John McDougall, MD
American physician, founder of
Dr. McDougall's
Health and Medical Center (plant-based diets to prevent and treat
degenerative diseases)
(1947 - )
“It is no coincidence that the same diet that helps prevent or cure diabetes also causes effortless weight loss, lowers cholesterol and triglycerides, cleans out the arteries, and returns the body to excellent function. But no matter how much research appears saying the same thing over and over again, the tide is unlikely to change because of the economic incentives for the medical establishment of continued illness and profitable treatments.”
“Open heart-surgery is radical. Eating oatmeal and potatoes is not radical.”
