Your Health Is at a Critical Crossroads

Without action, weight and health problems follow a predictable path:

  • Excess weight increases risk of diabetes, heart disease and cancer
  • Medications multiply while underlying problems persist
  • Energy declines as health deteriorates

Most treatments manage symptoms instead of addressing root causes. Being overweight makes you sick – and staying sick keeps you overweight.

Food is medicine - when you know how to use it.

12-Day McDougall Program participants experience:

  • Significant weight loss without hunger or calorie counting
  • Relief from chronic fatigue, pain and digestive issues
  • Lower cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar
  • A complete lifestyle transformation with tools to maintain it for life

This isn’t another diet program. It’s medical intervention through nutrition that sets you up for a whole new way of living.

We Know Why Restrictive
Diets Don’t Work

For years, Dr. John McDougall watched patients struggle on restrictive diets that left them constantly hungry. His breakthrough came when he discovered that whole plant starches naturally satisfy hunger while promoting weight loss and better health.

Today, the McDougall Team, comprised of doctors, nutritionists and program experts continue his life’s work, helping patients safely transform their health through nutrition intervention.
