I am a huge fan of Dr. McDougall. I have read several of his books and wanted to read his original work. He got it right the 1st time. The message is the same across all his work but this is the best book. It might be a con for some people because it has a ton of details in it. His later books he simplifies it. Some people need that but I love how dense and packed full this book is.

I have been following what this book recommended and I am losing weight, my ldl cholesterol has dropped a lot, but I feel much better. It's fairly easy to do. The hard part is going to restaurants but I can usually can find something to eat. Highly recommend.
Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2013
Dr. John McDougall is a brilliant physician that takes the oath he made, as a medical doctor to save lives and stop suffering, as serious as a heart attack. For it is the heart attacks and cancers, along with so many other chronic diseases that result from the standard American diet, laden heavy with animal proteins, fat, cholesterol, salt, refined sugar, highly processed food (stuff) and toxins that is killing so many fine Americans and stealing away our dear families and loved ones, for the sake of corporate greed and trillions annually, in profits.
You can read "The McDougall Plan" along with Dr. John McDougall's other informative books and also along with more books like "Preventing and Reversing Heart Disease", "The China Study", "Keep it Simple, Keep it Whole" "Tackling Diabetes" and "Eat To Live", so you can learn how to take charge of your own health and take that control away from the big food, dairy and medical industries and government agencies that are in bed with them, controlling the information that you have received since childhood, which is prepping you, like cattle for the slaughter, but for the obesity, chronic disease and surgical procedures that will line their pockets and fat bank accounts with gold, at the expense of your health and quality of your life, resulting in suffering and premature death.
Dr. John McDougall, along with other outstanding doctors, like Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Dr. Colin Campbell, Dr. Matthew Lederman, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Dean Ornish and many others, have placed themselves on the front lines of this battle to save all of mankind from the ravages of these food born and avoidable, debilitating and profitable diseases.
Ask yourself, why is the country that spends the most on research and treatment of obesity, heart disease, diabetes and cancer, also still the country that suffers the most from these diseases?
"The McDougall Plan" is packed with information that will answer many questions that you might have, about a health promoting plan for eating while loosing weight.
Dr. John McDougall makes it very clear that the prevention and cure for heart disease, diabetes and cancer exists today, as it has always been, in the form of a healthy diet of whole food plants and starches.

Great older book. Very educational! It has changed my life and I am really angry that this information has been hidden and lied about for so many decades. I've been through so much unnecessary suffering just because certain industry leaders want their money at any cost. Do yourself and your loved ones es a favor nd educate yourself, because you cannot count the on the medical industry to have your best health in their priorities. They make more money when you stay sick.

I started to change my diet to a plant based diet in the fall of 2013, much later in life than I should have.
Getting on track to recognizing the choices available and all the "bad" products available in the marketplace has not been too difficult. It was a bit of a "What the Heck will I eat" when I started but easily resolved with recognizing that the learning curve was not that dramatic.

Then along came the recommendation to look into The McDougall Plan leading to the purchase of a number of his older books. This particular book has been in the hands of my wife, I haven't had the chance to look through it yet. I've eaten some of the fine recipes but the problem comes from the wife's love of the book and desire to share (give it away) with others.

Do I recommend this book to others, definitely. Especially to family and friends ... or my wife's likely to give you her copy and have me order a few more copies. So help a fella out, buy a copy.

The book is interesting. I am not sold of the hypothesis that carbs are the right answer to dieting.

This is an older book but I really loved the information. I have already read The China Study and viewed Forks over Knives. My family has been doing a vegan diet for 5 months now. This book has some good recipes and very interesting information/research about the relationship of diet and a whole host of diseases. This is an essential read for heart patients and their loved ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dr McDougall - and the rest
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 6, 2010
Dr McDougall is a rare beast in a world awash with dietary counsel and self-appointed experts. He is an awesome and lucid scientist. Courageous and intrepid too, because whether his views meet with approval or sanction, he brooks no compromise in expressing what he knows and believes to be correct. Not one of my patients has failed to derive help and assistance from his work. Highly recommended. Dr Georges S. Kaye.
