Moderation does not work for changing life-destroying habits. A cigarette smoker never quits by cutting down.

Alcoholics do not sober up by switching to beer or wine. You must treat food poisoning with the same

good or evil, right or wrong,

go or stop, green or red

attitude as you would treat drug addiction.

Forget about being reasonable, sensible, prudent, or moderate.

You Can’t!

You Must Fix the Food

Just Say “NO”

To foods that are poisoning you and your family.

The McDougall Diet

The truth is simple and easy to understand:

The McDougall Diet is based on starches with vegetables and fruits.

The McDougall Diet does not contain any animal foods or vegetable oils.

The McDougall Diet may contain some

salt, sugar, and/or spice.

Text Box 4-1

Text Box 4-2

Starches

Starches are plant parts that store large amounts of energy for daily activities. They are very low in fat with no cholesterol. They are rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals. Starches are essential to satisfy your appetite and they make you trim, strong, and healthy. Eat starch!

Text Box 5-1

Text Box 5-2

Non-Starchy Vegetables

These plant parts provide interest, color, flavor, and some important nutrition (vitamins A and C). They are insufficient in calories to provide for daily energy needs. They should be side dishes only.

You must eat a starch-based diet!

Text Box 6-1

Text Box 6-2

Fruits

Fruits are mostly simple sugar with some vitamins and minerals. They provide a flavorful (sweet) addition to meals. However, appetite satisfaction is minimal. Generally, 1 to 4 fruits daily is a good goal. You must eat a starch-based diet!

Text Box 7-1

Text Box 7-2

Not Food!

All animal products are full of cholesterol, animal protein and fat; with no starch, dietary fiber, or other essential sugars for health. They are infiltrated with big doses of people-poisoning environmental chemicals and loads of infection-causing bacteria, parasites, and viruses.

Text Box 8-1

Text Box 8-2

People Are Sick from Eating Like Kings & Queens

Historical writings and pictures tell how wealthy people who ate meat, poultry, fish, cheese, milk, etc. became fat and sick.

The difference is that now billions of people, because of “progress” (the industrial revolution and the harnessing of fossil fuels), eat like the aristocrats of the past.

What else would you expect from eating all these rich foods? Served at Burger King & Dairy Queen (McDonalds, Taco Bell, KFC, all restaurants, groceries, etc.)

and/or go away.

Again: Food poisoning is primarily caused by eating

animal foods and vegetable oils.

Text Box 17-3

Text Box 17-4

Benefits Happen Quickly

Within 24 hours expect relief of constipation, indigestion, GERD, oily skin, fatigue, etc. to begin. Within 7 days expect:3.5 pound (1.5 Kg) weight loss.

(if starting overweight)22 mg/dl (0.6 IU) reduction in total cholesterol.8/4 mmHg reduction in blood pressure.

(and BP medications are often stopped)Arthritis is greatly improved.

In most cases medications for hypertension, type-2 diabetes, indigestion, etc. can be stopped (Under doctors’ supervision, of course).

Within 4 months most chronic problems from food poisoning are a matter of history.

This is a cost-free, side-effect-free treatment.

One of the Earliest Controlled “Scientific” Trials

of the McDougall Diet

A Bible story 2600 years ago: Daniel and his men, eating vegetables, were compared to men eating animal foods (like most Americans do now). At the end of the ten days the vegetarians looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food.

Gladiators Were the “Barley Men”

Strength and endurance come from eating starches. Think about the warriors of the past and the long distance runners of today: They are powered by starches. Winners never eat much meat, poultry, dairy, etc.

False Advertising in order to Sell Dangerous Foods

The meat industries say you must eattheir products for protein…

The dairy industries say their products are necessary for calcium…

“Omega-3 fats” and fish comes to mind, immediately…

The truth is that protein and calcium deficiencies have never been reportedon any natural diet sufficient in calories...

and only plants can make omega-3 fats.No fish or other animal can make them.

Vitamins, minerals, and other plant nutrients are essential for health, but you must get them in their natural packages. Isolated concentrated nutrients found in pills increase your risk of death, heart disease, and cancer.

The only exception is vitamin B12.

Do Not Take Supplements

Text Box 62-2

Text Box 62-1

The risk of a B12 deficiency disease is extremely small (1 in a million) and takes more than 3 years to develop.

To avoid even small risks, take this supplement. The need is fewer than 5 micrograms (mcg) daily.

However, the smallest doses sold in stores are 500 mcg. Likely, no side effects occur from the excess. Once a week is adequate.

Do Take Vitamin B12

If not to save yourself and your family, how about saving planet Earth?

The livestock industries are producingover half of the global warming gasses.

The meat, poultry, egg, dairy, and fish industries are major unregulated polluters of the environment.

Fortunately, we can stop this overnight. Say “No” to food poisoning!

Instead, eat beans, bread, corn, pasta, potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, etc.
