John A. McDougall, MD, has coauthored bestsellers with his wife, Mary, and is featured in the documentary and book Forks Over Knives. In The Starch Solution, he disputes the notion that starch is bad for you.
The diet is based on this principle: fueling your body with carbohydrates—such as rice and potatoes rather than proteins and fats—helps you lose weight and prevents a variety of illnesses. He grounds this in scientific fact, providing a 7-Day Quick Start Plan and 100 great recipes to change your diet. There are testimonials from people who have lost over 125 pounds, as well as patients who have conquered diabetes and cardiac ailments.
This groundbreaking plan has opened the door to good health for thousands—and it can for you.

After reading the starch solution, I was excited to start on Dr. McDougall's plan. Within 2 weeks I lost 7 pounds. I was so enthusiastic about the book that I borrowed other McDougall books from the library and joined his web forums. I highly recommend this book for anyone that wants to drop weight and stay satiated. I also recommend it to any women that want to alleviate PMS symptoms, as my PMS symptoms have subsided by following this low fat, starch/plant based diet.
