在The Starch Solution演讲视频里，Dr John McDougal列举了两例治愈严重关节炎的例子，令人印象深刻。

我在他的网站上读到了下面这段话：

Painful joints can be divided into “degenerative” and “inflammatory” forms of arthritis. Osteoarthritis is the name often given to the degenerative form and can be helped by losing weight. Inflammatory forms of arthritis, like rheumatoid, Lupus, psoriatic, and ankylosing spondylitis are all very responsive to the McDougall Program. About 70% of people with rheumatoid arthritis （the most common form of inflammatory arthritis) can expect dramatic benefits, and often a cure, in less than 4 weeks of diet change.

这位卓越的医生用所谓非主流的饮食疗法行医超过45年，其间治愈了无数形形色色的富贵病和顽疾，从未遭到过任何病人的投诉，这在美国算是奇迹。

他的program在网上有免费的，也可以去买些他的书来读。
