My daughter and I started Dr. McDougall's starch solution diet in May. She has tried just about every diet without success. Since then she has lost 30 pounds and I have lost 16 pounds. This is a very easy diet to maintain for both of us. She is 24 years old and easy for her without any cravings! I have my cholesterol checked through work every year and it had been slowly increasing with the A1C slowly creeping up too. Well after being on this diet all my numbers were down so far, the doctor told me that my numbers were light a teenager!! What? I couldn't believe how fast that happened. I am so pleased. We feel more energy and happier on this lifestyle, not to mention it is so easy! I realize nobody really wants to hear about changing their diet. My husband has had 6 stents placed in the past 2 years and now needs open heart because of scar tissue over the stents. He is a diabetic. The surgery will happen in the next month. I can't get him on board with committing to this lifestyle and therefore our 15 and 21 year olds follows his lead. It is so sad because this is truly easy to do and yet they don't want to give up the "good" things they say. My daughter and I will continue to live this way and try to set the best example possible and praying something resonates with them. Anyway thank you Dr. McDougall and Gustavo for the work and reaching the people like us :)
Dr. McDougall gave me my life back. I've never felt better. Every single word he says is nothing but the truth. I have finally stopped eating animals without constantly feeling exhausted and hungry.
This has been a great video - thanks so much. I've just recently started eating vegan and listening to all your videos has been a life changer. God bless you and it looks like God has been blessing you by how much you are helping people with the truth. Thank you so much!!
Completely awesome Dr. McDougall and Gustavo! Thank you for this very valuable information. This is my 14th day McDougalling and already my body has many changes. Arthristis pain has diminished. I have a history of TKR's both knees. Stents heart since 2002. Have not been on any meds what so ever. Cardiologist said all the heart meds raise my liver enzymes and I said good didn't want to take them anyways. So med free my whole life. Feeling great lots of energy. No heart burn, and looking forward to clean eating and clean arteries. Blood pressure has been low most of my life like 120/ 75 now 105/60. Sometimes it would go up to 140/80 but that was in the Drs. office. I told them I had the white coat sydrome. lol.
The one thing I know, and I believe this is all true, is when I tried low-carb, and or Paleo, I felt like crap. No energy. Didn't feel like working out. Fact is sugar/carbs is energy. Required for exercise and feeling good. Therefore, based on my experience this is all true.
Thank you for reaffirming my belief in this diet Tommy N, more and more people giving the thumbs up give me the confidence to share with those in need of it!
I can't personally prove I can lose weight on this yet, just started, but I know that I exercise a lot and low-carb style diets are AWFUL for that. Those aren't the answer. I also get real sick of Paleo real fast. Far less options on a diet like that. My own personal experience.
I tried LCHF for 5 years and never had success either. When I start rethinking the whole macronutrient differences in terms of their boiling point, everything makes sense to me now that sugar in all forms is used by the body. Reading Arnold Ehret's works helped too.
We love you so much Dr.McDougall, and trust me your message is coming out, I wouldn't be here had your message not gotten across to me and my family. I'll go eat my potatos now
Thank you so much for all of this Dr. McDougall and Gustavo Tolosa! I have watched and participated in many of your webinars and they have completely changed my life. I am so grateful :)
Thank you doctor! I found you through durianrider and the low to non fat and vegan high carb has dropped my blood sugar to normal and my blood pressure is on point. Amazing
@@panes840 I am a diabetic I have listen to dr McDougall over the years. I am no at not on medication, but as a type 2 if I eat a sweet potatoe scaling 3 Oz, my sugar will go very high. I would love to eat starches, but I can't. I disagree with him saying sugar does not cause cancer. I am not obese, so I don't know if his client are obese an this is the reason these people can eat starch, but I can't. Just looked his snark remark about dr lustig having a tummy because he is against sugar. He is very arrogant, his way or the highway. I see many drs who ignore, never saying a word against him. Let him have his way. He threw me on another podcast, whe he said dr Gerson, the German drs work is the same as his, when he would be the one who copy dr gerson,s work who if he were alive would be close to 100, because his sister Charlotte is in her late 90,s
@Pastry Shack I hear you in some of what you say. I find him incredibly arrogant. However, the reason for your starches issue would be insulin resistance and/or fatty liver! I would check that out. Sugar doesn't cause cancer. He is correct! What it does do is provide FUEL. This is because the molecules biochemically act differently when processed without fibre. If you have a compromised fatty liver, which generally goes hand in hand with diabetes, then yes, when eating starches will go silly, but that's due to the fatty liver. Fatty liver affects you beta cells in your pancreas and reduces insulin sensitivity. I know this because I have studied nutrition. Refined sugars are also problematic for everyone and their livers. With weight loss, those sugar spikes will come down!!!! Want more reassurance by a diabetic who teaches this with starch for type 1 and 2? Go to Managing Diabetes channel with Cyrus and Danny. You can also cross reference that with highly qualified nutritionist Simon Hill on UA-cam Both channels provide the truth with unbiased scientific evidence and data. Honestly, my mother was the same. She was 71 and got rid of diabetes in under 4 months, but I helped reverse her type 2 with filling her up with starches from beans, steamed and cooled reheated potatoes (best way as you increase resistant starch which is highly protective against some cancers) and fill yourself up with lots of vegetables either baked, steamed, stir fry but NO OIL. Omega 6 oils are fine and can help reduce the number 1 killer heart disease, but the calorie density of oil is very, very high. Jeff Novick does a brilliant video on that. So get rid of foods high in saturated fat. Like dairy and animal products. A little saturated fat is normal. In fact, saturated fat is in an apple (technically), but consuming foods high in saturated fat and cholesterol is not your friend. Our bodies make enough cholesterol all on its own. Again, I want proof? Check out my suggestions. You can seriously change this and quickly, too. Good luck. 👍🏼
@@panes840 thanks, I do listen to Cyrus, Danny, and Simon, I will get my liver checked out. I am not obese 110 lbs, I eat a vegan diet my breakfast is sautéed vegetables like cabbage onions tomatoes and mushrooms, I add 50 grams of chickpeas. I sometimes wonder because I am 77 that it moves with age, but I will keep trying. One good thing, I am never sick. No flu, no bad colds of any king, so if my life continues this way I see my life heading I to the 90. Thank you
Seeing patients only get sicker and how frustrated their doctors were was why I changed my mind about med school and becoming a physician. I did not want to study and work so hard all those years to watch the people I was SUPPOSED to have the knowledge to help get sicker & sicker! I wanted to help people get healthy again!! I thought that's what I would learn in med school, but watching some of the "top" docs in the clinic, I learned med school would not teach me how to make people well again. Fortunately my questions on why these people never got better kept nagging at me, I did my own research and am convinced that most chronic diseases and illnesses can be prevented and reversed with a low fat, whole food plant based diet.
You DID get the message out Dr.McDougall, you did!!! You should feel so happy about that now and don`t start having negative thoughts about how things aren`t working out fast enough! They are working out just fine, everything on time. You did get this important message out! It is out there and people will benefit from it. Remember: Even one drop of water lifts up the ozean! Thank you for the work and good you have been doing in this world! Great webinar!!! Beautiful cooking demo there Gustafo! I love this combination with the humus and the burger buns etc. :-)
Great video! I deal with top sports people and everyone/sports scientists have an opinion on what and when to eat.Most makes no sense at all . Obviously we are dealing with the other end of the scale burning 5000-10000 cal a day.I would love your opinion on this.Thank you very much for your excellent expertise
Thanks for this informative video. Love the recipe. Gustavo, what are the ingredients of the hummus? Looks good and a fine structure. Keep up the good work!
John you say that sugar is empty calories, raises triglycerides and it's not a health food while pulling out a study that proves there's no difference between starches and white sugar and that white sugar does NOT raise triglycerides ! You gotta make your mind doc !
I guess he maybe believes that the study he mentions isn't the last word on it. That maybe it worked for the people in that study, but generally speaking, it's not going to work for everyone the same.
Im having a sugar party tonight here in Chiang Mai. We got some high grade columbian and thai crystal grade sugar. Come and bring your smoothies and rice dishes.
We all know you have issues dude 👾 Are you educating yourself in this channel? I mean watching Dr McDougall talks for over an hour 😂 You go old man, learn from the BEST.
A big clue is waistlines. The diet of people with obese waistlines is incorrect. Whatever diet works to limit the calories in the long run, and something that people we know have eaten in the past is a good indicator on what we should eat. But the studies also clearly show there were no problems in Japan before the western diet infiltrated. Veganism reduces waistlines dramatically and gets people into the correct BMI range and waist line range. I feel satiated doing it. I just started and yet to have to sustain it in the long term. It takes time to cook vegan foods. It is very easy to buy simple foods like a pizza and throw in the oven. However, I have too much to lose. I will dedicate time each week to food preparation.
www.everettclinic.com/medical-departments/gastroenterology-liver-disease-center/fatty-liver Take note of the sentence "In fact, a person can even have cirrhosis with normal liver enzymes." Seriously I am sick of arguing with ill informed people such as yourself.
@@WalrusRiderEntertainment from Ray Peat Many people lately have been told, as part of a campaign to explain the high incidence of fatty liver degeneration in the US, supposedly resulting from eating too much sugar, that fructose can be metabolized only by the liver. The liver does have the highest capacity for metabolizing fructose, but the other organs do metabolize it. If fructose can by-pass the fatty acids' inhibition of glucose metabolism, to be oxidized when glucose can't, and if the metabolism of diabetes involves the oxidation of fatty acids instead of glucose, then we would expect there to be less than the normal amount of fructose in the serum of diabetics, although their defining trait is the presence of an increased amount of glucose. According to Osuagwu and Madumere (2008), that is the case. If a fructose deficiency exists in diabetes, then it is appropriate to supplement it in the diet.
I’ve had allergies to corn since I was a kid, probably since birth. It’s frustrating because right love corn tortillas but they don’t love me back. Serious indigestion, stomach aches, I’ll spare you the rest. I’ve been getting the bulk of my calories these days from fruit in the morning, rice, vegetables, potatoes, pasta, etc. later in the day. Anything conceivable to rid myself of the corn allergy?
Can someone help me out on the 135 g/day of sugar for 4 months -> 1 lb of fat argument? Do we have a source for this? Calorie wise, even at 70% efficiency this comes out to 13 lbs.
i crave sugars very badly its a fight for me to not get it , i am also for medical reasons taking ms contin and that seems to make me want sugars more ! not easy at all . thanks for your vid , informative
yea, but can't rice be mucus forming? I thought rice and those things really create mucus, or is that just the initial response while the body is healing? Because I notice when I have potatoes my body doesn't do well. I think I have to start slow... Sweet potatoes aren't as bad but still cause me to swell and become inflamed.
Sir I have a query. In type 2 DM insulin levels are high already around 5 times the normal counterpart. If insulin resistance is the only pathology behind type 2 DM, then why should insulin lowers blood glucose and it is usually used in DKA. could u kindly explain?
The fat you eat is blocking your insulin receptor sites thus the body has to produce more insulin to get the sugar into the cells. When you eat around 20g of fat MAX per day then your body needs very little insulin to do its job hence you SHRINK and get HEALTHIER :)
You might want to use the word "conventional" rather than "traditional" when introducing Dr. McDougall, Gustavo. Traditional medicine is a thing in itself, and it's not what Dr. McDougall practices.
I'm just an active YT user and practitioner of the diet Pankaj :) Wrote a formal request to their contact e-mail and will post here once they have provided a link!
I appreciate what John McDougall said about Robert Lustig having a belly, but then McDougall looks quite thin. McDougall said that fat, oils, with sugar can get stored in fat cells because of the insulin for the sugars, carbs. So what would happen if you had fats without sugars, carbs, would the fat just get used as energy and not stored?
I am surprise as to how he makes comments about other drs, lustig looks very healthy to me, he gives good information, and I do believe sugar is the enemy.. what I do believe, and have proven it for myself is that all the countries in the world, who eat starchy foods like Japan, China and other starch eating countries are people who work from morning till night in which case they are burning the sugar. These people do not sit around watching TV an I prove it for myself. I love spaghetti when I have it I just go for a strong walk. I have proven everything for myself. A t 77 no pills of any kind not even an aspirin. Just a B12 alovera will be trouble, so I can't use it because it has b12
Dr McDougall, I am an Italian 20yo woman. In this moment the Italian Parliament is trying to approve a new law which forbides parents to raise vegan children until they are 16 years old. We don't know what to do... please help us
Doc how could you possibly add CORN into the equation for clean eating when it's blasted with GMO-Round up ready? Even so called organic corn becomes GMO corn because of pollination. Would you still recommend corn? And I'am addressing this specifically to the doctor.
Take things with a grain of salt friend. Unless you plant it yourself there is no such thing as organic. I plant all my food in a cold country,only 3 months of summer but the bounty is good. I am not sure if the seeds are pure but I try.
I'm already thin, but I want to do this diet for health. Since I'm already thin, almost too thin, will I still lose weight on McDougall's starch based diet? I'm concerned I'll lose even more weight, which would not be good.
I always read dietary fat is converted to triglycerides before it's stored, how can it be stored in its original form? 'After ingestion, lipids (dietary fats) are broken down into glycerol and smaller chain fatty acids by lipase, a pancreatic enzyme. This process is known as lipolysis. Next, these compounds are converted to triglycerides, which travel to your muscles, liver and fat tissues where they're once again broken down into glycerol and fatty acids. Some are used for energy and other biochemical processes. The excess is stored as fat in adipose tissues.'
You have to look at the metabolic pathways for different types of fat. Notwithstanding, those metabolic pathways will react differently if you are eating carbs and protein and the % of all x3 of macronutrients in the diet. On top of that how fat is metabolised will be different for someone who has a fast or slow metabolic rate. Its not straight forward
Can someone please clarify and talk about refined white commercial sugar , cause back a few years ago when I started learning about processed white sugar like S & H I was taught that it was toxic and would dirty up my blood and contribute to toxemia , which is , I came to learn, a key factor in premature ageing . So over the years I have struggled with a white sugar addiction the commercial kind of course , and when I was using this type of sugar I would periodically get a cold with out fail, starting with morning sniffles that would eventually turn into a full blown cold or flue . So then I came to realize all I had to do was stop eating the commercial crappy junk processed food like pepsi coke donuts snickers etc. and I would get well real quick , worked like a charm every time ! now a days Iv'e been vegan for the past three years most all of my health issues have cleared up and I'm looking forward to healthier days to come ! I'm the outdoors kind of guy very active , also a musician, so I exercise and work out to maintain high energy , at 73 I'm doing pretty good all things considered ! I'm off topic , so one last thing , is dr McDougall saying that white sugar is ok ? Is He agreeing with Durianrider that it's ok or healthy to put white sugar in your smoothie and breakfast cereals , and to carb up with commercial sodas like sprite ? I think that's terrible advice for any one who is striving to be healthy on a vegan life style ! white commercial sugar in all it's disguises is like a drug , I'm sticking to whole plant sugars like starches and fruits ! I'm just saying clarify what kind of sugar you're talking about ! I personally follow Dr McDougalls advice , but I'm not sure as to what it is he's talking about when it comes to the word sugar.
Robert Lovato yh he is not very clear at all, he said should be no candy, but it obvious as you said Chocolate bars he just doesn't seem to want to address thus at all, processed food should be avoided
And, why is it important health wise to change the chemical structure of the fat? Just eat less calories, it's that simple. I think it's more about maintaining a good caloric balance than focusing on one group of calories.
As much as I love Dr. Mcdougall I think it´s time for a change in his famous moto: "The fat you eat is the fat you wear", his new version of this moto should be: "The fat you eat and causes OVERLOAD fat blood content, is the fat that can be storaged in your adipose tissue"
sabés, he estado viendo videos tuyos y éste es el primero que miro de él. Sigo confundida con lo de las grasas. Mi alimentación ha cambiado éste año de omnívora, ovolactovegetariana a vegetariana estricta (lo vegano es muy sagrado para empezar a usarlo) he perdido peso pero, ultimamente no puedo dejar de comer aguacate, amo el aguacate, me como uno al día y si me valiera comería más, es malo para la salud? es contraproducente para la pérdida de peso?
No necesariamente, la palta o aguacate tiene grasa pero es una buena grasa, si usted tiene un buen metabolismo preparado para utilizar carbohidrato y grasa y su ingesta calorica es igual o inferior a su consumo calorico total usted no subirá de peso a pesar de las paltas o nueces o aceite de coco que consuma
I have a question for Dr. Mcdougall.... If sugar is needed for energy and its good for us, why do we see articles everywhere that says that sugar feeds cancel cells and eating sugar can be harmfull in that sense... Which is it? Is it good or is it harmfull?
Research is difficult because feeding humans a diet that *might* kill them cannot get funding. So food manufacturers fund research that they can use to increase sales of their products. All we can do is look at the evidence around us. Sugar has increased so it's in every processed food and western countries have 2 or 3 fat people in 3.
So sugar isn’t the problem and doesn’t make you fat. But limit your intake of fruits and so called “simple sugar” if you want to loose weight. What? This is confusing 😅
Exactly! He is confused. So sad. I didn't get up to where he spoke about fruit but he seems to be so scared of sweet fruits as I guess it threatens the validity of his bland starch solution.
@@TheFrugivoredietI can’t remember if he mentions fruit in the video but if you look up the video titled: Rare talk on set point & weightloss - Dr. McDougall. He talks about limiting fruit at around the 31 minute mark.
I started to have aches and pain in my joints when I started doing the mcdougall diet. The pains went away when began eating fish and omega 3's again. I read online that fish oil reduces inflammation and is essential for healthy joints, but I think mcdougall has called BS on that. Has anybody else experienced something like this?
I love Mr Mc Douglas but I am a diabetic, I am not fat, 110 lbs, but I find when I use his diet my knee begins to hurt like an arthritic. I am convinced that his diet is the cause of arthritis. It's difficult to convince people that sugar is the cause of these ailments. If I put a sweet potatoe weighing 3 0z along with vegetables, my sugar goes up to 10. I know he has good intentions but starchavores can not be diabetic and eat this way. I take no medication at all other than a B12 so I don't know why my sugar goes up so high. There are many of his patients who are on medication this might work, but for me it does not. Even the banana bread in the book starch solution would kill me. So I don't know if this is because these people are taking medication. E en 100 grams of chickpeas with Vegetables sends my sugar high
You can damage ecology by irresponsibly raising any crop (and it happens, especially in Brazil). The question regarding comparison to animal agriculture is one of scale.
Focus your diet on low gi starches like brown rice, sprouted bread, squash, beans, legumes, stone ground wheat or very high fiber whole wheat bread (carb ratio to fiber ratio should be 5 or less, so if it has 25 grams of carbs and 5 grams of fiber the ratio is 5, aim for 5 or less on processed breads) oatmeal, corn, yam with the skin, sweet potato with the skin, all non starchy veggies and don't be afraid of fruits, especially berries, blueberries raspberries every kind of berry. Focus your diet mainly on those high fiber starches, for example, oatmeal with berries and cinnamon with unsweetened soy milk for breakfast, brown rice with beans and no sugar tomato sauce or tomato paste or just herbs and spices for lunch, squash, sweet potato, corn, brown rice, black bean, spinach, avocado bowl for dinner or many many other variations on that. You could buy a frozen pack of stir fry veggies from ALDIs, but don't fry it in oil and don't use the sugary sauce packet, just add it in with some soy sauce and brown rice if you want an asian dish, or many many many other variations and recipes.
Just remember, its not sugar that causes diabetes, thats a misconception. Look up dr. Neal Barnard, he's treated hundreds of diabetics with diet alone and virtually cured them. Its because diabetes isn't caused by sugar alone, its far more complicated with that.
tattooed vegan True for many people, but high-fat vegan works best for me, and I'm not fat. I support any cruelty-free diet that keeps you happy and healthy. 🙂
what if I want to gain weight? I've tried eating as many starches as possible but at this point my body burns thru it like its nothing. should I start eating more avocados, nuts and seeds?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with adding, nuts, seeds and avocados as whole foods just experiment amd be mindful that what you can tolerate to eat will be different to someone else and you will find out your own balance. Use these wholesome vitamin and mineral rich fats as "condiments" . Dr Mcdougall I'm sure has said this and so has Dr Furhman.
Dr McDougall has a lot of great things to say but he really is confused on sugar (sucrose). On one hand he says how great sugar is and that it doesn't cause disease then on the other hand he says sugary foods shouldn't be available in school even though children need a large supply of simple sugars. He also hates on fruit a lot and avoids including it in his recommendations. He avoided answering the question about fruit in this video (well where i got up to ). Even though he admits he needs to add simple sugar to his bland complex sugar starch meals in order for people to want to eat them. Basically this is trying to recreate fruit as that's what peoples frugivore cells are truly craving. Also saying refined sugar will "rot" your teeth but refined sugar is also great and recommends you add it to food. It makes no sense that the bodies number one fuel source - glucose and fructose will "rot" teeth. Simple sugars are neutral on the PH scale and do not introduce acid into the mouth that can dissolve teeth. I know about the carb-eating bacteria but people aren't just eating straight sugar, always other substances involved. Teeth health is a complex beast with many many other factors other than diet coming into play. Obviously whole fruits are the healthiest but I'm saddened Dr M is still spreading old wives tales about sugar. He also incorrectly calls starch-based foods "sugars" which easily confuses people. They are not "sugars" until the body has broken down their bonds.
I only crave sweet ..meaning chocolate every night after dinner BUT IS THIS ONLY HABIT..Even if I eat a yummy meal feel satisfied I still want the chocolate body changed weight gain now. .I am 59 ..5ft and small frame post menopausal 10yrs..eat small portions low fat meal no red meat ..chicken steamed vegs low fat milk..b/fast .oats 1/2 green apple little honey...wholemeal seeded low carb bread s/w lunch..my bad food is a mars bar at night..????
Well, We don't know all your medical history but what about changing mars bars for healthier chocolate and stop using dairy & see how do you feel. Just my 2 cents, I am no doctor. Also, I would try to incorporate more greens, but I struggle with that too tbh
One thing I do know from what video have read eat more fruit!!! This balances out blood sugars and cravings for even sweeter foods stuffs. Yes, it works. But drop the ridiculous dairy and choose a healthier chocolate like a date with peanut butter and dairy free choc chips. If losing weight them you will have to cut back on the dates, and oceanus butter
The word sugar should not be used. The word sugar is only associated with white processed sugarcane or refined beet sugar . Carbohydrates is a better word or starch .
Genetics, fat as in keto burning it as primary fuel. Blood levels look fantastic for quite a while but it smashes the kidneys eventually and no long to studies to show its OK.

Fatty liver affects you beta cells in your pancreas and reduces insulin sensitivity. I know this because I have studied nutrition. Refined sugars are also problematic for everyone and their livers.
With weight loss, those sugar spikes will come down!!!!
Want more reassurance by a diabetic who teaches this with starch for type 1 and 2? Go to Managing Diabetes channel with Cyrus and Danny. You can also cross reference that with highly qualified nutritionist Simon Hill on UA-cam
Both channels provide the truth with unbiased scientific evidence and data.
Honestly, my mother was the same. She was 71 and got rid of diabetes in under 4 months, but I helped reverse her type 2 with filling her up with starches from beans, steamed and cooled reheated potatoes (best way as you increase resistant starch which is highly protective against some cancers) and fill yourself up with lots of vegetables either baked, steamed, stir fry but NO OIL. Omega 6 oils are fine and can help reduce the number 1 killer heart disease, but the calorie density of oil is very, very high. Jeff Novick does a brilliant video on that.
So get rid of foods high in saturated fat. Like dairy and animal products. A little saturated fat is normal. In fact, saturated fat is in an apple (technically), but consuming foods high in saturated fat and cholesterol is not your friend. Our bodies make enough cholesterol all on its own.
Again, I want proof? Check out my suggestions.
You can seriously change this and quickly, too. Good luck. 👍🏼
@@panes840 thanks, I do listen to Cyrus, Danny, and Simon, I will get my liver checked out. I am not obese 110 lbs, I eat a vegan diet my breakfast is sautéed vegetables like cabbage onions tomatoes and mushrooms, I add 50 grams of chickpeas. I sometimes wonder because I am 77 that it moves with age, but I will keep trying. One good thing, I am never sick. No flu, no bad colds of any king, so if my life continues this way I see my life heading I to the 90. Thank you
This video needs to go viral.
Fantastic new findings about the nature and the benefits of sugar. Thank you so very much dear Dr McDougall. BRAVO 🌹👍🙏💖😍
Seeing patients only get sicker and how frustrated their doctors were was why I changed my mind about med school and becoming a physician. I did not want to study and work so hard all those years to watch the people I was SUPPOSED to have the knowledge to help get sicker & sicker! I wanted to help people get healthy again!! I thought that's what I would learn in med school, but watching some of the "top" docs in the clinic, I learned med school would not teach me how to make people well again. Fortunately my questions on why these people never got better kept nagging at me, I did my own research and am convinced that most chronic diseases and illnesses can be prevented and reversed with a low fat, whole food plant based diet.
Dr. John McDougall, I adore you..layout are the best
Thank you Dr McDougall 🙏
Wonderful as usual! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful teaching information
Looking forward to seeing Mary and Heather next week!
love. you rock Dr. M
🙋 Love Dr. McDougall’s logo 🤗
thank you for sharing recipes.....
Great information.. Thank you
Yes! Turn off the TV. The peace in your living room will be great!
my favourite part is from 44min on segment...give it Horns Dr...love it
You DID get the message out Dr.McDougall, you did!!! You should feel so happy about that now and don`t start having negative thoughts about how things aren`t working out fast enough! They are working out just fine, everything on time. You did get this important message out! It is out there and people will benefit from it. Remember: Even one drop of water lifts up the ozean! Thank you for the work and good you have been doing in this world!
Great webinar!!! Beautiful cooking demo there Gustafo! I love this combination with the humus and the burger buns etc. :-)
I luv your picture book!!
Great video! I deal with top sports people and everyone/sports scientists have an opinion on what and when to eat.Most makes no sense at all . Obviously we are dealing with the other end of the scale burning 5000-10000 cal a day.I would love your opinion on this.Thank you very much for your excellent expertise
Absolutely nailed it..starches are food for living
I love Johns information , Corn these day is also GMO like grains are manipulated to what causes gluten .
How can you go for Corn when it is GMO ?
Thanks for this informative video. Love the recipe. Gustavo, what are the ingredients of the hummus? Looks good and a fine structure. Keep up the good work!
Dr. McDougall for President!!
;-D
John McDougall is now my PCP.
Super info, sweetened my life. 😁🤣😎
Can mcdougall and durianrider please team up and record a hit song promoting carbs? It would go to number 1 instantly in the vegan community.
I used to fight fire many years,ago..back then we talked about today and how deep the surface fuels will be (are). The fires are deeper and hotter.
Great webinar
John you say that sugar is empty calories, raises triglycerides and it's not a health food while pulling out a study that proves there's no difference between starches and white sugar and that white sugar does NOT raise triglycerides ! You gotta make your mind doc !
I guess he maybe believes that the study he mentions isn't the last word on it. That maybe it worked for the people in that study, but generally speaking, it's not going to work for everyone the same.
May I use the parts of this video, and translate it with subtitles?
Love the information, but could the videos be shorter in length, as in no longer than 30 minutes? Thanks so much.
What happened to Gustavo? No more interviews. I miss him!
This might be a silly question, but when the dr says corn does he mean sweet corn or in the us is it some kind of ground grain?
Im having a sugar party tonight here in Chiang Mai. We got some high grade columbian and thai crystal grade sugar. Come and bring your smoothies and rice dishes.
Yo coach me, I'll be on UA-cam, follow your advice to the tee, and I have a trek Domane so I'm ready to go
We all know you have issues dude 👾
Are you educating yourself in this channel? I mean watching Dr McDougall talks for over an hour 😂
You go old man, learn from the BEST.
😂😂😂 👌
Yay! Durianrider is here :) :) I love sugar!
+susi q He is lost, he knows he has to learn from Dr McDougall.
A big clue is waistlines. The diet of people with obese waistlines is incorrect. Whatever diet works to limit the calories in the long run, and something that people we know have eaten in the past is a good indicator on what we should eat. But the studies also clearly show there were no problems in Japan before the western diet infiltrated.
Veganism reduces waistlines dramatically and gets people into the correct BMI range and waist line range. I feel satiated doing it. I just started and yet to have to sustain it in the long term. It takes time to cook vegan foods. It is very easy to buy simple foods like a pizza and throw in the oven. However, I have too much to lose. I will dedicate time each week to food preparation.
Excess sugar may not turn into body fat but it will cause enlarged fatty liver once your glycogen stores are full..
My Liver is in fantastic condition :)
Have you had a liver biopsy? That is the only real way to find out if you have fatty liver
Actually no, a fatty liver would show up through a blood test of liver functioning. lol.
www.everettclinic.com/medical-departments/gastroenterology-liver-disease-center/fatty-liver
Take note of the sentence "In fact, a person can even have cirrhosis with normal liver enzymes."
Seriously I am sick of arguing with ill informed people such as yourself.
@@WalrusRiderEntertainment from Ray Peat
Many people lately have been told, as part of a campaign to explain the high incidence of fatty liver degeneration in the US, supposedly resulting from eating too much sugar, that fructose can be metabolized only by the liver. The liver does have the highest capacity for metabolizing fructose, but the other organs do metabolize it.
If fructose can by-pass the fatty acids' inhibition of glucose metabolism, to be oxidized when glucose can't, and if the metabolism of diabetes involves the oxidation of fatty acids instead of glucose, then we would expect there to be less than the normal amount of fructose in the serum of diabetics, although their defining trait is the presence of an increased amount of glucose. According to Osuagwu and Madumere (2008), that is the case. If a fructose deficiency exists in diabetes, then it is appropriate to supplement it in the diet.
Anyone know where I can find the paper on diabetes that he mentioned, the one I can show to the doctor? Thanks!
I’ve had allergies to corn since I was a kid, probably since birth. It’s frustrating because right love corn tortillas but they don’t love me back. Serious indigestion, stomach aches, I’ll spare you the rest. I’ve been getting the bulk of my calories these days from fruit in the morning, rice, vegetables, potatoes, pasta, etc. later in the day. Anything conceivable to rid myself of the corn allergy?
Can someone help me out on the 135 g/day of sugar for 4 months -> 1 lb of fat argument? Do we have a source for this? Calorie wise, even at 70% efficiency this comes out to 13 lbs.
what are his views on beans ?
i crave sugars very badly its a fight for me to not get it , i am also for medical reasons taking ms contin and that seems to make me want sugars more ! not easy at all . thanks for your vid , informative
Hello! Great webinar :) May I use the parts of it in my video?
no
Date syrup is it healthier than sugar?
Im gonna have to watch this whole vid as it is 1:11:11 long!
Haha that’s why I clicked on it
yea, but can't rice be mucus forming? I thought rice and those things really create mucus, or is that just the initial response while the body is healing? Because I notice when I have potatoes my body doesn't do well. I think I have to start slow... Sweet potatoes aren't as bad but still cause me to swell and become inflamed.
Read Dr Will Bulsiewicz book Fibre Fueled. He's amazing and I am sure it will fix you.
Sir I have a query. In type 2 DM insulin levels are high already around 5 times the normal counterpart. If insulin resistance is the only pathology behind type 2 DM, then why should insulin lowers blood glucose and it is usually used in DKA. could u kindly explain?
The fat you eat is blocking your insulin receptor sites thus the body has to produce more insulin to get the sugar into the cells.
When you eat around 20g of fat MAX per day then your body needs very little insulin to do its job hence you SHRINK and get HEALTHIER :)
You might want to use the word "conventional" rather than "traditional" when introducing Dr. McDougall, Gustavo. Traditional medicine is a thing in itself, and it's not what Dr. McDougall practices.
Taking great care for words, useful pointer for me personally
Another good phrase would be doc Schwartz.
What must he think of the state of the world now?
Hi Solehin, any chance for a link to the study mentioned at 16 min. Many thanks and great work
I'm just an active YT user and practitioner of the diet Pankaj :) Wrote a formal request to their contact e-mail and will post here once they have provided a link!
Solehin Sabtu Many thanks Solehin - have a great day
I appreciate what John McDougall said about Robert Lustig having a belly, but then McDougall looks quite thin. McDougall said that fat, oils, with sugar can get stored in fat cells because of the insulin for the sugars, carbs. So what would happen if you had fats without sugars, carbs, would the fat just get used as energy and not stored?
You will be fat like Lustig who doesnt eat sugar.
Jimmy Moore is another obese sugar phobic.
I am surprise as to how he makes comments about other drs, lustig looks very healthy to me, he gives good information, and I do believe sugar is the enemy.. what I do believe, and have proven it for myself is that all the countries in the world, who eat starchy foods like Japan, China and other starch eating countries are people who work from morning till night in which case they are burning the sugar. These people do not sit around watching TV an I prove it for myself. I love spaghetti when I have it I just go for a strong walk. I have proven everything for myself.
A t 77 no pills of any kind not even an aspirin. Just a B12 alovera will be trouble, so I can't use it because it has b12
Dr McDougall, I am an Italian 20yo woman. In this moment the Italian Parliament is trying to approve a new law which forbides parents to raise vegan children until they are 16 years old. We don't know what to do... please help us
Feed your kid... He gets malnourished, you go to prison. Sounds fair to me
Doc how could you possibly add CORN into the equation for clean eating when it's blasted with GMO-Round up ready? Even so called organic corn becomes GMO corn because of pollination. Would you still recommend corn? And I'am addressing this specifically to the doctor.
If organic corn isn't good enough for you then eat something else.
Take things with a grain of salt friend. Unless you plant it yourself there is no such thing as organic. I plant all my food in a cold country,only 3 months of summer but the bounty is good. I am not sure if the seeds are pure but I try.
I'm already thin, but I want to do this diet for health. Since I'm already thin, almost too thin, will I still lose weight on McDougall's starch based diet? I'm concerned I'll lose even more weight, which would not be good.
You may need to eat more. Maybe add nuts & Avocados since they are higher in calories. Dr. Fuhrman would suggest such.
This diet is awesome. I eat the food& I stay lean as an older woman. I feel great on it too.
I always read dietary fat is converted to triglycerides before it's stored, how can it be stored in its original form? 'After ingestion, lipids (dietary fats) are broken down into glycerol and smaller chain fatty acids by lipase, a pancreatic enzyme. This process is known as lipolysis. Next, these compounds are converted to triglycerides, which travel to your muscles, liver and fat tissues where they're once again broken down into glycerol and fatty acids. Some are used for energy and other biochemical processes. The excess is stored as fat in adipose tissues.'
You have to look at the metabolic pathways for different types of fat. Notwithstanding, those metabolic pathways will react differently if you are eating carbs and protein and the % of all x3 of macronutrients in the diet. On top of that how fat is metabolised will be different for someone who has a fast or slow metabolic rate. Its not straight forward
ok that explains why i get more satiation from pure sugar candy than from a whole all you can eat at the chinese restaurant meal....
Can someone please clarify and talk about refined white commercial sugar , cause back a few years ago when I started learning about processed white sugar like S & H I was taught that it was toxic and would dirty up my blood and contribute to toxemia , which is , I came to learn, a key factor in premature ageing . So over the years I have struggled with a white sugar addiction the commercial kind of course , and when I was using this type of sugar I would periodically get a cold with out fail, starting with morning sniffles that would eventually turn into a full blown cold or flue . So then I came to realize all I had to do was stop eating the commercial crappy junk processed food like pepsi coke donuts snickers etc. and I would get well real quick , worked like a charm every time ! now a days Iv'e been vegan for the past three years most all of my health issues have cleared up and I'm looking forward to healthier days to come ! I'm the outdoors kind of guy very active , also a musician, so I exercise and work out to maintain high energy , at 73 I'm doing pretty good all things considered ! I'm off topic , so one last thing , is dr McDougall saying that white sugar is ok ? Is He agreeing with Durianrider that it's ok or healthy to put white sugar in your smoothie and breakfast cereals , and to carb up with commercial sodas like sprite ? I think that's terrible advice for any one who is striving to be healthy on a vegan life style ! white commercial sugar in all it's disguises is like a drug , I'm sticking to whole plant sugars like starches and fruits ! I'm just saying clarify what kind of sugar you're talking about ! I personally follow Dr McDougalls advice , but I'm not sure as to what it is he's talking about when it comes to the word sugar.
Robert Lovato yh he is not very clear at all, he said should be no candy, but it obvious as you said Chocolate bars he just doesn't seem to want to address thus at all, processed food should be avoided
And, why is it important health wise to change the chemical structure of the fat? Just eat less calories, it's that simple. I think it's more about maintaining a good caloric balance than focusing on one group of calories.
did dr. McDougall say a blood sugar between 150 and 250 ok
Yes... A real quack
+Pescetarian Umad bro? Umad because VG won't have a 3 way with you and Waldo? Hahaha
As much as I love Dr. Mcdougall I think it´s time for a change in his famous moto: "The fat you eat is the fat you wear", his new version of this moto should be: "The fat you eat and causes OVERLOAD fat blood content, is the fat that can be storaged in your adipose tissue"
sabés, he estado viendo videos tuyos y éste es el primero que miro de él. Sigo confundida con lo de las grasas. Mi alimentación ha cambiado éste año de omnívora, ovolactovegetariana a vegetariana estricta (lo vegano es muy sagrado para empezar a usarlo) he perdido peso pero, ultimamente no puedo dejar de comer aguacate, amo el aguacate, me como uno al día y si me valiera comería más, es malo para la salud? es contraproducente para la pérdida de peso?
No necesariamente, la palta o aguacate tiene grasa pero es una buena grasa, si usted tiene un buen metabolismo preparado para utilizar carbohidrato y grasa y su ingesta calorica es igual o inferior a su consumo calorico total usted no subirá de peso a pesar de las paltas o nueces o aceite de coco que consuma
+El Vegano Cordobes quiero llorar, pero de la alegría. Hoy voy a comer sólo aguacates!!!! Es broma, Je, Je, Je.
El Vegano Cordobes and when he says Rhemotoid Arthritis is incurable then says people are cured , fact is you can treat it but there is no cure
I have a question for Dr. Mcdougall.... If sugar is needed for energy and its good for us, why do we see articles everywhere that says that sugar feeds cancel cells and eating sugar can be harmfull in that sense... Which is it? Is it good or is it harmfull?
Research is difficult because feeding humans a diet that *might* kill them cannot get funding. So food manufacturers fund research that they can use to increase sales of their products. All we can do is look at the evidence around us. Sugar has increased so it's in every processed food and western countries have 2 or 3 fat people in 3.
So sugar isn’t the problem and doesn’t make you fat. But limit your intake of fruits and so called “simple sugar” if you want to loose weight. What? This is confusing 😅
Exactly! He is confused. So sad. I didn't get up to where he spoke about fruit but he seems to be so scared of sweet fruits as I guess it threatens the validity of his bland starch solution.
@@TheFrugivoredietI can’t remember if he mentions fruit in the video but if you look up the video titled: Rare talk on set point & weightloss - Dr. McDougall. He talks about limiting fruit at around the 31 minute mark.
I started to have aches and pain in my joints when I started doing the mcdougall diet. The pains went away when began eating fish and omega 3's again. I read online that fish oil reduces inflammation and is essential for healthy joints, but I think mcdougall has called BS on that. Has anybody else experienced something like this?
He called BS to the lie that Omega 3's could be obtained ONLY by eating fish...
I love Mr Mc Douglas but I am a diabetic, I am not fat, 110 lbs, but I find when I use his diet my knee begins to hurt like an arthritic. I am convinced that his diet is the cause of arthritis. It's difficult to convince people that sugar is the cause of these ailments.
If I put a sweet potatoe weighing 3 0z along with vegetables, my sugar goes up to 10. I know he has good intentions but starchavores can not be diabetic and eat this way. I take no medication at all other than a B12 so I don't know why my sugar goes up so high. There are many of his patients who are on medication this might work, but for me it does not. Even the banana bread in the book starch solution would kill me. So I don't know if this is because these people are taking medication. E en 100 grams of chickpeas with Vegetables sends my sugar high
You can damage ecology by irresponsibly raising any crop (and it happens, especially in Brazil). The question regarding comparison to animal agriculture is one of scale.
Well, I think I'm addicted to natural peanut butter, regardless of the starch content..
Great webinar. I love your cooking demonstrations. Thanks so much.
It's an open face sandwich. Naked is too X-rated.

I'm diabetic.... My Dr. says no sugar ... low starch. Can you address sugars for diabetics.
Focus your diet on low gi starches like brown rice, sprouted bread, squash, beans, legumes, stone ground wheat or very high fiber whole wheat bread (carb ratio to fiber ratio should be 5 or less, so if it has 25 grams of carbs and 5 grams of fiber the ratio is 5, aim for 5 or less on processed breads) oatmeal, corn, yam with the skin, sweet potato with the skin, all non starchy veggies and don't be afraid of fruits, especially berries, blueberries raspberries every kind of berry. Focus your diet mainly on those high fiber starches, for example, oatmeal with berries and cinnamon with unsweetened soy milk for breakfast, brown rice with beans and no sugar tomato sauce or tomato paste or just herbs and spices for lunch, squash, sweet potato, corn, brown rice, black bean, spinach, avocado bowl for dinner or many many other variations on that. You could buy a frozen pack of stir fry veggies from ALDIs, but don't fry it in oil and don't use the sugary sauce packet, just add it in with some soy sauce and brown rice if you want an asian dish, or many many many other variations and recipes.
Just remember, its not sugar that causes diabetes, thats a misconception. Look up dr. Neal Barnard, he's treated hundreds of diabetics with diet alone and virtually cured them. Its because diabetes isn't caused by sugar alone, its far more complicated with that.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I only crave sweet foods occasionally. Some people crave sweets more than others. I crave salty foods and a bit of sour sometimes.
Stephanie if you crave salty foods it means you need more water and your adrenals are probably getting fried from not eating enough carbs
i wish Dr M would do some weight training.
how does he make Hummus without the oil?
There are many recipes online and they are yummy!! My fav is engine2 recipe
+Fatma Al-Hilal that's the best no oil hummus I've ever had. even their prepackaged version at whole foods is delicious.
sonjevity oh i cant wait to visit the US to swim in Engine2 products :D
***** Tahini has a lot of fat. nuts, seeds, avocados and coconuts are the plant based fat sources :)
***** lol sounds good. i stopped fat for a while. am on MWL.
Dr. McDougall looks more and more like Ed Norton :)
lol!
you mean when ed norton was near death in his late 80s.........the doc is only 69
I mean Edward Norton who is 47...
+veganangel68
Wow... He'll never to make it till 50 then if he looks like mcdougall
What do you expect people who are 69 to look like?
EXCELLENT!!!! :) BRAVO .."the fat I eat is the fat I wear"
tattooed vegan True for many people, but high-fat vegan works best for me, and I'm not fat. I support any cruelty-free diet that keeps you happy and healthy. 🙂
zxy atiywariii I do struggle with cravings tho,daily...does the fat help you with hunger?
Is Dr. McDougall sick?
Nope, just old age.
what if I want to gain weight? I've tried eating as many starches as possible but at this point my body burns thru it like its nothing. should I start eating more avocados, nuts and seeds?
He covered this in his July 2003 newsletter. Google for "mcdougall gain weight."
Eat more starch
There is absolutely nothing wrong with adding, nuts, seeds and avocados as whole foods just experiment amd be mindful that what you can tolerate to eat will be different to someone else and you will find out your own balance. Use these wholesome vitamin and mineral rich fats as "condiments" . Dr Mcdougall I'm sure has said this and so has Dr Furhman.
Dr McDougall has a lot of great things to say but he really is confused on sugar (sucrose). On one hand he says how great sugar is and that it doesn't cause disease then on the other hand he says sugary foods shouldn't be available in school even though children need a large supply of simple sugars. He also hates on fruit a lot and avoids including it in his recommendations. He avoided answering the question about fruit in this video (well where i got up to ). Even though he admits he needs to add simple sugar to his bland complex sugar starch meals in order for people to want to eat them. Basically this is trying to recreate fruit as that's what peoples frugivore cells are truly craving. Also saying refined sugar will "rot" your teeth but refined sugar is also great and recommends you add it to food. It makes no sense that the bodies number one fuel source - glucose and fructose will "rot" teeth. Simple sugars are neutral on the PH scale and do not introduce acid into the mouth that can dissolve teeth. I know about the carb-eating bacteria but people aren't just eating straight sugar, always other substances involved. Teeth health is a complex beast with many many other factors other than diet coming into play. Obviously whole fruits are the healthiest but I'm saddened Dr M is still spreading old wives tales about sugar. He also incorrectly calls starch-based foods "sugars" which easily confuses people. They are not "sugars" until the body has broken down their bonds.
Australia Food Guidelines per day 90g of sugar isn't that way too much. 1 can of coke (i drink coke zero) contains 16 teaspoons of sugar. HELP
Sugar does NOT make you fat. No matter what mainstream Pseudoscience says. The evidence says it does not. Skip to 16:30 and listen for 5 minutes.
Don't consume coke because its full of nasty chemicals. That's what makes it unhealthy
I always stop watching it because of the sound quality. It is just me?
I only crave sweet ..meaning chocolate every night after dinner BUT IS THIS ONLY HABIT..Even if I eat a yummy meal feel satisfied I still want the chocolate body changed weight gain now. .I am 59 ..5ft and small frame post menopausal 10yrs..eat small portions low fat meal no red meat ..chicken steamed vegs low fat milk..b/fast .oats 1/2 green apple little honey...wholemeal seeded low carb bread s/w lunch..my bad food is a mars bar at night..????
Well, We don't know all your medical history but what about changing mars bars for healthier chocolate and stop using dairy & see how do you feel.
Just my 2 cents, I am no doctor. Also, I would try to incorporate more greens, but I struggle with that too tbh
One thing I do know from what video have read eat more fruit!!! This balances out blood sugars and cravings for even sweeter foods stuffs. Yes, it works. But drop the ridiculous dairy and choose a healthier chocolate like a date with peanut butter and dairy free choc chips. If losing weight them you will have to cut back on the dates, and oceanus butter
The word sugar should not be used. The word sugar is only associated with white processed sugarcane or refined beet sugar . Carbohydrates is a better word or starch .
How can some people consume so much fat and not gain weight?
Genetics, fat as in keto burning it as primary fuel. Blood levels look fantastic for quite a while but it smashes the kidneys eventually and no long to studies to show its OK.
the patterns on the background look like McDonald's logo
