Monday, March 3, 2008 "Vegan Health & Nutrition" Today on Go Vegan Texas! Featuring our guest Dr. John A. McDougall "The food you put into your body is the single most powerful factor that determines your health and well-being." - from the Introduction of Digestive Tune-up John A. McDougall is a physician and nutrition expert who teaches better health through vegetarian cuisine. He has been studying, writing and "speaking out" about the effects of nutrition on disease for over 30 years.

He believes that people should look, feel great and enjoy optimal health for a lifetime. A graduate of Michigan State University's College of Human Medicine, he performed his internship at Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, and his medical residency at the University of Hawaii. He is certified as an internist by the Board of Internal Medicine and the National Board of Medical Examiners. As with many leaders of public opinion, he often finds it necessary to challenge the accepted wisdom of the time, and was one of the first traditional physicians of the medical "establishment" to assert that adoption of a vegetarian diet can reverse unfavorable medical conditions such as heart disease. Dr. McDougall is the founder and medical director of the nationally renowned McDougall Program, a ten-day, residential program located at a luxury resort in Santa

Rosa, CA -- a place where medical miracles occur through proper diet and lifestyle changes. He is the author of several national bestsellers and he will speak to us today about his newest book, Digestive Tune-up. Dr. McDougall's New Book Digestive Tune-up Quotes from Digestive Tune-up "As I learned more about nutrition and began incorporating this age-old wisdom into my own eating habits, it became clear to me that diet was indeed

the foundation for good health. I quickly began feeling better. The digestive problems that had tormented me since childhood became a thing of the past." - page 3 "Dietary fiber speeds transition of the food and slows absorption of calories, aiding in weight loss and helping prevent diabetes." - page 80 "A healthful, low-fat, no cholesterol diet may slow the growth of cancer and allow a person to live a longer, healthier life." - page 116 "Given the clear link between cow's milk and constipation, and in light of the distressing effects on constipation on children, government subsidized and sanctioned milk programs should be discontinued from schools nationwide" - page 75 Dr. McDougall's "Total Health Solution for the 21st Century" DVD Set Dr. McDougall's book and DVD set are available as Premium Gifts today during our Fund Drive show!
