The Starch Solution with Dr. John McDougall

While I’ve written previously about Dr. John McDougall’s book, The Starch Solution, I am frequently asked by people interested in my Slender For Life™ weight loss hypnosis program if I really do mean starch.  Yes, I really do! You see, all large populations of trim, healthy people, throughout verifiable human history, have obtained the bulk of their calories from starch. While easily providing the abundance of calories needed for winning marathons, starches do not promote excess weight gain. That is because the human body efficiently regulates carbohydrates from starches, burning them off, rather than storing them, when consumed in excess. How effective is our body’s regulation?  Obesity has been unknown among billions of Asians with a wide variety of activity levels who have followed traditional diets based on rice.

The Starch Solution

This truth is simple and is, therefore, easy to explain. You must eat to live. But the choice of what you eat is yours. There is an individual, specific diet that best supports the health, function, and longevity of each and every animal. The proper diet for human beings is based on starches. The more rice, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and beans you eat, the trimmer and healthier you will be — and with those same food choices you will help save the Planet Earth too.

A switch back to the kind of diet followed by most people who have ever walked this earth would have enormous and widespread benefits. The Starch Solution could prevent more deaths in one year than have been prevented by all the antibiotics, diabetic pills, cholesterol-lowering statins, and blood pressure pills prescribed over the past half century.  Not one case of type-2 diabetes has ever been cured with insulin, nor has any patient with coronary artery disease been cured by heart surgery; yet a switch to a starch-based diet has been proven to stop and reverse these as well as most other chronic diseases.  The net toll on human lives saved in the first decade of implementing the Starch Solution would be greater than the lives lost by all wars fought in the 20th century in Western countries.

Read The Starch Solution

Dr. McDougall notes that dietary change can be terrifying. Having been raised on a dairy farm eating the rich American diet, I know that the thought of giving up meat and dairy was unimaginable for me. “If I can’t have cheese, I’ll have nothing to eat,” I thought. Then, I discovered the power of hypnosis and saw how it supported me with weight loss. I soon lost all desire to eat dairy and meat products and gave up my Diet Coke for water. 14 years ago I lost 110 pounds following John McDougall’s starch-based eating strategy and I have kept it off thanks to plant-based eating, exercise and self-hypnosis.  One of the many benefits of eating this way is that I have never felt that I was on a diet and I have never felt deprived.

What about you? Are you ready to radically improve your health? Are you ready to lose weight? Weight loss hypnosis can work for you. Ask me how.
