Are you on their forums? Have you read/listened to all the success stories? Have you connected to his partners....Jeff Novick, Chef AJ, Doug Lisle?

And of course, his teachings are aligned with Dr's. Caldwell Esselstyn, T. Colin Campbell, Dean Ornish, Neal Barnard...and many, many others that I've followed throughout the years. Have you researched them?

Thanks for posting!

No snark, seriously curious...do you have an personal physician that you see annually and trust or do you get most of your medical and nutritional information from books and studies?

I have a physician but for nutritional advice? Hellz no. Most physicians are only required to complete an extremely small amount of nutritional classes in medical school.

I love to do my own research. Once I figure out my viewpoint, I spend a lot of time reading about opposing views. I try to convince myself differently.

On the dietary front, the low fat, whole foods, plant based way of eating has been consistent throughout decades. Dr. John McDougall is one of the original pioneers that have endorsed this way of eating. Throughout the millinea, civilizations have been eating this way....it's no secret. But it's a message that needs to be repeated again & again.

Thank you for your reply. While I might not agree with you on many issues regarding health and diet, I respect the fact that you do what works for you.
