Dr. John McDougall - Health and Healing on a Starch-Based Diet

This episode originally aired July 7, 2022. We reshare it today as a tribute to his work and legacy.
Dr. John McDougall was drawn to medicine because of his own health “fate.” At 18, he suffered a massive stroke and was an anomaly to the doctors in Michigan who wanted to explore “why” and “how” this could happen to someone so young.
This health scare inspired his own journey to become a doctor, which eventually led McDougall and his wife, Mary, to Hawaii to practice medicine on a sugar plantation in Hawaii and service over 5,000 residents. What he saw there changed the course of his medical practice forever.
The healthiest people on the island, the first-generation elders who had come from China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines, were the healthiest and most vibrant people…still active, with no medications, and still in bodies fit for movement. It was their children and grandchildren, however, those second and third generations, that were struggling.
Why? They had adopted a western diet of meat, dairy, and processed foods.
The secret, Dr. McDougall discovered, was STARCH. Those healthy islanders subsisted on a diet comprised mostly of rice, potatoes, vegetables, and fruits and THAT inspired the work he does today through his McDougall programs and education.
Beyond diet, the McDougalls are also dedicated to informing citizens about the positive effects of dietary therapy on chronic disease and our Planet. Animal agriculture, as we’re learning, is also one of the main culprits contributing to climate change and we discuss all of his “four deadly dietary deceptions” outlined at mcdougallfoundation.org (www.mcdougallfoundation.org/) .
It’s an inspiring conversation from one of the legends and it was an honor to sit down with Dr. John McDougall.

Thanks for honoring Dr Mcdougall. I was disappointed that not many were addressing his passing. He helped so many people and deserves the tribute. May he rest in peace and live on in our hearts. He did so much on earth. God must have decided his work here on earth is done and said come on home John. ❤ My condolences to his friends, family and our plant based community, we lost a good one.

McDougall attacked other plant-based health doctors, so don't expect them to speak about McDougall. Those doctors are being respectful with silence! McDougall wrote his book, "The Starch Solution," promoting depleted white rice-which he copied from Kempner, who used white rice in the 1950s to sustain dying kidney patients. As healthy as white potatoes are, they are also starches. Sweet potatoes are much more nutritious. Even then, throw in several daily servings of greens-raw or steamed-because starch is not known for nutrients. McDougall stated -"as much as 90% starch." He used the word "starch" religiously, not upgrading to "whole grains." And when his diet was referred to as whole food, plant-based," he corrected, reinforcing his approach as "starch-based." McDougall failed to differentiate between removing animal flesh & fluid, bottled oils, and processed carbs as removing harmful food prevents disease with plant food's benefits. Each is its own subject. Folks did not "get healthy" from eating depleted rice & potatoes. The health improvement directly resulted from removing animal flesh, bottled oils, and processed carbs. The food we add back to replace the missing /removed foods highly affects our future well-being, ultimate health, and even longevity. Even then, we shortchange our chances of a healthy, long life without hard work or equivalent exercise.

I had no idea Dr McDougall lived in Santa Rosa when the Tubbs fire happened. I also live in Santa Rosa and my family also lost their home in 2017. Today it's close to 100 and will be in the high 90s and low 100s for the next 6 days. I've lived here for 50 years and the temperatures continue to get warmer and warmer every year. This is a very heavy animal agriculture area. It saddens me every day to see that nothing has changed here since the fires. No real education as to how to prevent such catastrophes in the future. The majority of citizens here are pro animal agriculture even after experiencing horrific devastating fires and rising temps. Dr. McDougall said it, it feels hopeless because of human inertia. I'm grateful for the strong willed individuals like Dr. McDougall who never gave up. He was a gift and his legacy will continue on. Thank you Rip for replaying this conversation.🙏

Thank you Rip Esselstyn for posting this beautiful tribute to Dr. John McDougall and your interview with him. He was an amazing man and I am heartbroken over his loss. The one thing that became so evident to me in your interview is Dr. McDougall's comment that information about the health benefits of plant based eating has been around since the 1920's. It has been out there but the mainstream is not listening. I have never been an activist but am thinking it is time to carry on his torch. But how does this information get to the general public? Many changes in society start with laws. Additional enlightenment comes through education. Other ways is through the press- publicity spreads information quickly. Dr. McDougall, Dr.. Caldwell Esselstyn, you and the Esselstyn family, Dr. Dean Ornish, Dr. Michael Greger, Dr. Colin Campbell, PCRM all have been promotinng this way of eating for years. Yet it is still not mainstream. The Surgeon General has an impact on the nation. Cigarette smoking was eventually reduced significantly in this country after the surgeon general brought it to light. The Surgeon General recently declared gun violance as a major health issue in our nation. Certainly it is. However, what about our eating habits as a nation? Other than making the changes for ourselves, what is the best way to spread this information in a positive, normal and impactful way to carry on what Dr. McDougall began?

Like many, I am filled with sorrow over the premature passing of a giant, perhaps one of the initial 'foragers', to build this _fringe_ community of whole food plant-based folks who have adopted this dietary regimen - our natural human diet based upon our easily recognizable biology. Some know what Dr. John meant when he said: "The fat you eat is the fat you wear". However, of the 10 sayings mentioned here, Rip, that is not fully accurate. There are loads of good fats if eaten moderately such as nuts, seeds, *whole* coconut, and avocado. Blessings for what you, and your family, have done and keep doing.

@rabeascholz1390 11 күн бұрын

Dr. McDougall also said that most people can't do moderation, though, and was critical towards eating nuts. I vividly remember him saying there was a reason they came in a hard shell, and that the coconut had the hardest shell of them all.

@jageo48 11 күн бұрын

@@rabeascholz1390 True, John said that; however, in the saying, truth is not found. I shouldn't work white oak and lignum vitae as a woodworker, because they're so hard; I should stick to pine and spruce. HUH!? We're also told by others, that squirrels bury their nuts so as to ferment them. Yeah and some turn into trees. Good science is peer-reviewed, not anecdotal and not stated by experts, the lowest on the gold-standard rung. Didn't we all have 'nuff of that during the past 4 years?! No one person however well-intentioned, is the sole repository of truth. To follow anyone as hero, and I am not saying anything negative about John, as I have followed him for 15 years diligently, is to as Sadghuru states, "To concretize something you likely no little 'bout".

John had a great and rich life with a great family and friends, even if he as a young adult suffered some injuries. He was able to turn things around and prolonged his life a lot due to healthy foods. It’s not how many years you live, it’s the life quality and health during the years that you get that is the only thing that counts. Here John is a winner. Living another 10 or 20 years with poor health is not an option.
