently published books on plant-based diets, it's interesting to see how forward-thinking McDougall was at the time. Anxious to check out a more current book by this author. Amazing information, given written in 1990.

John A. McDougall is an American Irish physician and author whose philosophy is that degenerative disease can be prevented and treated with a low-fat, whole foods, plant-based/vegan diet – especially one based on starches such as potatoes, rice, and corn – which excludes all animal foods and added vegetable oils.
