this guy's story is amazing. it just goes to show that the body can heal itself given enough nutritional support. I managed to drop my cholesterol by about 80 points with diet and exercise alone. I've had a slight relapse due to my own food addictions and weak will.. but I'm still going to keep on trying to eat clean and stay off the fats and oils!
Have any of you cruel people stopped to think what would happen to the profits of those poor Pharmaceutical companies if information like this was public knowledge?
+acerimmeh People would still continue to do what they're doing. I see people buying tons of wine on Friday. Even if it contains formaldehyde in fermentation process in order to quicken it for purchase. They'd still drink that shit. People are stupid man. Only the small minority of smart people actually change themselves.
This fellow sounds a lot like me, only I wasn't as extreme in training, nor did I let things go until I needed bypass surgery. I started a plant-based diet and got better before meds were needed, surgery, disability. Getting better every day, and losing weight easily. Thanks.
I am borderline diabetic. I went on a KETO diet. At the end of August after several months on that diet I began getting leg cramps, and my shoulder became so inflamed I had to go for steroid injections. They have not helped. A week ago I found this channel. I purchased a new glucose monitor and decided to try this diet. I thought there is no way this diet can possibly be good for a diabetic. So far my numbers on my glucose meter are better than I have ever had. I'm stunned. My hope is all my arthritis symptoms will heal. I am putting this lifestyle to the test. I'm 64, and I am 5'2" at 191 lbs. We'll see how it goes.
Grandma Patty I'm right there with you. I'm finishing week 2 of WFPB following the Starch Solution closely. 5'6" and 217 pounds to start. Docs want me on statins but I refused because I wanted to try a dietary approach first. I'm already down 7 pounds, AND best of all the angina symptoms I had started to develop - GONE! And I am NEVER "hangry".
A natural practitioner helped me cure my arthritis with a WFPB diet. However, he really emphasized that WHOLE meant NOTHING PROCESSED! That's what puts this lifestyle ahead of Vegetarian/Vegan. NO salt, sugar or flour products regardless of their grain source! He advised more veggies -especially celery, even juicing it, as the sodium phosphate in it helps to dissolve bone spurs and bring lost calcium back into solution- than fruits as too many fruits can be acidifying, and NO CITRUS, even tomatoes. Natures Plus has a product Source of Life Calcium, plant based that he recommended. I was in my forties at the time and my MD had told me there was no cure for arthritis and that cortisol could buy me some time. I am now 76, 5'6", 132 and ARTHRITIS FREE!💚
Wow, this testimonial is such a powerful hit, destroying the argument, the myth that bad eating habits are correlated with low education levels. Fantastic person. I was amazed to find out that, of all places, he has success doing the McDougall program in Texas.
thanks for your testimony! i am so glad for the internet .. that has so important information and testimonies like these. It's a miracle that many problems have such simple solutions.. inexpensive ones also.
I avoid " doctors" & prefer self care. However I would love to be under the care of Dr.Mcdougal! This man is smart & strong❣️ I am so proud of him! God bless him & may his story fill the ears of those who can hear! Amen🕊️
He's right, the hardest part is not screaming it to everyone you meet! So many positive changes happened so fast, including reversal of diabetes and kidney problems, my head was spinning! Why had no other doctor ever told me this!!! I HAVE to share it but it's so frustrating because people believe what suits them. My compromise is to DARE people to try it for 30 days and prove me wrong! lol
This is one of the best testimonials, because he was very fit, then had the operation and took all those drugs, then quit them. Did you quit cold turkey or taper off?
I can identify with George’s leg pain that felt like a charlie horse that never went away. That is what I had too. But after following the McDougall plan for only 16 days, my leg pain is GONE! Also all my joints no longer ache as they did prior to the plan. I whole heartedly encourage you to give this eating plan an honest try. You will be glad you did.
I love this guy! My family have told me recently that they know that eating the way I am is the healthiest, and they know they could get off their meds if they do the same, but they don't do it. How can you be okay with being ill? Especially when you know the cure
George Goff, thank you for sharing. Things that resonate is the part where you said you can’t live like this... The other part was when you said things that you read was like common sense.
We need to shout out the WFPB lifestyle 😯 Eating a WFPB diet is the best for our health, for our environment, and for the animals. Keep spreading the word people need to be educated😀👍🌀
Hi George, I'm glad for your success and a question please. Would you have your current LDL(p) number or would you know if further calcification of your arteries has been stopped? Thanks, Phil
You have a motivated individual, here, which is a huge portion of the battle. Knowing to read the website and doing it led him on the path to success. Most people do not have the motivation. I'd like to know what this individual's education and profession is. Being willing to read newsletters back in history takes some discipline. The pain was a motivator, obviously, with his leg problem. Sometimes, that's what's necessary to get the change.
The charley horses in his leg could be from trigger points (knots and strands of tension in muscle fibers; Habitually contracted sarcomeres that are stuck in contraction) in his quads, hamstrings, hip flexors, ql's, and glutes! Research Trigger point therapy and seek out a book called 'The trigger point therapy workbook, Third edition' by Clair Davies!!
oɌionⓋ Blaa..... blaahhhh.... blah....! Really...? I think the guy is very clear....! No trigggeeeerrrr points.... The problem is functional.. What do you put in you mouth ,,!
oɌionⓋ Ok great....! so follow the path you have chosen to help others...Just don't forget to listen carefully with all your senses and heart to what they say, feel and need.... I am a practitioner too. love, peace and awareness for a very injured world.!
The crucial part of this video is the question why was he not told this before he was put on a cocktail of damaging drugs. We all know the answer, when it comes to the big earners that is the main chronic diseases the medical profession is tightly controlled indirectly by the drug companies. Here in the UK I was told that if I did not go on Statins I would be dismissed from the hospital clinic and so it was, they expelled me from the medical service I needed. I had to get my local MP involved who wrote to the hospital and there was an enquiry into the incident which they clearly accepted should not have happened. The sad truth is that millions of people are walking around unaware of these real alternatives not only to treatment but prevention.
Can Dr. McDougall, or anyone, show Dr. Mercola the studies of coconut oil? He thinks its healthy. I tried to post the reality,( on youtube: "is coconut oil really healthy?"), but it says I'm blocked.

acerimmeh maybe the sarcasm went over my head
acerimmeh yeah! I stopped and thought about about them, and realized; screw them!!! Liars!
I can't tell if you're being serious or tongue-in-cheek?😳
LOVE your humour ;) Probably why this info wont go public.... just follow the money for the info we are fed by the corps.

He said he quit all at once. That's why he was afraid he was going to die.

Great story. Thanks for posting :-)

Very inspiring testimonial. The will to live must win! Living long, living well on a no oil, vegan diet. It works.
