"Dr. John McDougall is the dean of medical practitioners in nutrition-centered medicine because of his incredible accomplishments, knowledge, and courage to stand up for what he believes. Thousands of his patients know him as an icon. When you read this book, you will too." -- T. Colin Campbell, PhD, coauthor of The China Study, "Dr. John McDougall is the dean of medical practitioners in nutrition-centered medicine because of his incredible accomplishments, knowledge, and courage to stand up for what he believes. Thousands of his patients know him as an icon. When you read this book, you will too."-T. Colin Campbell, PhD, coauthor of The China Study, "John McDougall, MD, has once again produced an outstanding book with recommendations gleaned from his decades of medical experience and strongly supported by the scientific literature. The information in this book can provide the reader the power needed to lose weight and regain health." --Alan Goldhamer, DC, director of TrueNorth Health Center and coauthor of The Pleasure Trap "I personally know many people who have found the McDougall program to be the key to vastly improved health for themselves and their families. This book lays it out clearly and without compromise." --John Robbins, author of No Happy Cows, The Food Revolution, and Diet for a New America "This time the Star McDougaller is John himself, joining with Mary in creating a masterfully crafted nutrition guide that destroys harmful myths and enhances the enduring capacity of whole food plant-based nutrition as the foundation to our long overdue health revolution." --Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, author of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease "'Eat all you want; any time you want.' Statements that sound too good to be true usually are . . . too good to be true. But The Starch Solution, richly referenced for science, but gracefully written for consumers, just might be both good and true." --George D. Lundberg, MD, editor-at-large of MedPage Today "Great news! Thank you, John! Now we can eat carbs guilt-free and maintain our figures." --Elizabeth Kucinich, director of public affairs for the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) "John McDougall has done it again. This time, clarifying the issue of starches and the important role they play in human nutrition, improving our health and the health of the planet." --Jeff Novick, RD, vice president for Executive Health Exams International and lecturer at the McDougall Program "I love the book. It should be required reading for all medical students and doctors." --Craig McDougall, MD, internal medicine specialist at the McDougall Program "The option is pretty simple. Meat and potatoes and later angioplasty and bypass or a plant-based (starch diet) and procedure-less and medicine-less health and happiness. This book shows the way. It is highly recommended." --William C. Roberts, MD, editor-in-chief of The American Journal of Cardiology and executive director of the Baylor Cardiovascular Institute of Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas "Dr. John McDougall is on a mission to make us healthier. Read The Starch Solution . It may save your life and your brain." --Dennis Bourdette, MD, chairman of the department of neurology at Oregon Health & Science University " The Starch Solution is an easy and powerful way to achieve the very best of health. Dr. McDougall's unparalleled knowledge and experience have brought us the best possible way to help people lose weight, lower their cholesterol and blood pressure, boost their energy, and change their lives." --Neal Barnard, MD, founder and president of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) "You'll be doing the happy dance when you read this book! Hallelujah, and bring on the pasta!" --Kathy Freston, author of The Veganist, Dr. John McDougall is the dean of medical practitioners in nutrition-centered medicine because of his incredible accomplishments, knowledge, and courage to stand up for what he believes. Thousands of his patients know him as an icon. When you read this book, you will too.

    I was very impressed with the shipping speed! After I purchased it, it came within a couple of days. It was packed well, so the glass jar stayed intact. The seller was honest that the candle had been burned once, so it came as described in the listing. Because of that they were willing to negotiate the price, so the value was great for a candle that has a scent that I love! Thanks for a wonderful transaction. I appreciate it.
