[@darcey55]

I’m only 44, but just 2 years ago I felt as though my body was literally falling apart and I would never make it another 20 years, let alone another 40 or more. Now, just 18 months after starting The Starch Solution, I feel better than I did at age 18; I feel better than I probably have my entire life! I’ve lost all excess 75lbs that I thought I could never lose and no longer have symptoms like constant headaches and heartburn, along with other issues. Thank you Dr. McDougall! I’m so grateful for his brutal honesty.

[@janetbrowning6602]

So many people had him as a father figure type doctor- someone to look up to. A role model. I found myself weeping when I heard of his passing. My deepest sympathy to the MacDougall family.🎉🎉🎉❤

Why green and "yellow" vegetables rather than green and red? Red bell peppers have the most vitamin c iirc compared to yellow/green and tomatoes, another red food has lycopene in it. What is any good about yellow? Also you can find stone milled whole wheat flour that is less processed compared to this modern flour and that's probably fine I imagine but I do stick to eating grains in their whole form such as Farro, steel cut oats, and Barley and eat them just as I would a bowl of rice, easy form of incredibly healthy starch.
