What Are the Challenges of a Plant-Based Diet? | Mastering Diabetes | Dr. John McDougall

What is the number one challenge of a plant-based diet? Dr. John McDougall has a straightforward answer: misinformation.

The challenges of starting a plant-based lifestyle include some anxiety due to confusion. People get confused because the individuals who are debating over dietary guidelines are the nutrition experts themselves. You have studies coming up with data showing how a high fat-low carb or high protein diet can improve your health. And on the opposite side, you have other experts backed by almost 100 years of evidence-based science firmly promoting a low-fat whole food plant-based diet.

But don't give up that 30 day vegan challenge just yet. Don't drop the whole foods for your diabetes either. Whether you're just trying to lose weight and stay healthy or reclaiming your metabolic health using food as medicine, you're on the right track. You must be one of those individuals Dr. McDougall talks about. According to him people are starting to discover that they do have control over their health.

Check out this video for what he says about nutrition misinformation.

John McDougall, MD, is a physician, speaker, and best-selling author who teaches the importance of a whole food, starch-based diet in order to halt, reverse and heal chronic disease.

Dr. McDougall is co-founder of the McDougall Program alongside his wife, Mary McDougall – the original whole-food plant-based vegan and creator of thousands of low fat, oil-free, vegan recipes.

The McDougall Program is a leading medical program that heals chronic illness through professional medical care, world-class education, and ongoing support for people transitioning to a starch-based lifestyle. (Bio from: www.drmcdougall.com)
