Vola: Mushroom cloud had me smiling to myself for real!
NOTE: We are updating and reorganizing the forums. This is the place to learn about the McDougall program and get support in following the program.

(3) the fact that he flat out says that he and the establishment were wrong - for years
(4) his description of the effects of chronic inflammation (which was new to me).
I agree that the dietary fat recommendations are different but other than that everything else seems to be strikingly similar.
I have never met two people who agree on everything (much less two doctors), so I guess the difference did not bother me as much as it seems to have bothered you. When I read the article, I saw a strong endorsement that what you are doing can help you cure your heart disease.
So, I hope no offense was taken. I actually thought the article would be encouraging. I am very new to discussion boards like this, and I will remember in the future to be a little more thorough when posting.
Congratulations again on your successes!
P.S. My personal experience is that Dr. McDougall is right on the total amount dietary fat issue also.

And I don't know why it seems weird to me to NOT want to wrap my phone in the flesh on another creature. My family and friends would all be horrified if I bought a dog skin phone cover, so why did cows and pigs have to lose the species lottery?
