Sugar: Adding Pleasure to the Satisfaction of Starches ~ Dr. John McDougall
I thought that John McDougall’s article, Sugar: Adding Pleasure to the Satisfaction of Starches was important to post in follow-up to Tuesday’s post, Is Sugar Toxic with Dr. Sanjay Gupta. Dr. McDougall says that “Uncontrollable cravings are caused by the Western diet’s deficiency of healthy sugars. People chew through platefuls of sugar (carbohydrate)-free beef, pork, [...]
Protect Thyroid With Produce
The more produce that you eat, the more that you are doing to protect your thyroid from cancer. For years now, doctors like John McDougall, Neal Barnard, T.

On Thursday, my blog post will feature an article from Dr. John McDougall offering a different view point suggesting that sugar can be used adding pleasure to the satisfaction of starches. Personally, I think that John McDougall’s perspective is right [...]

Diet, Drugs, and Diabetes with Dr. John McDougall

Reversed Diabetes by Eating Potatoes
This is not the first person that I have heard of that reversed diabetes by eating potatoes. There are so many misconceptions about potatoes.
