About book The Starch Solution: Eat The Foods You Love, Regain Your Health, And Lose The Weight For Good! (2012)

I've been a fan of what Dr. McDougall has to say for a long time and have listened to some of his podcasts, watched his videos and read some of his articles, but this is the first book of his I've read. He really lays out the knowledge in an easy to understand way here. I love his laid back style (he's from Hawaii, so maybe it's the island influence) about nutrition. It's a common sense, "no big deal" point of view that resonated with me. He gives the facts and lays the groundwork for a very healthy diet. Lots of crossover with the "Forks Over Knives" diet, which makes sense because he consulted with the filmmakers and appeared in the movie. Highly recommend! I reluctantly agreed to try the Starch Solution when my doctor recommended it... I never, ever, ever voluntarily ate vegetables until I was well into adulthood. With much dismay, I discovered that I NEVER felt better than I do following this lifestyle plan. And I am even more pleased that the McDougall's believe in what the preach so much that they've made it available, without cost, to everyone on their website. Bravo to them, to everyone who follows them and even to me for climbing on board :)
