I could not walk, the pain was too great which has been a problem for over 50 years... NOT NOW! I found this info and quit animal products. NOW I CAN walk, and exist without swelling in my joints and in my brain. THANK YOU! I will eat brown rice and beans forever, and never feel sick and tired again! :)
Jane T, Your comment is 3 years old so not sure if you will get this, but just curious, how long on the diet did it take to reverse your pain and physical problems?
Eat fruit and leaves and feel even better. Starch is a cheap/poormans version. Beans are downright hard to digest and cause a feast for intestinal bacteria producing gas. Which in turn produces endotoxin and raises inflation.
Dr. McDougall is an MD with integrity. See all the 'famous' doctors who flip their opinions whenever a fad diet comes and goes. They jump on the bandwagon, make millions, jump to another do the same while Dr. McDougall never bent what he believes in through thick and thin for 40+ years. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
That is because he stands on shoulders of men who had great convictions to their own morals as well. I hope we will see another one carrying his torch when he is gone.
I dissagree! It is hard to hold to a conclusion - when it goes against the profits of large industries like meat, dairy, pharmacutical. They defend profit - remember the cigarette industry? McDougall had heart problems at an early age, and with research discovered the dietry connection.
Dear Dr John,Thank you so much,you have changed my life for the better.I have stopped all my Rheumatoid Arthritis drugs,and curing myself by following your advice,ie,not eating meat,dairy,oil,eggs.I'm losing weight too,and will report back in a few weeks at my progress.I'm going to be shouting it from the rooftops once I see my lost figure returning!!!!!😃😃😃😃❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing video! I love how you tell people not to get into the weeds. I get emails about BPA, GMO, organic, gluten, acid/alkaline - so many distractions when people just need to stick to a low fat starch-based diet. Plus it's so tasty - mashed potatoes, tacos, baked fries, rice and beans with salsa and baked corn tortillas.
Thank you DR. McDougall I have followed you on youtube for years and I appreciate that you help even those that cannot afford your workshops . Thank you for help the public understand that we have a huge control over our own health .
I was struggling on dr furmans diet when i listened to dr McDougal and added potatoes and sweet potatoes i felt much better and have stayed with it. He makes a lot of sense. Furman is not wrong he just doesn't have the last piece of the puzzle.
OUTSTANDING. A giant in this field that is missed every day. This is a fantastic lecture, showing his full intellectual power and passion for the subject.
Thank you very much Dr MacDougall. I have done your Starchatarian diet for the last 2 years and I have had great results in improving my health and overall happiness. BRAVO 🙏👍😃💖🌹🙏
He's one of those people that come around every few decades, maybe even centuries that take it upon themselves to bring the truth to the people and, save the damned
Considering McDougall's poor health as a young man on the SAD, the lean, healthy 67yr-old here is the strongest case for a whole-food, plant-based diet.
I agree. But you should really not look at n=1 examples. Look at populations of people. Keto people call this junk science but clearly their retinas are full of atheroscelerosis.
I mention DrM's situation because nay-sayers use his 2020 gaunt appearance as "evidence" of the diet being less than optimal. (I do believe WFPB-starchitarian-vegans'd make a better case for the diet w/progressive strength-training in their regimen. I think they prefer running.)
This whole confusion about low carb or high carb gets resolved for me by looking at the age of the people advocating these various positions. In 2 days I will be 56, I don’t look to some younger whipper snappers like Daniel Vitalis or David Wolfe to tell me how to achieve longevity and health. I look to studies and I look for people older than me who appear to be functioning well. Caldwell Esselstyn is near 80 and has the studies to show that what he is advocating works. McDougall is 67 and for his age looks very good as well and is pretty much advocating the same thing. I work at a place, The Omega Institute, where I see zillions of young healthy people eating any number of different ways all the way up to their late 40’s. Once one hits 50 or so problems start to rear their heads unless one has incredible genetics. I want to see Perlmutter and Grain Belly doctors with all the people they put on their plan who 5 and 10 and 20 years later are free of cardiovascular disease.Show me their studies and research. Ain’t gonna happen
+Philip Brown If this type of reasoning resonates with you then you should check out Dr. Dougal Graham. He is in his late 80's and he is much healthier than McDougall, still doing pullups and handstands at his age.
+Philip Brown David Wolfe is a new-age nut judging from some of the woo-woo babble that comes out of his mouth. It amazes me that anybody is interested in anything he has to say.
+Manny Medina Unfortunately Douglas Graham also is guilty of pushing water fasting retreats , at one a young lady nearly died and he went after her to 'protect' his brand rather than making sure she got timely medical intervention.Compassion is absent in that man ...he is another 'guru' in terms of creating a personality cult
I have shared your videos with all my friends and family! Thank you so much for your work! I have been searching for the truth, and I know I found it here!
At 35 I've realized that I don't understand diet moderation. I do very well with a black and white approach. I don't want to give up pizza and chocolate cake... but I've never had 'just 1 slice '. It's easier for me to 'just say no '. Glad I found this bc now I know I'm not alone. :)
i love my carbs... i have celiac disease and i am still able to have many forms of carbs. This video has so much great information. I am working my way through all of Dr McDougall's books.
I still have a copy of Wheat Belly, and can't decide if I should burn it, or hold on to it as a reminder to never again fall for a fad diet. Keep it carbed people!! Thanks Dr. McDougall, I never tire of listening to your message.
Haha that’s a dilemma! My MIL has kept a copy of Wheat Belly on her kitchen counter for at least 5 years now… she still struggles with her weight. I discovered Dr. McDougall’s program 2 years ago and lost 75lbs in the first 15 months. I have no more weight to lose! Never though I’d ever be this trim again after having kids ❤
Thank you very much for this video,I was listening to it while I was making mashed potatoes with baked black beans and broccoli for my family for dinner,it was delicious ,what a beautiful dish too:)
Okay I am going to worship the Dr. Mcdougall from now on. Wonderful explanations and thank you for being the light for numerous of people around the world.
I was one of those intelligent people who got duped by Wheat Belly, then something clicked. I remember reading on the Wheat Belly page that some people were not shedding the weight, and Dr. Davis said, if you find that your weight isn't going down, cut the dairy out of your diet too. (What the???) I came across Medical Medium, Forks Over Knives, and other plant-based diets, and suddenly realised it was all wrong. How could I have been so stupid - why would eating high fat, restricting fruits and vegetables, heal your body? It all makes sense now. I am so glad I found Dr. McDougall.
this makes me think about all my Asian friends came to Canada gained lots of weight and skin problem. They ate too much dairy products which were not very popular in Asia, like cheese. As soon as they go back home for the summer, they slim down again. I personally love bread ,rice, and soy milk. Eat the good stuff for your body!
McDougall is a legend who's been pouring through the scientific journals/research on many topics for decades from a passion to know everything since knowledge is power especially for a doctor! No wonder he knows so much!
dr mcdougall is a lovely man and has made such a positive impact on the world with his ideas and his nice simple diet. While I've realized after 2 plus years on the McD plan that perhaps his diet is not the highest level of nutritional excellence, its a GREAT way to get started on vegan diet. Now I aim to consume a lot more greens, beans, raw, make green smoothies and even a few supplements and I feel even better, but if not for McD, I never would have gone plant based so I am always indebted to McDougall for his simple, clear message
Had to comment since you had the same experience that I did. Even the timing is in sync. His diet certainly removes all the bad stuff - meat, dairy, sugar and heavily processed foods. Not quite sure why he hasn't emphasized the high antioxidant food. One thought I have had is that He wants people to eat food that is higher calorie content in order to feed a growing world population.
John had a great and rich life with a great family and friends, even if he as a young adult suffered some injuries. He was able to turn things around and prolonged his life a lot due to healthy foods. It’s not how many years you live, it’s the life quality and health during the years that you get that is the only thing that counts. Here John is a winner. Living another 10 or 20 years with poor health is not an option
DR MCDOUGALL AND MARY MCDOUGAL You have made a AWESOME different please believe that thank you so much for your help thank you so much for keeping it real
Thank you Dr McDougall. Your speech is Very inspiring. I tried Atkins diet once and hated the way my body feels during that time and also I am not a huge fan of animal products. I didn't know why but Now after listening you presentation i got it.
I'm so glad to have come across this. One of the things that I have been worrying about a little when it comes to my diet (I am a high carb low fat vegan) is if I need to be concerned about developing diabetes later in life despite not being overweight. Really good information here.
This is so eye opening! I've lived my whole with crappy health. I thought it was because I was born premature. But it doesn't have to be that way! Thank you Dr. Mcdougal! I just hope that my family joins me. And soon!
I'm pleased to listen to this speaker as his weight is ideal and his jaw carries no toxic over load.We all notice various degrees of swelling beneath peoples jawline. Under the jaw is the storage place for excess toxins in our food. This man's body speaks his truth.
I too believe Dr McDougall is not at his best (worn out) in this video. He is pushing himself too hard in his fight against the meat, dairy, and pharmacutical industries. But how can a prophet stop spruking? McDougall can reverse illness in people, saving them so much suffering with his diet plan. He wants to help ... despite the cost to his own health.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DR MCDOUGALL THAT YOU NEVER GIVE UP AND ALL THE INFORMATION THAT HELP PEOPLE GET WELL YOU ARE SO FABULOUS THANK YOU FOR CARING AND SHARING WE NEED MORE DR LIKE YOU
dont like religious context,, they tend to feel superior to animals,, witch seems to always be religions who are source of making us white feel superior to everything else,, cause hey god made to our image,, ofc im not talking about all religious,, i have well used to have so much respect for boudism, now i hear the fkin assole not even vegetarian or vegan,, fkin piece of sht new dalahi,, and i hear stories dat boudist actually fight back or might get into the army?,, hmm questioning the new ones in power,, cause dats not how i remember ghandi
I am on board and would really appreciate having subtitles for non-English speaking folks outside of the US. Attaching email response sent re: this video: One suggestion: I just played the video through UA-cam and was able to generate English subtitles. I don't need them, but here in Brazil where I spend most of the year I have spoken to a lot of people here and they are in need of these videos with subtitles for greater understanding of plant-based diets. Veganism is increasing here, but plant-based diets are 99.99% unknown. For many, the English subtitles will not help them, but having subtitles available in Spanish will facilitate understanding for most Brazilians who can easily read and understand Spanish, a first cousin of Portuguese. As mentioned, the great majority of people here are unaware of the benefits of plant-based nutrition and I for one would be thankful and as a means of sharing the knowledge. Thank you for your consideration,
Best 1 of the best drs ever thank you for being real and trying to save the world with your wisdom if only more drs could take a page from your books the world would be a better place
I was a tired child all my life, no energy even to make friends, but I had no real illness. I did the Candida diet which eliminates all grains. At the age of 27 for the first the clouds parted. I could think for the first time, my mind just got clear, I didn't need to nap every day and my personality started to shine. But I went back to grains after about 2 weeks and the clouds came back. I had no discipline to eat the way I needed to eat. Then about 10 years later I did the raw food diet at age 37 which was even more incredible. Again the clouds parted, a very bad back injury became painfree, all my body limbered up, I had the sharp mind and personality strong again and an interest in people and energy to connect with them. I showed others the raw food diet and saw miracles of healing, well-being and many good things. Grain-Brain and Wheat Belly are two of my favorite books. Maybe the problem is the hybridization. I also crash from rice.
Thanks for all the info about Dr.Kempner and the rice diet. I was aware of some of his success, but you did a great job covering other findings and studies that I was not familiar with.
Great speech. Thanks so much for drilling down on the few subtle points. Carbs, then nutritarian, not the reverse. White rice not bad for you. Sweeteners as flavoring agents only.
Hiding in my room I know the feeling I was 70 before I came across this information and for the past 5 years I have been on a plant based diet. My friend who just watched the game changers and went vegan and within 3 months his bad cholesterol had dropped 33 points and he is now within the safe limits. He is a regular gym bunny but could never get his bad cholesterol down within accepted limits.
Thank you Dr. McDougall for a very fine explanation about what is right in the current health battles. I hope most people are not criticizing you as I see in the comments on youtube. You look wonderful for your age and show the peak of health in that you can spend more than an hour discussing what works and doesn't work when it comes to diet. Obesity and heart disease killed my father, his father, his father's sister and his brother. I wish I could of helped them change from a high protein plus high sugar diet. Thank you that I do not have to fear what I saw them go through.
Hello from Romania, I watch every video I can find that you put up. Thank you Dr McDougall on all the great information you give us. I really believe in what you teach. I have to be very careful with my diet as I have had diabetes in my past but have never been over weight. I live a vegan diet now and no longer have to take any shots but still keep a close eye on it. The lady that stood up and asked you about the stevia really caught my interest.I would love to know your thoughts on it
I quit smoking, first by cutting back. Sometimes it is a process. I cut down from 1 pack a day to 4 cigarettes a day (maximum) until I "weaned" off. I have been cigarette free for almost a decade and have zero desire to ever smoke.
liked this, im sure he makes very valid points but i have to say that wheat absolutly does make my arthritis go nuts! i will try to take his other points on board though...
Yep. Quartley check up. A1c level went up. Received a printout... Nothing White! I love potatoes and Rice. Not on the list to eat. Oh my. Hmm, think I will watch the Potato video again. Thanks Dr. McDougall.
Do what works. Some people do great on meat, dairy, eggs, some do great on gluten and all manner of whatever all their lives. The trick is, if you are having problems, narrowing down what you do well with and what you don't. Allergy testing, elimination diet with detoxing and supplements to heal the gut, then adding back foods one at a time makes sense to me.
I no longer have high blood pressure (a normal pressure for me was 220/115). I suffered terribly from severe edema and type II diabetes. My swelling is gone, I no longer take high blood pressure medication and had to stop taking my diabetes medication because I went into diabetic shock. I could only walk for a few minutes before I was out of breath and had angina. I wish I had learned of this diet years ago; it would have vastly improved the quality of my life which at the time was filled with excruciating pain.
! would actually argue that this is helping people with celiac (like me). 10 years ago, it was so hard to find gluten free breads, no one knew what gluten was, going to restaurants were always a pain. But now that there is so much demand, there are dedicated gluten free restaurants, most places have gluten free menus, or at least gluten free options marked on their menus. Fred Meyers and other stores have entire aisles dedicated to gluten free products. You wont see that kind of treatment for any other food allergy that affects 1% of the population.
Eating my potatoes today in honor of this man’s body of work! God Bless you Dr McDougall!
I don't see this "anger" you guys are talking about...this man is very passionate about saving lives
I could not walk, the pain was too great which has been a problem for over 50 years... NOT NOW! I found this info and quit animal products. NOW I CAN walk, and exist without swelling in my joints and in my brain. THANK YOU! I will eat brown rice and beans forever, and never feel sick and tired again! :)
jane t Brown rice and beans in a flatbread wrap! I can live on that forever.
Jane T, Your comment is 3 years old so not sure if you will get this, but just curious, how long on the diet did it take to reverse your pain and physical problems?
You'll fart a lot tho
Eat fruit and leaves and feel even better.
Starch is a cheap/poormans version.
Beans are downright hard to digest and cause a feast for intestinal bacteria producing gas. Which in turn produces endotoxin and raises inflation.
@Berserker Will the farting eventually cease?
Dear John, thank you for all your work and sacrifices! ♥️
Dr. McDougall is an MD with integrity. See all the 'famous' doctors who flip their opinions whenever a fad diet comes and goes. They jump on the bandwagon, make millions, jump to another do the same while Dr. McDougall never bent what he believes in through thick and thin for 40+ years. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
That is because he stands on shoulders of men who had great convictions to their own morals as well. I hope we will see another one carrying his torch when he is gone.
what? he eats rice and veggies, he will never die!
I dissagree! It is hard to hold to a conclusion - when it goes against the profits of large industries like meat, dairy, pharmacutical. They defend profit - remember the cigarette industry? McDougall had heart problems at an early age, and with research discovered the dietry connection.
Actually, I agree 95% with him. (He's not under any pressure from Big Business ..anymore than you are.)
I find the 'doctors' who jump on the fads tend to be chiropractors
This plan has turned my life around. Thank you Dr. McDougall
He is the Mother Teresa of Medicine. Saving lives one at a time.
Dear Dr John,Thank you so much,you have changed my life for the better.I have stopped all my Rheumatoid Arthritis drugs,and curing myself by following your advice,ie,not eating meat,dairy,oil,eggs.I'm losing weight too,and will report back in a few weeks at my progress.I'm going to be shouting it from the rooftops once I see my lost figure returning!!!!!😃😃😃😃❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Dr. McDougall, I left dairy products, a plant based diet is the future!!! 🌍💖🌱
Amazing video! I love how you tell people not to get into the weeds. I get emails about BPA, GMO, organic, gluten, acid/alkaline - so many distractions when people just need to stick to a low fat starch-based diet. Plus it's so tasty - mashed potatoes, tacos, baked fries, rice and beans with salsa and baked corn tortillas.
Thank you DR. McDougall I have followed you on youtube for years and I appreciate that you help even those that cannot afford your workshops . Thank you for help the public understand that we have a huge control over our own health .
Best Doctor in the world 🌎 Thank you Dr. John McDougall !! Diabetes type 2 in remission.
He reminds me how much it drained you every time you try to explain the truth over and over again. Good job! and continued spreading the words.
Two years later, I make the same statement. Wake up people and share this video! Save the lives of your loved ones!
I was struggling on dr furmans diet when i listened to dr McDougal and added potatoes and sweet potatoes i felt much better and have stayed with it. He makes a lot of sense. Furman is not wrong he just doesn't have the last piece of the puzzle.
Dear John,
Thank you for holding true to your values and your message. I just really wanted to say thank you for this. Keep up the good work!
OUTSTANDING. A giant in this field that is missed every day. This is a fantastic lecture, showing his full intellectual power and passion for the subject.
I THANK ALL THE DR WHO ARE DOING LIKE DR MCDOUGALL
Thank you very much Dr MacDougall. I have done your Starchatarian diet for the last 2 years and I have had great results in improving my health and overall happiness. BRAVO 🙏👍😃💖🌹🙏
This guy is seriously cool!
I love him! He's deffinately leaving his legacy behind! I hope I can do the same one day!
He's one of those people that come around every few decades, maybe even centuries that take it upon themselves to bring the truth to the people and, save the damned
Absolutely
I admire your passion Dr. McDougall. I'm a believer. Respect. God Bless! Keep it up!
Considering McDougall's poor health as a young man on the SAD, the lean, healthy 67yr-old here is the strongest case for a whole-food, plant-based diet.
A stroke patient at 18 thanks to the SAD. Now still alive and doing excellent thanks to that WFPBD!
I agree. But you should really not look at n=1 examples. Look at populations of people. Keto people call this junk science but clearly their retinas are full of atheroscelerosis.
N=1 examples don't mean anything.

@@lazur1 I think the diet is fine but could increase fat more. 10% I think is too low, we know more now.

yes please do! this stuff works perfectly!

As soon as they go back home for the summer, they slim down again. I personally love bread ,rice, and soy milk. Eat the good stuff for your body!

For many, the English subtitles will not help them, but having subtitles available in Spanish will facilitate understanding for most Brazilians who can easily read and understand Spanish, a first cousin of Portuguese. As mentioned, the great majority of people here are unaware of the benefits of plant-based nutrition and I for one would be thankful and as a means of sharing the knowledge.
Thank you for your consideration,
Best 1 of the best drs ever thank you for being real and trying to save the world with your wisdom if only more drs could take a page from your books the world would be a better place
I was a tired child all my life, no energy even to make friends, but I had no real illness. I did the Candida diet which eliminates all grains. At the age of 27 for the first the clouds parted. I could think for the first time, my mind just got clear, I didn't need to nap every day and my personality started to shine. But I went back to grains after about 2 weeks and the clouds came back. I had no discipline to eat the way I needed to eat. Then about 10 years later I did the raw food diet at age 37 which was even more incredible. Again the clouds parted, a very bad back injury became painfree, all my body limbered up, I had the sharp mind and personality strong again and an interest in people and energy to connect with them. I showed others the raw food diet and saw miracles of healing, well-being and many good things. Grain-Brain and Wheat Belly are two of my favorite books.
Maybe the problem is the hybridization. I also crash from rice.
Thanks for all the info about Dr.Kempner and the rice diet. I was aware of some of his success, but you did a great job covering other findings and studies that I was not familiar with.
THANK YOU. Stellar presentation, I have a pounding in my heart of Great Happiness for all who hear this.
Great speech. Thanks so much for drilling down on the few subtle points. Carbs, then nutritarian, not the reverse. White rice not bad for you. Sweeteners as flavoring agents only.
The man at 34:48 had his head in his hands because he just realised he'd been making the wrong dietary choices his whole life.
+Vegan star toad XD I thought the same thing ~!

Hiding in my room
I know the feeling I was 70 before I came across this information and for the past 5 years I have been on a plant based diet. My friend who just watched the game changers and went vegan and within 3 months his bad cholesterol had dropped 33 points and he is now within the safe limits. He is a regular gym bunny but could never get his bad cholesterol down within accepted limits.
great video and very useful information...
Thanks so much for this video! Greetings from Germany! :-)
just say "NO" to animal products !!!
Thank you for this John.
Day 4 on McDoughall and 2 lbs down
Thank you Dr. McDougall for a very fine explanation about what is right in the current health battles. I hope most people are not criticizing you as I see in the comments on youtube. You look wonderful for your age and show the peak of health in that you can spend more than an hour discussing what works and doesn't work when it comes to diet. Obesity and heart disease killed my father, his father, his father's sister and his brother. I wish I could of helped them change from a high protein plus high sugar diet. Thank you that I do not have to fear what I saw them go through.
Hello from Romania, I watch every video I can find that you put up. Thank you Dr McDougall on all the great information you give us. I really believe in what you teach. I have to be very careful with my diet as I have had diabetes in my past but have never been over weight. I live a vegan diet now and no longer have to take any shots but still keep a close eye on it. The lady that stood up and asked you about the stevia really caught my interest.I would love to know your thoughts on it
love his speech,..true on his ownself and a dedicated doctor
I quit smoking, first by cutting back. Sometimes it is a process. I cut down from 1 pack a day to 4 cigarettes a day (maximum) until I "weaned" off. I have been cigarette free for almost a decade and have zero desire to ever smoke.
I'm gonna try this
@@kcjb7861 I wish you the best!
Awesome teaching presentation on grains 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
love that fun info film @ 11:40 ....Super!...and awesome choice of music!
The health decline of America started with processed foods
You made a difference to me john..(in a good way)thank you.
Thank you, Dr. McDougall!
Thank you so much for spreading the truth. After changing to a plant based diet so many things have improved for me.
liked this, im sure he makes very valid points but i have to say that wheat absolutly does make my arthritis go nuts! i will try to take his other points on board though...
Master Class
Yes you are making a stupendous difference....god bless
Yep. Quartley check up. A1c level went up. Received a printout... Nothing White! I love potatoes and Rice. Not on the list to eat.
Oh my.
Hmm, think I will watch the Potato video again.
Thanks Dr. McDougall.
His answer to the question starting at 56:00 is very important to the whole issue.
Do what works. Some people do great on meat, dairy, eggs, some do great on gluten and all manner of whatever all their lives. The trick is, if you are having problems, narrowing down what you do well with and what you don't. Allergy testing, elimination diet with detoxing and supplements to heal the gut, then adding back foods one at a time makes sense to me.
Thank you doc. GodBless
Great stuff, again!
he has way more patients than the ones he names. I know he is my doctor.
I no longer have high blood pressure (a normal pressure for me was 220/115). I suffered terribly from severe edema and type II diabetes. My swelling is gone, I no longer take high blood pressure medication and had to stop taking my diabetes medication because I went into diabetic shock. I could only walk for a few minutes before I was out of breath and had angina. I wish I had learned of this diet years ago; it would have vastly improved the quality of my life which at the time was filled with excruciating pain.
How are you doing these days?
Thank-you Dr Mcdougall I love the the starch solution 🇬🇧 x
You can listen to this good man or you can choose to be sick. It's your choice.
Love seeing the peer-reviewed medical studies!
John McDougall, MD is incorrect about wheat belly and grain brain. They are not the Atkins diet. They are very different.
! would actually argue that this is helping people with celiac (like me). 10 years ago, it was so hard to find gluten free breads, no one knew what gluten was, going to restaurants were always a pain. But now that there is so much demand, there are dedicated gluten free restaurants, most places have gluten free menus, or at least gluten free options marked on their menus. Fred Meyers and other stores have entire aisles dedicated to gluten free products. You wont see that kind of treatment for any other food allergy that affects 1% of the population.
I'm a huge fan
