Nutrition and health is very important to me so when I heard a lot about this book I knew I had to read it. The starch solution is about only eating fruits, vegetables, and eating a lot of potato's, beans, rice, lentils, bread, and any thing else that is considered a starch. I really have been liking this book a lot because I've learned a much better inside on why eating a plant-based diet is so much healthier rather than eating the regular western American diet. On page 26 it explains the pros of eating this way when Dr. McDougal says, "a starch-based diet, on the other hand, brings radiant health along with the loss of excess body fat. Endurance athletes know the benefits of 'carbo loading'. In addition to enabling peak performance, a starch-based diet improves blood flow to all tissues in the body." (page 26) He goes in more on all of the benefits and treating your body this way is amazing because you get all of the nutrients that you are needing. I can't wait for the next upcoming blog and more about how healthy and amazing it feels eating this way.
I know that eating this way in my opinion actually works, and if you stick to more whole foods and less junk, then you won't have the desire to crave all of those unwanted needs. I never have the urge to eat chips, ice cream, and cake, because my body is getting filled up with all the nutrients that it needs. It makes me feel more happy that I eat this way, because I can eat as much as i want to and I don't have to worry about junk being put into my body. I wish more people knew about this lifestyle so that they didn't have to restrict the amount of calories that their eating. When you eat only fruits, vegetables, and starches you feel so much energy inside of you. The Dr. McDougal book has been amazing and such a great read to get a better understanding of the things that my body needs and the things I need to eliminate.
