There's so many and it's tough to decide... baked sweet potato, black beans, brown rice, white rice, oats.... In a rush, white rice and a can a black beans can be made into a meal in 15 minutes...
At 6 feet tall I was 215 pounds. I had Asthma, hay fever, borderline high blood pressure, 3 hernias, Arthritis, diverticulitis, internal and external hemorrhoids I was tired all the time everything hurt and I just felt terrible. I got surgery for the hernias and went on the McDougall diet. At 166 pounds my weight stabilized. All my health issues are gone and I feel years younger. God bless John and Mary McDougall .
In 2014, after watching Forks Over Knives, I failed at a vegan diet after 3 months of full dedication. I didn't even try to go back until I came across Dr. Mcdougall's Starch Solution talk on RUclips. NONE of the other WFPB doctors (even to this day) explain well enough the most important foods for people that require high calorie intake. I'm an aircraft equipment mehanic and I will say that without Dr. McDougall's specific message, virtually every manual laborer would not be able to maintain a WFBP diet.
What separates Dr McDougall from others in the WFPB movement is that he specifically focuses on what replaces meat in the diet. He also focuses on the Whole Foods (which many do.) He shows in history how major groups of people survive and thrive on a diet centered around some kind of starch, with supporting veggies and fruits.
Sonterp To be honest.. Nobody can live off of salads and Balsamic vinegar. I'm not a manual worker and spend a big chunk of my day sitting or standing and still failed the vegan diet for the same reason OP did when I first tried it.
I struggled following Dr. Neal Barnard, I was a fat vegan & couldn't figure out why. It's was the fake meat, Fake cheese, nut butters, nuts, dried fruit, avocados, olives, tofu, tempeh, oil & processed chips & food Fried in oil. Not to mention chocolate!
@@jgrysiak6566Dr. Milton Mills has master class videos on the chemistry and metabolism of foods to help encourage people to stay healthy with the power of plants. Another is Dr. Klaper & Dr. Garth Davis.
I never tire of listening to Dr. McDougall. I find it so inspiring that even after all these years, he's still continues to be so passionate about his message about a starch based diet. I am so grateful for his work!!
Great interview! You changed my life Dr. McDougall. One thing I’ve noticed is that our society is so overweight, it’s becoming the norm and thin people are looked at as unhealthy. I’ve lost weight and but could still stand to lose 10 lbs. my friends think I’m too thin and one even put her arm around and said “honey, you need some protein.” I’m the only one of my senior friends not on meds and can run circles around them.
I believe it's true most people see normal BMI as unhealthy now. I'm 5'10" and I lost 50 lbs (217 lbs down to 167) and almost all of my family and friends tell me, "You are too skinny!" I've seen many anti vegetarian comments saying the vegan/vegetarians on you tube look unhealthy. I sincerely believe it's because skinny is seen as unhealthy now. I've been on a mostly WFPB diet for 9 months now and I feel great! I'll never go back the standard american diet.
@@priyankaprabhakar2338 I have RA, to get remission you must cut gluten, seeds, seed's oils, dairy, sugar, raw leafy greens, onions, scallions and garlic. eat lots of starchy foods and white lean meats, cooked vegetables, fruits. do it for a month and you'll notice the difference, then after your remission you can eat normal again just avoid seed's oil and gluten for life.
@@misakistalker but I heard that starch should be avoid in autoimmune disease and it is related to leaky gut so we should have lots of raw fruits and vegetables, besides can also take nuts and olive oil. So I am following this.
@@priyankaprabhakar2338 they must be talking about starches from flours, because starches from potatoes and fruits are so good for IBD's, also oatmeal and rice are okay, avoid wheat flour the gluten cause inflammation in some people.
What a great story. He fell in love at first sight - it took 3 weeks to get a date, then 6 weeks later they were engaged! Adorable. 'Marry a happy person, or you'll never make her happy'. So true - good advice. I've been a fan of Dr. McDougall's since his first book came out in the 70's or early 80's. I LOVE Dr. McDougall, he shoots from the hip and tells the truth! They ARE criminals! This is a great interview!
Fantastic interview with my very favorite doctor! Gianna is an excellent interviewer too! I love what Dr. McDougall said about MS (Multiple Sclerosis). My husband died at age 41 due to MS. I wish we'd known this information in 1980 when he was first diagnosed. We always grew a garden and ate lots of fresh vegetables, and then we changed our diets a little further, after hearing about Dr. Roy Swank. But it wasn't enough. (We tried to eat what we thought was "low fat".) Changing from beef to chicken is not enough. The drugs that were prescribed didn't help, but they made his face blow up like a chipmunk. It wasn't until after he died that I discovered Dr.McDougall. (I used to listen to his radio show!) I would debate with my former mother-in-law about the relationship of diet to MS. She'd argue, "The MS Society says it has nothing to do with food." Like most people, she was brainwashed, bless her heart. PLEASE, everyone. Listen to this man. He speaks the truth. BTW, I'm now 66, my blood pressure is normal, my cholesterol is 112 (that is not a typo - my doctor was amazed), and I take NO medication. Oh, I and I have to add this. If you need more information or plenty of easy, yummy recipes, go to his website, www.drmcdougall.com - it's all free. :-)
The way in which my life changed after becoming starch-based is unbelievable. I eat mostly starches, fruits, vegatables and a few nuts. I dont eat any oil, refined foods or animal products. My physique has improved dramaticly, my self-esteem has grown tremendously and Ive lost all the excess fat in my face. I feel amazing, and for all people struggling, I just wanna get the message out there. Much love, Gianna and Mcdougall. Thans for everything you do✌.

Using Hollywood Jeff as his hitman is cowardly. In this video, McDougall cleaned up and sobered up attempting to ease the drunkard image he unwittingly revealed. Much of the historical data McDougall shares about "starch" (as he calls it), is whole-grain carbs, not the depleted white rice he peddles.
McDougall calls the low carb specialists "liars" and "cheaters"; and you can't figure out why people dislike him? In my view, he is a "Great White Saviour"--in that he thinks he knows what makes Asians healthy or not. He has no clue, and he looks very sick himself.
Great guest, great interview, I love Dr McDougall. I am doing his Starch diet and he has improved my health and my life greatly. Thank you very much dear Dr McDougall and dear Gianna 💕🙏👍🌹😍
No no no, everybody in Europe doesn't smoke, Gianna. Our regulations are much stricter than in the US of A. Besides that: good interview - gotta love dr. McDougall... His advice (that I have followed for 15 years or so) cured my Lupus completely - would never eat any other way.
I love it when plant based experts understand that health goes beyond whats inside us.. whats the point of being healthy in a dead world that's hell for all animals including us.
CR7 is the proof that high protein diet is good! CR7 is 34 years old, still the physically fittest player in football who can jump highter than 2 metres in the air! he also looks very young! if you dont want to have good shaped muscles, then okay you can eat low protein diet!
l found this man and his wife 1 month ago and l have watched many videos on what they are preaching. It all makes sense. Easy and simple. My next grocery haul was potatoes, rice, corn and beans. Foods that l like; and my checkout was less money. It couldn't come better at anytime as today. lm changing up my menu for sure. Mash potato and gravy is a meal fit for a Queen
I save so much money, also! I don't eat at restaurants and I cook my own food, so the plant food staples are generally some the healthiest and cheapest foods. I'm looking at $150 per month for food, which includes: whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta and black beans, carrots, spinach, kale, bananas, tea. I can get 'prepared' canned beans or regular canned beans and prepared is a real treat to me. I will save $20 a month if I cook from dried black beans. That's $240 a year, or something like $8700 over the next 35 years. I need to save that money, too, because I'll most likely live a long time. Estimates show it's likely gonna be upper 80s. I predict further.
@@Viosified he exceeded the average length of male lifespan in the United States. Still, I expect to live longer most likely cancel my get me younger, but there is extremely low chance heart attack will.
@@RiDankulous yup, he exceeded it by about 245 days, but I was expecting him to live much, much longer knowing what he knows about health and nutrition. I was surprised and saddened by the news of his death, especially because my uncle lived up to 92 despite his years of smoking, alcohol consumption, and eating just about anything carnivorous without regard to his health. Dr. McDougall's death seemed too early in comparison, as I was expecting him to be healthier than most based on what he teaches. My dad died at the age of 77 as well, but he had type 2 diabetes from his carb cravings, so I am a little bit confused, to be honest. My understanding is, the average life expectancy applies to the ordinary folks who know little about health and die from natural and unnatural causes/diseases. I wish you the best!
This Doctor is like a treasure box of good life saving information. I'm so glad there is cameras to record this priceless information. Great interviewy!
True about the Tarahumara (also called the Raramuri) natives, they still run on sandals and win world competitions and also run wearing their native costumes such as large maxi skirts during marathons. Tarahumaras, due to Spanish hostilities and colonization efforts in the Mexican region. The Rarámuri Tribe was one of the few tribes that was never conquered by the Spanish and never converted to Christianity. The Spanish called the Rarámuri people Tarahumara people because of the mountains in that region and the area where they settled. The meaning of rarámuri in the Tarahumara language means approximately those who run fast. The Rarámuri people are known for their quickness on foot, their hunting skills, and other athletic characteristics.
Great interview, I soak in every thing Dr. McDougall has to say. Back to basics shouldn't have to be taught in this generation, how ever the world has gotten so far off in so many area's, that here is this wonderful Dr. teaching us again what God said we should follow in our eating. thank you Dr. McDougall and Gianna for this vidio.
@@robynhope219 all his healthy eating info is available on his site and youtube channel for free. Starch, corn, rice, lentils, potatoes, split peas, chickpeas, bread, beans, small amounts of fruits and veggies.
@@hmackjay, you are known by the company you keep and McDougall proudly runs with Hollywood Jeff who uses lots of aliases to pretend he has visitors on his RUclips channel. He fakes it, even creating controversy to stimulate interaction for his own benefit. Do you think McDougall would not stoop so low? He stoops to run with Hollywood Jeff.
@@hmackjay, are you talking about his failed MS study? Or his copy-cat Kempner depleted rice diet? Or maybe you are speaking of the "wisdom" he gleaned from Nathan Pritikin? Before it spoke for McDougall it spoke for the originators. Right now he's attempting damage control of his image. I guess that drunken RUclips appearance woke him up a little?
I love this channel! So beneficial and important. Thank you Gianna for all of these amazing interviews. P.S I've been able to heal my body from endometriosis thanks to all of these amazing doctors! THANK YOU !
We grew up in a family based on starch diet but getting to the west and eating western rich families diet, we so silly changes in our lives and bodies I’m glad to be back in eating healthy food starch and happy 🌱 vegan
I love how good quality your interviews are:) and John McDougall have changed very much my life.. I started plant based diet 3 years ago, and learned very much from his webinars with Gustavo Tolosa :)
My total cholesterol was going up over time and I tried no sugar diet and boom: It went to my record high at 215 mg/dl, with high being 200. I went on the Mcdougall diet in 2018 and pretty quickly total cholesterol dropped to 120, with anything below 140-160, depending on the scale, is ideal. It also fixed my high LDL, high weight, high blood pressure and high resting heart rate. I also came off my blood pressure medication and blood pressure is virtually normal, as well as heart rate normal, which was previously controlled by that medication. I take for granted how fleet footed I am now, as i was in high school as a soccer player, but I remind myself now. I have minor chronic problems that are irreversible such as acid reflux likely due to hiatal hernia, rare and moderate knee pain due to injury.
He does look better sober. But I question his wisdom of ignoring highly nutritious plant food opting for depleted white rice instead. Folks with cancer cells multiplying in their bodies need cruciferous veggies to kill cancer. Filling up on dead white rice is not a smart choice.
@@larrymaloney877 Dr McDougall recommends brown rice over white rice. He is not opposed to cruciferous vegetables either. Check out some of his wife's recipes. (FREE on his website) A lot of the recipes call for brown rice and green vegetables such as kale and broccoli. And she was using quinoa in the 70's before it became popular.
Hi Gianna, I want to thank You so much for doing this interview with dr. John Mcdougall. He is helping us all by telling us the truth on how to get well and You Gianna do us all a good service by posting this interview. Thank you so much and you did a Great job asking Great questions so much respect for You. Mc dougall is a true and Good doctor to us all. hope this message about diet spreads everywhere. I Love You Gianna! thanks so much 😃
Our ancestors did not process and mill the nutrients out of their "starch". They ate the whole grain, the starch, the bran, the germ, and the fiber, all of it. McDougall eats what is left after removing the nutrients and fiber. How dumb is that?
Yep, my dad and brother both died of colon cancer...my dad's doc asked us all to "quit red and processed meats," back in 1986 when he was diagnosed! So I did....but went completely to plants in 2010 when my brother died of it. At 61, I feel like I'm 31! No aches or pains, get out and walk every single day...work full time and haven't needed a sick day in over 14 years plus I donate blood pretty much every 65 days, which is like a mini check-up.
Amazing content! Thank you for this education. I've had such a hard time trying to eat little to no carbs on a plant based lifestyle.🤦🏾♀️ This has helped me and now going to get the book.
On the fish, Dr. Esselstyn also say that fish produces more TMAO, which is a huge negative for the endotheliel cells than other animal proteins. Thank you for this interview!
👍Dr Mcdougall, you are straight speaking honest MD sharing the truths about good health and your healthy look is the evidence of what you are practicing - 信, 解 , 行, 證。 When you met Mary, you just fell in love with her instantly! I believe this is 緣, happened with a reason ("cause!"). It happened to many people "love at first sight". I believe this type of love shall last "until" you parted! Keep on with your good works.
Does "starch-based" mean depleted white rice for you? I eat whole-grain carbs for energy and cruciferous greens for nutrition. "Starch-based" doesn't define, or describe a healthy diet. Eating "starch" is like eating "protein" it means whatever you imagine. For McDougall starch is poor quality processed white rice. McDougall's strongest argument is a billion Chineses eat white rice. A billion small people is an example of why not to eat processed foods, including depleted white rice.
Larry Maloney first off, Dr. McDougall has said many times that Brown is better, but white is fine. Second, yes, I actually eat white rice daily. White rice is not depleted, just stick it into an app like cronometer and you’ll see it contains multiple B vitamins, zinc, selenium etc
@@kaylanichole5972, unfortunately, McDougall is being dishonest. White rice is so depleted of nutrients the government requires processors to "fortify" it with synthetic vitamins before it's allowed to be sold. I bet McDougall and his business buddy, Hollywood Jeff, doesn't tell you that! Unfortunately, your "app" does not detail the milling process. And anyone who follows shifty McDougall knows he's anti-vitamin, except B-12. And I prefer my B-12 minus the depleted white rice. Enjoy your depleted rice if that's your knowledge-based choice. Based on nutritional knowledge, I choose whole-grain brown, wild, and black rice, none from the southeast USA where the fields are contaminated with arsenic. Unfortunately, McDougall still espouses mid-twentieth century nutrition. Twenty-first-century nutritional science interferes with McDougall's antiquated nutritional beliefs. My loyalty is to my health, not a stubborn doctor who abuses drugs.
@@kaylanichole5972, you say" I’m the healthiest I’ve ever been." That's does not reach the level of optimal health. And the reason for your health is an absence of meat & dairy and bottled oils & processed foods, not because you eat white rice. Since food volume is limited I prefer nutritious plants, not those partial plants processed by billionaires for resale to gullible consumers. Ironically, the germ from milled grains is packaged as "health food." The bran is also packaged and sold at a premium price. It's the depleted white starch that sells so cheaply. It's great for feeding a billion Chinese to prevent starvation, but I prefer healthy nutrition...not a lot, but potent. Depleted white rice does not kill cancer cells. If you prefer white rice you might try basmati, it has a nutty flavor. McDougall doesn't know this but the Chinese eat different white rice than the species sold in the USA. They are two different plants. Theirs is short-grain, and "sticky." It's easy to eat with chopsticks. With McDougall's species chopsticks don't work. But enjoy all the depleted white rice you choose. There are so many grains rice is a small part of my diet. McDougall chooses white rice to keep his diet simple hoping to attract the most customers. Wouldn't it be interesting to see a study of the relative IQ of folks who follow the various nutrition doctors? On average is there a difference? Or do we all average about the same with no statistical difference? I doubt smokers and non-smokers have the same IQ. What about meat-eaters and vegans? Each thinks the other is dumb. What is the truth?
CR7 is the proof that high protein diet is good! CR7 is 34 years old, still the physically fittest player in football who can jump highter than 2 metres in the air! he also looks very young! if you dont want to have good shaped muscles, then okay you can eat low protein diet!

Dr. McDougall died in his sleep on 6/22/24. He was only 77. Wow! Did he die of a heart attack? Does anyone know? I am now having my doubts about a strict WFPB.
This is a really simply smart diet ever that work very nice almost in everybody compare that one who always counting the calories and bloody scary about carbohidrate, Dr. McDougall is one of a life safer angel on the planet, thankyou for precious knowledge...🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙
I disagree that a cooked starch diet is the ultimate nutrient dense diet. Vitamins and minerals are destroyed by heat. This also -- like Dr. McDougall said -- is not contested. I do however agree that the starch diet is the food for mankind NOW.
Are there any experienced coaches out there for this type diet? I can pay but I am sick and need some hand holding till I move in right direction. Thank you 🙏
This doctor can't make himself more clear enough. l hear him loud and clear. Just eat potatoes, rice, corn and beans. Starch is our power foods. How simple can this be. For my health, this day forward my menu changes
What's your personal favorite Starch Food?
There's so many and it's tough to decide... baked sweet potato, black beans, brown rice, white rice, oats.... In a rush, white rice and a can a black beans can be made into a meal in 15 minutes...
Japanese sweet potatoes, they taste like baked custard & cheesecake to me!

Beans and rice together! Sweet potatoes and pasta are each really close to being my favorite though.

It's not starch based
It's plant based
Look into more closely
50 50 plate it's half starch and half vegetables
In other words
Plant based diet
The truth is
If you were to get off American diet and eat non processed foods
And more wholefoods
And ditched the super size American portions
You would see the difference
Gmo foods
And processed foods
N the super size plates
And drinks
And the amount of sugar in foods is what is really making Americans fat
The doctor needs to go to Greece and what they eat
How they eat
And how long they live
However
I just want to make it clear that I appreciate him
I just disagree on certain points
As I am also into medicine
Nutrition
And healthy lifestyle

No no no, everybody in Europe doesn't smoke, Gianna. Our regulations are much stricter than in the US of A. Besides that: good interview - gotta love dr. McDougall... His advice (that I have followed for 15 years or so) cured my Lupus completely - would never eat any other way.
Wow could you help me connect with a coach for this diet? I feel like I’m dying. Thank you 🙏
There is no cure for lupus...don't make false statements😢maybe less symptomatic!
Dr. John McDougall is one of my heroes. Thank you for this wonderful interview.
Long live starch, legumes, vegetables, and fruit!
🥔🌽🍞🥕🍄🍅🍏🍓
With your videos, it's like you're still with us. RIP Dr. McDougall
I love it when plant based experts understand that health goes beyond whats inside us.. whats the point of being healthy in a dead world that's hell for all animals including us.
Dr McDougall is most knowledgeable, most experienced, and the best.
standing on the shoulders of Nathan Pritikin et al.
I really don’t agree with the whole earth is overpopulated thing, but I like and believe everything else he said.
I’m really enjoying learning about plant based eating. Thanks for interviewing Dr. McDougall!
Inhabitants of Earth need to know and share this message far and wide: ruclips.net/video/ELjgTs7BFC4/видео.html
I take his same approach to nutrition and just add more greens and fruit! I also love the story about his wife!
What is her story??
He's looking better these days. Keep it up Dr. McDougall.
Dr. McDougall is outstanding.
The world will foerever be grateful to Dr. JM!
CR7 is the proof that high protein diet is good! CR7 is 34 years old, still the physically fittest player in football who can jump highter than 2 metres in the air! he also looks very young! if you dont want to have good shaped muscles, then okay you can eat low protein diet!
This makes so much sense if you listen closely. Thank you so much.
l found this man and his wife 1 month ago and l have watched many videos on what they are preaching. It all makes sense. Easy and simple. My next grocery haul was potatoes, rice, corn and beans. Foods that l like; and my checkout was less money. It couldn't come better at anytime as today. lm changing up my menu for sure. Mash potato and gravy is a meal fit for a Queen
I save so much money, also! I don't eat at restaurants and I cook my own food, so the plant food staples are generally some the healthiest and cheapest foods. I'm looking at $150 per month for food, which includes:
whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta and black beans, carrots, spinach, kale, bananas, tea.
I can get 'prepared' canned beans or regular canned beans and prepared is a real treat to me. I will save $20 a month if I cook from dried black beans. That's $240 a year, or something like $8700 over the next 35 years. I need to save that money, too, because I'll most likely live a long time. Estimates show it's likely gonna be upper 80s. I predict further.
@@RiDankulous...only smart folks knows what we know......
@@RiDankulous dr McDougall recently died at the age of 77. I hope you outlive him with the same diet he was on.
@@Viosified he exceeded the average length of male lifespan in the United States. Still, I expect to live longer most likely cancel my get me younger, but there is extremely low chance heart attack will.
@@RiDankulous yup, he exceeded it by about 245 days, but I was expecting him to live much, much longer knowing what he knows about health and nutrition. I was surprised and saddened by the news of his death, especially because my uncle lived up to 92 despite his years of smoking, alcohol consumption, and eating just about anything carnivorous without regard to his health. Dr. McDougall's death seemed too early in comparison, as I was expecting him to be healthier than most based on what he teaches. My dad died at the age of 77 as well, but he had type 2 diabetes from his carb cravings, so I am a little bit confused, to be honest. My understanding is, the average life expectancy applies to the ordinary folks who know little about health and die from natural and unnatural causes/diseases. I wish you the best!
This man knows his stuff , and look at him fantastic !!!!
This Doctor is like a treasure box of good life saving information. I'm so glad there is cameras to record this priceless information. Great interviewy!
I LOVE DR MCDOUGALL!!
😉😍🥰🤩 LEGEND
True about the Tarahumara (also called the Raramuri) natives, they still run on sandals and win world competitions and also run wearing their native costumes such as large maxi skirts during marathons. Tarahumaras, due to Spanish hostilities and colonization efforts in the Mexican region. The Rarámuri Tribe was one of the few tribes that was never conquered by the Spanish and never converted to Christianity. The Spanish called the Rarámuri people Tarahumara people because of the mountains in that region and the area where they settled. The meaning of rarámuri in the Tarahumara language means approximately those who run fast. The Rarámuri people are known for their quickness on foot, their hunting skills, and other athletic characteristics.
Good interview Gianna. I'm a fan
Need to spread this important message as well, I am wondering what does Gianna think of this video: ruclips.net/video/ELjgTs7BFC4/видео.html
RIP ♥ ♥
Great interview, I soak in every thing Dr. McDougall has to say. Back to basics shouldn't have to be taught in this generation, how ever the world has gotten so far off in so many area's, that here is this wonderful Dr. teaching us again what God said we should follow in our eating. thank you Dr. McDougall and Gianna for this vidio.
He has such charisma! I am really looking forward to watch this at daytime! :)
And I love his info. I have been starch-based for years and vegan for 19 years. His info is the best! :)
Agreed, he does better sober.
He does have charisma...u need that as salesman.
@@robynhope219 all his healthy eating info is available on his site and youtube channel for free. Starch, corn, rice, lentils, potatoes, split peas, chickpeas, bread, beans, small amounts of fruits and veggies.
@@natureasintended not interested...his diet doesn't cut it 🙁
Why didn't I discover this amazing specimen any sooner. God bless you Dr.McDougall. Reporting the truth to help us all back on the right path.
What a legend!
I wonder how many fake aliases are posting on this video to hype McDougall? I hope he stays sober a while.
Why would he need fake aliases? His work speaks for itself.
@@hmackjay, you are known by the company you keep and McDougall proudly runs with Hollywood Jeff who uses lots of aliases to pretend he has visitors on his RUclips channel. He fakes it, even creating controversy to stimulate interaction for his own benefit. Do you think McDougall would not stoop so low? He stoops to run with Hollywood Jeff.
@@hmackjay, are you talking about his failed MS study? Or his copy-cat Kempner depleted rice diet? Or maybe you are speaking of the "wisdom" he gleaned from Nathan Pritikin? Before it spoke for McDougall it spoke for the originators. Right now he's attempting damage control of his image. I guess that drunken RUclips appearance woke him up a little?
I love this channel!
So beneficial and important.
Thank you Gianna for all of these amazing interviews.
P.S
I've been able to heal my body from endometriosis thanks to all of these amazing doctors!
THANK YOU !
yes, one of my very favorite Vegan Doctors!
I’m now eating this way!
Thank you so much for providing us this interview
Gianna, Great interview with Dr McDougall. You two seem like best buds
FBG, A1c, Cholesterol, TG, BP and more improved while eating as many potatoes as my heart desired. Thanks Dr McDougall.
Love your interviews. Also you are a really beautiful woman and love your style. You have so much grace and poise.xx
Gemma M thank you! 💗
Is this new? Dr McD looks good.
No, he is beginning to look unhealthy on here.
We grew up in a family based on starch diet but getting to the west and eating western rich families diet, we so silly changes in our lives and bodies
I’m glad to be back in eating healthy food starch and happy 🌱 vegan
I love how good quality your interviews are:) and John McDougall have changed very much my life.. I started plant based diet 3 years ago, and learned very much from his webinars with Gustavo Tolosa :)
My total cholesterol was going up over time and I tried no sugar diet and boom: It went to my record high at 215 mg/dl, with high being 200. I went on the Mcdougall diet in 2018 and pretty quickly total cholesterol dropped to 120, with anything below 140-160, depending on the scale, is ideal.
It also fixed my high LDL, high weight, high blood pressure and high resting heart rate. I also came off my blood pressure medication and blood pressure is virtually normal, as well as heart rate normal, which was previously controlled by that medication. I take for granted how fleet footed I am now, as i was in high school as a soccer player, but I remind myself now. I have minor chronic problems that are irreversible such as acid reflux likely due to hiatal hernia, rare and moderate knee pain due to injury.
Thank you interviewing this amazing man. Wow! He's still so dang handsome, too!
He does look better sober. But I question his wisdom of ignoring highly nutritious plant food opting for depleted white rice instead. Folks with cancer cells multiplying in their bodies need cruciferous veggies to kill cancer. Filling up on dead white rice is not a smart choice.
@@larrymaloney877 Dr McDougall recommends brown rice over white rice. He is not opposed to cruciferous vegetables either. Check out some of his wife's recipes. (FREE on his website) A lot of the recipes call for brown rice and green vegetables such as kale and broccoli. And she was using quinoa in the 70's before it became popular.
29:26 - He just went full Thanos.
HAHAHAHA I think everyone thought that too at that moment.
thank you of being one of the pioneers of the movement. we love you Dr McDougall. #vegan4life #plantbased4life #RAWPLANTBASED
Hi Gianna, I want to thank You so much for doing this interview with dr. John Mcdougall.

Thank you so much and you did a Great job asking Great questions so much respect for You. Mc dougall is a true and Good doctor to us all. hope this message about diet spreads everywhere. I Love You Gianna! thanks so much 😃
Awww, it was so wonderful hearing about how he met his wife and fell in love instantly! Sooo beautiful. God bless them both ❤️✨
I don’t know of anyone who can over eat on animal fat and protein. Satiety is triggered. The same can’t be said of starch based foods.
Thank you for great interview with good quality sound and light. Is it on a green screen?
Gitte Koldtoft we shoot them all on a gray backdrop
Great Energy interview ! Love Dr. Mcdougall and the lovely Gianna ! Thank you !
Wonderful interview ! We want more of those
Love this man ...beautiful interview...
Amazing interview! Thank you for sharing!
YES !!!!! LONG AWAITED !!!!!
A very good interview with Dr McDougall....thank you!
POWERFUL
McDougal and Grahm! Men ahead of their time!
Woke up to this being just posted. Dope. 😎👏🌱
Great interview,,,,,,,,,,with an absolute living legend!
1:33 Deep. You cant make someone else "happy"
I LOVE DR JOHN MCDougall M.D.. Just saying the truth. HUMANS live and thrive on a STARCH based diet.
Our ancestors did not process and mill the nutrients out of their "starch". They ate the whole grain, the starch, the bran, the germ, and the fiber, all of it. McDougall eats what is left after removing the nutrients and fiber. How dumb is that?
Masai 13:30; 31:30 fish and fish oil; 33:20 flu vaccines; 35:29 IGF-1 include soy protein
The good doctor is looking so well and hearty! YAY! Great man who works so hard to get the word out to EAT THE STARCHY PLANTS people! Works for me!
Yep, my dad and brother both died of colon cancer...my dad's doc asked us all to "quit red and processed meats," back in 1986 when he was diagnosed! So I did....but went completely to plants in 2010 when my brother died of it. At 61, I feel like I'm 31! No aches or pains, get out and walk every single day...work full time and haven't needed a sick day in over 14 years plus I donate blood pretty much every 65 days, which is like a mini check-up.
Do you mentor or coach people? Do you know anyone that does for this diet? I feel like I’m dying and could use some immediate guidance. Thank you 🙏
Great interview thank you.
Awesome interview! Thank you so much! ✌️🤓💚
Amazing content! Thank you for this education. I've had such a hard time trying to eat little to no carbs on a plant based lifestyle.🤦🏾♀️ This has helped me and now going to get the book.
On the fish, Dr. Esselstyn also say that fish produces more TMAO, which is a huge negative for the endotheliel cells than other animal proteins. Thank you for this interview!
It is a metabolite in animals that destroys the epethilial cells.
I think Cod produces the highest amount of TMAO
Excellent interview! Thank you, Gianna, you are gorgeous and so adorable 😍
Jacqueline Della-Santa thank you! 💗
39:44 intermittent fasting; 49:06 oil
He clearly is ignorant about fasting
👍Dr Mcdougall, you are straight speaking honest MD sharing the truths about good health and your healthy look is the evidence of what you are practicing - 信, 解 , 行, 證。
When you met Mary, you just fell in love with her instantly! I believe this is 緣, happened with a reason ("cause!"). It happened to many people "love at first sight". I believe this type of love shall last "until" you parted!
Keep on with your good works.
Ojh
Jessica Mendonca what is OJH?
One of my heroes
Looking great Dr. M
He really IS looking so well! Yay doc!
My favorite plant based doctor! I could never eat this way if it was not starch based!
Does "starch-based" mean depleted white rice for you? I eat whole-grain carbs for energy and cruciferous greens for nutrition. "Starch-based" doesn't define, or describe a healthy diet. Eating "starch" is like eating "protein" it means whatever you imagine. For McDougall starch is poor quality processed white rice. McDougall's strongest argument is a billion Chineses eat white rice. A billion small people is an example of why not to eat processed foods, including depleted white rice.
Larry Maloney first off, Dr. McDougall has said many times that Brown is better, but white is fine. Second, yes, I actually eat white rice daily. White rice is not depleted, just stick it into an app like cronometer and you’ll see it contains multiple B vitamins, zinc, selenium etc
@@kaylanichole5972, unfortunately, McDougall is being dishonest. White rice is so depleted of nutrients the government requires processors to "fortify" it with synthetic vitamins before it's allowed to be sold. I bet McDougall and his business buddy, Hollywood Jeff, doesn't tell you that! Unfortunately, your "app" does not detail the milling process. And anyone who follows shifty McDougall knows he's anti-vitamin, except B-12. And I prefer my B-12 minus the depleted white rice. Enjoy your depleted rice if that's your knowledge-based choice. Based on nutritional knowledge, I choose whole-grain brown, wild, and black rice, none from the southeast USA where the fields are contaminated with arsenic. Unfortunately, McDougall still espouses mid-twentieth century nutrition. Twenty-first-century nutritional science interferes with McDougall's antiquated nutritional beliefs. My loyalty is to my health, not a stubborn doctor who abuses drugs.
Larry Maloney the proof is in the pudding. You do you. I’m the healthiest I’ve ever been. I’ll continue eating my white rice.
@@kaylanichole5972, you say" I’m the healthiest I’ve ever been." That's does not reach the level of optimal health. And the reason for your health is an absence of meat & dairy and bottled oils & processed foods, not because you eat white rice. Since food volume is limited I prefer nutritious plants, not those partial plants processed by billionaires for resale to gullible consumers. Ironically, the germ from milled grains is packaged as "health food." The bran is also packaged and sold at a premium price. It's the depleted white starch that sells so cheaply. It's great for feeding a billion Chinese to prevent starvation, but I prefer healthy nutrition...not a lot, but potent. Depleted white rice does not kill cancer cells. If you prefer white rice you might try basmati, it has a nutty flavor. McDougall doesn't know this but the Chinese eat different white rice than the species sold in the USA. They are two different plants. Theirs is short-grain, and "sticky." It's easy to eat with chopsticks. With McDougall's species chopsticks don't work. But enjoy all the depleted white rice you choose. There are so many grains rice is a small part of my diet. McDougall chooses white rice to keep his diet simple hoping to attract the most customers. Wouldn't it be interesting to see a study of the relative IQ of folks who follow the various nutrition doctors? On average is there a difference? Or do we all average about the same with no statistical difference? I doubt smokers and non-smokers have the same IQ. What about meat-eaters and vegans? Each thinks the other is dumb. What is the truth?
Dr. McDougall rules.
Shout out to "Einstein the Cat" !!
Love him !
Loved watching this!!!!! Wonderful done ✅
CR7 is the proof that high protein diet is good! CR7 is 34 years old, still the physically fittest player in football who can jump highter than 2 metres in the air! he also looks very young! if you dont want to have good shaped muscles, then okay you can eat low protein diet!
Many bodybuilders look very healthy until they drop dead with 40-50 years.
Doctors: Stay away from carbs, go Keto.
Doctors: Stay away from the Keto diet. Use a plant based diet.
Who is giving the right info?
Everyone is selling. Be careful but I notice I eat fried chicken in the next day a lot of hair fall. I am lossing hair with chicken.
If you listened to it at about 36 minutes and after he gave you the answer.
Your body will answer that question ,when you see health improvements. 😊 I notice myself improving on a plant diet .
Great sound in this vid.
one Sign this man is a serious scientist. 34:48
he's able to differentiate flew vaccines from real vaccines. So many people lumps all vaccines together... not him.
same for other subjects 37:02
I love these interviews!
Dr. McDougall died in his sleep on 6/22/24. He was only 77. Wow! Did he die of a heart attack? Does anyone know? I am now having my doubts about a strict WFPB.
Sure, you are😂
He survived a stroke at 18. The stroke affect on side of his body which probably contributed to muscle loss.
@@RiDankulous I am also. Eating all that starch shortened his life in the end. He looked terrible.
@@whisper2162👍exactly, but ppl resist common sense...his diet lacked fats, which is brain food. As a doc he should've known that.
@@robynhope219 True, did you see him the last year of his life. Both he and his wife Mary looked like cancer patients. Yikes!
Thank you
Notable quote and true: 27:02 , 41:28 (aka it is better to give than to receive)
Great interview!!
I suppose everyone is different, because when I eat meat, it satiates me and I'm not hungry for a long time!!!
Wow,he looks great
This is a really simply smart diet ever that work very nice almost in everybody compare that one who always counting the calories and bloody scary about carbohidrate, Dr. McDougall is one of a life safer angel on the planet, thankyou for precious knowledge...🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙
A legend in his own lunchtime.
I disagree that a cooked starch diet is the ultimate nutrient dense diet. Vitamins and minerals are destroyed by heat. This also -- like Dr. McDougall said -- is not contested. I do however agree that the starch diet is the food for mankind NOW.
Are there any experienced coaches out there for this type diet? I can pay but I am sick and need some hand holding till I move in right direction. Thank you 🙏
I had a cat that loved watermelon
We had a cat when I grew up who went bongers for cucumber...
@@berrycarbs too bad he didn't know Midnight. They couldve made a wild fruit salad.
This doctor can't make himself more clear enough. l hear him loud and clear. Just eat potatoes, rice, corn and beans. Starch is our power foods. How simple can this be. For my health, this day forward my menu changes
Ridiculously unbalanced diet😮
I wish he allowed questions on his web site "the lounge".
