The founder of The McDougall Plan for healthy living, has been studying and writing about the effects of nutrition on disease for over 30 years.

Dr. John McDougall believes that people should look and feel great, and enjoy optimal health for a lifetime. He has developed a nourishing, low-fat, starch-based diet that not only promotes a broad range of dramatic and lasting health benefits such as weight (fat) loss, but most importantly can also reverse serious illness, such as heart disease, without drugs.
