Dr McDougall has shown time and time again that a starch based vegetarian diet is incredibly health promoting but the media seems to constantly ignore what he says. If I was him I'd be flipping out right now. Never make assumptions. You'll end up being an A**, and the UMP will TION you. -- Coach Smiley -- Fresh Prince of Bel Air

I did find this part that almost kinda works: Quote: Quote: I'd eat them with a side of starch--not whole grains, either--and I picked around any vegetables. Seriously, I ate like a three-year-old. I figured I was doomed unless I did something drastic. That's when I decided to give up beef and pork. At first, I did it all wrong, replacing my hot dogs with pasta, my bacon with muffins, and my salami with more pasta. Friends would joke that I was a "starchatarian And then later in the article they refer to "starchatarian" which reminded me of her specifically noting that she was a "starchatarian" and not eating whole grains. Bit of a stretch but it's kinda there between the lines. --Deb R
