Life Lessons and Hot Topics | Dr. McDougall & Chef AJ 

I have to wonder how did he die. Only strokes and heart attacks and things like aneurysms cause sudden death. He did the video on why did Steve Jobs die. I hope his family will tell us how he died. May he RIP.🙏🏻🙏🏻

@@whisper2162 He probably had some damage from the lacunar stroke he had at age 18. Strokes such as that typically shorten lifespan by 30%. I frankly think it's incredible that he lived as long as he did, a testament to his diet.

@@peter5.056 You may be right. Do you think w/o the stroke, he could have possibly made it to 100? Mary McD also has that same weak / frail look. It will be interesting to see how long she actually lives.

So agree. I am a McDougall girl all the way and have been for decades. Much Thanks for this wonderful, smart, caring physician who had lots of influence. RIP and love to his family in this sad time.

Yes, I life very will lived. He and his family have touched so many lives over the years. My sincere condolences to the family.

I would just add to emphasize fruits and greens over grains and processed carbs. Humans are frugivores imo.

Ditto. Truly the Great Doctor!

Look I went plant based and didnt know how to eat properly,I found Dr John and I follow what he says. He was right, about the food,it makes a difference!

I really applaud you and agree that this man is wonderful and very rare in the medical profession I m really doing my best but finding it so difficult when my family won’t consider eating this way…. People just don’t realize how much food matters with health

This episode spontaneously popped up in my RU-vid feed this morning. ❤

I agree his words at 30 min - I feel as if he had knowledge that he was going to pass relatively soon! Was he hiding a cancer? Especially with how skinny he has gotten. I hope he didn’t suffer and that his legacy continues. He has changed my life and I am grateful

Listening again too!❤

Same here. Listening after doctor McDougall died. What a great man!!!!

I did too! I never even me thim...so wish I had. 😢

I am still in shock😢 , I listened to him pretty much everysunday

I think his advice was really solid but I believe people are frugivores and should emphasize fruit over starch and plenty of greens. Grains and refined carbs are sad is forming and contribute to dis-ease imo.

I believe humans are naturally frugivorous and should emphasize fruits and greens especially over things like grains and processed carbs.

sxuse me! INternational treasure you mean!

Well said. He is missed 😭

Since the 80's for me too. Huge loss, huge grief.

Do you know Robert Morse nd or 80/10/10?

Right on!! 🎉

I would add on to his advice to emphasize fruit and greens intake. Grains and processed carbs cause inflammation though probably less than animal products imo.

Ditto. Dr McDougall healed my husband, as he did thousands of others whom he never met. And will continue to do so long after he is gone. Forever grateful 💚🙏

Do you know 80/10/10? I also highly recommend Robert Morse nd

@@Doood692 Yes a low fat diet is highly beneficial. That was part of what saved me.

He said in the vid that he took the shot. It has been known to cause excess inflammation. I would also add to his advice to emphasize fruits and greens over grains and refined carbs.

Check out 80/10/10 and Robert Morse nd if you haven’t already. God bless

If it is not released I think we all know why.

@@deva190why?

No we don't know why?​@@deva190

His heart may have given out in his older age. The stroke from when he was a huge meat eater at 18 and stress from other things like his house burning down probably did not help. I would emphasize fruit and veg intake over grains and processed carbs however. I’m not even sure that the carbonated water he liked doesn’t contribute to an acidic body and dis-ease.

I’m sure you would like Robert Morse nd and there is also 80/10/10

I highly recommend you check out 80/10/10 and Robert Morse nd as well

He’s not dead

@@Awaken218yes he is

@@JohnJohn-dy6ll When?

@@JohnJohn-dy6ll Oh man I just saw it. That’s so sad

That is wonderful!! I’m 62 yo woman trying to make this change for a healthier life for my last half 🙂 I’m at a normal weight but coming from the low carb world; which has not been doing well for me lately! What will starches do to my triglycerides? Can we do mostly potatoes and beans? I’m not big fan of veggies. Thank you, keep up the great work and God bless!!❣️🙏

@@Ranch-girl Hello, thank you ❣️ Let me encourage you that your taste changes over eventually and veggies end up being so delicious you can not even believe it! Truth! And keep in mind that your plate should have balance. Pick one starch and add veggies. Example, pick a potatoes and add veggies. Or pick rice and add veggies. Or pick beans and add veggies. Or pick corn on the cob and veggies. So the idea is pick your starch choice for that meal and add veggies. I eat a smoothie once a day too. My body always does well with some fruit smoothie once a day or at least 4 - 5 times per week. I drink water at meals and between meals. I sometimes make oatmeal cookies with chef AJ's recipes. I also use Dr. McDougall's cookbooks. Once in a while you might have 2 starches together, like beans and corn when making burritos, or soups. But mainly just usually one starch on the plate along with veggies or salad and add applesauce on the side or part of a grapefruit or some canned no sugar peaches, etc.. at one meal per day. My smoothies are only 1/2 to 3/4 cup full per day. I enjoy nuts and seeds on my salads and sometimes a dash of nutritional yeast. I never feel it's boring eating like this and often, yes often marvel at how many starch and vegetable choices there are! I take no medicines and my blood pressure is spot on. I'm not losing weight anymore, my initial 25 lbs I lost 6 years ago is not any less 6 years later. But my weight isn't a yo yo which is great and I feel good and I am healthy. I decided that considering all that, I can't ask for more! I hope you hang in there till your taste buds thank you on the veggies! God bless you!

@@susanfromthemountains1754 I really do appreciate your feedback, that is amazing! You have really encouraged me and I will push through the initial changes! It will be worth it in the long run!! You are truly a great example!! ❣️

Same story here . I am 70 and thriving. I am so happy eating this way

@@Ranch-girl This diet brought my triglycerides down when nothing else would.

> Today is the first day of me trying the McDougall Diet. Good luck! I eat rice almost every day, but I prefer potato. Baked. Vegan cheese and broccoli. I'm pretty sedentary, so potato gives me almost too much energy.

All that food gives me gas. I eat 2 pounds of beef a day. 2500 calories. 140 grams of protein and 140 of fat for the brain.
