Updated August 26, 2022

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.
