The Starch Solution
John McDougall MD, presentation at the VegSource Healthy Lifestyle Expo 2010.
This truth is simple and is, therefore, easy to explain. You must eat to live. The human diet 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.
The Starch Solution. What is it? According to John McDougall MD, it’s the answer to many of the world’s health, hunger and environmental problems.
It’s also the title of a fascinating talk by Dr. McDougall, which we are bringing you below on video. The Starch Solution is about how the human body is adapted to eat a predominately starch-based diet, with fruits and veggies added.
In his talk Dr. McDougall shows how every large successful culture throughout history has flourished on an unprocessed, largely starch-based diet, not a meat-heavy one.
The modern widespread heavy meat diet is relatively new in history, a dangerous experiment in human health with little precedent.
