I adopted the Starch Solution Diet three yrs. ago: I lost 20 lbs., my cholesterol went from 273 to 176 (no meds). Sugar level was in pre-diabetic range, now normal. Since I feel satiated (not hungry, after eating potatoes, lentils, corn with veggies, as much as I want), I feel this is sustainable and long-term. One of the best things I’ve done for myself, thank you, Dr. McDougall!

@@louisepotts1806 Louise, this is a good question, as in my case, it was not immediate. First year, cholesterol went down to 210, second year plateaud (I was frustrated, but kept going, as other benefits outweighed this), then at end of third year, finally hit 176! Apparently, some people go down fast (in mths), but about 2%, go down slowly, like me. But I’m so glad I stuck with it, as my mother now has late-onset dementia (she’s 88) & a vegan diet w/ normal cholesterol levels has decreased my chances of getting it significantly (apparently 50%+).

@@sk.n.9302 , Thank you so much for your reply. I go for a cholesterol retest next Wednesday. It's only been six months for me. My original number was very close to 300. I also carry the gene for the potential early onset of dementia. I am encouraged by your story. I won't give up if my numbers haven't moved as much as I hoped in these six months. If I can achieve anything closer to 150 I would be elated. I dread having to go in a statin. 🙂

I used 5 gallon grow bags from Amazon plus one 10 gallon container. 2 seed potatoes per bag and 4 in the container. Left 2 sprouts on each potato. Layered: 4" compose, taters, 4" compost. Wait for sprouts to appear then add 4" compost and so on. I live North of Seattle and grew Red Norland, Latona (White), Russian Banana and Russet Norkotah. All have outstanding flavor. This is my first year growing and I'm surprised at the success of them all. Used G&B Organics, Harvest Supreme compost. Simple leaf compost works great too. Red Norland was most prolific.

I started eating more potatoes after watching this, and now I finally realized why I have kept them to a minimum over the years and why I usually only eat them in the evening. Potatoes set up a craving for more food. It must have something to do with blood sugar, as starch turns to glucose in the body. I get the same problem with corn and peas. I like to make a soup out of organic cooked peas or corn while they are still hot from boiling, by blending them using my Nutribullet machine. I definitely noticed a spike in blood sugar after consuming them and then an extreme blood sugar drop after about an hour or so. Consuming them with other foods does not change that, at least for me anyway. Just sayin'

[@martykerns3802]

It’s the blender. Blending anything will cause the food to be absorbed into the body’s system way faster. Hence, the hunger cycle because the stomach empties out quickly when food is blended.

The problem today is that all grains and potatoes (and other foods) are saturated in herbicides and pesticides (particularly Round up) which is causing so many of our autoimmune diseases.

In the Northern States of America, the 1800's Agricultural Census showed what the earlier people were eating and growing, Most had typical small farms with a small diversity of animals and a focus of Oats, Buckwheat, Corn and Hay for Feed. But everyone grew 1-2 acres of Potato's, and the bushels per acres are obviously much higher than the rest of what they grew. Hashbrowns and Eggs were on the Menu for sure. The first thing most poor people invested in were Chickens or a Milk Cow, than maybe a Sow to slaughter once a year. Animals were Equity in older times, no refrigerators and fresh food storage. Eggs, Milk, Butter, Cheese and limited Preserved meats like Salt Pork and Bacon, made up their animal products. Oatmeal, Buckwheat, Hominy, Cornmeal, Potatoes, Peas, Beans, and of course Bread was most of what they ate.

Fermented foods can add B12 to a diet. I make a fermented soda from sweet potatoes.

Ok. I gave up potatoes. Stayed with yams. This guy reminded me I do love potatoes. Esp potato pancakes. But I also want real butter with them. Delightful. Great info

Very interesting.. Here in Sweden for the last 3 years we have been growing about 10 or 12 varities of very colourful potatoes.. We get such a great harvest year on year.. We also save our seed potato..we also grow sweet potatoes and just about everything..there is literally zero inflation when you grow your own food and save seed..

I am a type 1 diabetic. I was diagnosed later in life (in my 30s). I liked bread and roasted potatos, but I noticed something that I could not understand. I was hungry all the time. I felt like I had a painful hole in my stomach, but as I grew older I found out that eating protein was quite satisfying. I was extremely overweight. I began to eat bacon and other meats in small amounts and I noticed that I was not hungry. I sometimes forgot to eat. Long and short, l do not tolerate high carbohydrates as they spike my glucose levels. I do eat some legumes, but any simple carbs and I am thrown into a tailspin of hunger all-day

Interesting!

@@Maxine, I’m glad you figured that out!! I think we’re all different. Genetically, I do well on both carbs AND fats. I definitely do well adding in some fats as well.
