The potato is so maligned that one guy ate only potatoes for 60 days. The result is that he lost weight and had other health benefits too. Dr. John McDougall has been teaching and writing about the many weight loss and health benefits of potatoes for years. There are communities of people around the world where potatoes are their primary staple food that live long, healthy, and disease free lives. Potatoes provide an excellent source of nutrition and are naturally perfect for weight loss. Can’t imagine eating a potato that’s not fried or topped with butter, sour cream, cheese and or fatty gravy? Slender For Life™ hypnosis for weight loss clients discover that vegetables and whole grains can be prepared healthy and taste exquisite! You can lose weight and eat potatoes. Let weight loss hypnosis help you.
Head of Potato Group Ends All-potato Diet
After 60 days, Chris Voigt’s great potato crusade has come to an end. The head of the Washington State Potato Commission ended his highly publicized, spud-only diet lighter by 21 pounds.
Voigt started the diet October 1 to publicize his opposition to federal proposals to bar or limit potatoes in some government food programs. Potatoes are the only vegetable not allowed for purchase under the federal Women, Infants and Children program. “If we are successful in convincing U.S. Department of Agriculture to put potatoes in the programs, then I’d call it a 100 percent success,” Voigt said of his diet.
Voigt and his family celebrated a potato-only Thanksgiving, consisting of five pounds of mashed spuds shaped into a turkey, basted with olive oil and broiled. No word on how the “tur-tato” tasted, but Voigt told Reuters “it was tender.” What impact did the diet have on Voigt’s health? He said his weight dropped from 197 pounds to 176 pounds and his cholesterol level fell 67 points. His doctor was shocked, Voigt said.

Hi Roger Hope all is good with you.
I had seen your potato article many times and can vouch for it’s accuracy. I have lived exclusively on microwave mashed potatoes with their skins for well over a year without any apparent issues.
During that period my potato diet has cured lifelong GERD a thing no doctor had achieved, and I can now sleep both laying down and without a bucket as lifelong companion.
I had always felt bloated and unable to digest my food after quite small meals but this has gone potatoes I find are easily digested. I literally am eating once a day, only three to four potatoes, occasionally with a little soy sauce as a small treat. I feel fitter, stronger, the pain and leg aches of walking are cured. I believe it has also improved my epilepsy.
I find also I can walk around the cathedrals of food excess, without being tempted by the glossy wrapped food that I suspect contains many poisons.
I brought my limited diet on myself because although I have no job I am heavily in debt for using my credit card to sponsor the sick and hungry, but what a great result to be able to sleep at all let alone laying down. People think I’m crazy because while they spend money on food, alcohol and smoking I literally give mine away.
I would be happy to do it again since I have regained my health and it has even given me other spin off effects including a clarity of thinking I never before had, happiness, even contentment.
I realise now how much we are under the control of consumerism (see “They Live” DVD) since I feel their chains have been taken away, and I see immediately their control messages. I also realise that we are capable of continuing happily on markedly less than we are advised.
Mind you I may still find the sight of a Woman holding an Apple Crumble makes me feel a little dizzy! LOL
Thanks Roger for sharing, have a great weekend.
Namaste
