Jim O. doesn't take any meds and has no need to see the doctor anymore.

Jim has been following the McDougall program for 12 years. In 2010 his cholesterol was 221 and he knew he needed to take action. After reading McDougall books, he and his wife experienced positive results and decided to attend an in person program in Santa Rosa. Over the years they have continued to attend McDougall events and recently Jim attended the 12-Day McDougall Program. 

Eating a starch-based diet has not only brought down his cholesterol, over the last 12 years he has had no health issues and takes no medications. He is able to enjoy playing with his grandchildren free from pain or chronic health issues.
