Dr. McDougall discusses his book The Starch Solution: Eat the Foods You Love, Regain Your Health, and his legacy as a prominent voice for plant-exclusive eating since the late 1907s. The basic McDougall diet is made of starches, vegetables, and fruits – no animal products of any kind and no added oils. His February 2009 newsletter article, “The Starch Solution,” explains the importance of centering diet around common starches, such as rice, corn, beans, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. The “Hot Topics” on Dr. McDougall’s home page are the best way to find articles that are important to you.

My “Hot Topics” on my home page is the best way to find articles that are important to you. The “Search” feature is also powerful – use it. The discussion board offers almost instant help from followers of the program. You will benefit greatly from taking two minutes out of your day to watch McDougall’s Moments videos.

Blast from the past! One of Dr. McDougall’s many success stories is 4-decade cancer survivor and marathoner/triathlete, Dr. Ruth Heinrich.
