so much helpful information for a healthy diet and easy weightloss. I've been on the program for 2 months and have lost 15 pounds. I'm still learning how to eat, trying new recipes all the time. it can be a challenge to unlearn everything we were taught to be "good for us" and switch to eating carbs and grains again. give it 2 weeks and be amazed. so thankful for this book and the starch solution.

excellent book

Love the information in this book very helpful in understanding good and how it effects your body. The robotic nature of narration can put you asleep.

Great book. Would like another narrator.

I really enjoyed this book. The reader was great. There are some drawbacks in having this information in audiobook form (have both the audio and kindle book). The best part of having audio book is that you can get this information on the go. I use the audiobook (which I've listened to sections a couple of times) to remind myself of what I'm working on with my health and eating. Great resource!

Great audio book that discusses healthy living

I weighed close to 500 pounds and I am down to about 260 pounds now by following the McDougall Diet for maximum weight loss. It is very easy to do and once you get the hang of it you will stick with it for the rest of your life. You'll never be able to go back to the SAD diet ever again. I was diabetic with about 20 meds a day and now I take nothing. All my lab work is perfect. Thank you Dr. McDougall, you saved my life!

Best Dr. ever!

What I liked about this book is it’s no nonsense easy approach on how to cure disease and fix the American body. Well any human body. I’m on this for three days and already my diabetes numbers are better and I’ve been a diabetic since 1996. I just stopped using my medication and started eating beans and oatmeal, raw oatmeal with water and blueberries. Love this book it’s so good

Life saving!!

A different look at food and how to feed what our body needs.

loved it, used all the information to help my husband who was recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.
After 1 month following the guidelines, he is off ALL his meds. Dr. McDougall's diet CAN and DOES provide the cure!!

The ONLY tool needed to cure so many diseases!

I found the book to be very educational. I just love John and Mary and have been a plant based vegan/ starchivore since 2015. There are tons of foods to eat on this diet. I would read it again and again!
