Linda: Reversed Heart Disease, Pre-Diabetes and Lost 50 Pounds

I’m certain I would have died 34 years ago had I not found Dr. McDougall. I had thyroid cancer, severe heart disease, pre-diabetes and was 50 pounds overweight. My new neighbor recommended Dr. John McDougall. I looked him up and bought his book The McDougall Program 12 Days to Dynamic Health. After reading about the many people he saved from near-death or from being very sick, I was hooked. I changed to a starch-based plant diet. I ate Mary’s delicious recipes and lots of potatoes. I was not perfect as I was still drinking wine at night with dinner or when we went out.

It has been about 30 years now that I am alcohol-free and I have never felt better in my life. I became certified in The Starch Solution and I teach Food for Life Nutrition and Cooking for Dr. Neal Barnard. I have my certification from Dr. T. Colin Campbell in Plant nutrition. I started health coaching and still do!

I have had great success implementing The Starch Solution. However, along the way, I started eating too many nuts in the form of cashew gelato even though it is oil-free. I ate too many avocados, tofu, olives, and oil-free vegan cheeses too. I gained 20 pounds or so and didn’t admit it to myself. I just bought bigger and looser clothes! Wow, I found out how easy it is to deny the truth!

"I liked the support & personal interaction with Dr. McDougall & Mary & all of the teachers. I liked the simplicity of the program & the amount of information & resources given to us. I liked the flexibility of watching the lectures later if needed, so you could fit it all into your schedule." - Linda N.
