Protein Overload |
a |
Muscle, vitality,
strength, power, energy, vigor, aggressiveness, and liveliness are words
that come to mind when people think of the benefits of protein in their
diet. The truth is quite the opposite. Bone loss,
osteoporisis, kidney damage, kidney
stones, immune dysfunction, arthritis, cancer promotion, low-energy, and overall poor health
are the real consequences from overemphasizing protein. Protein
serves as raw material to build tissues. Without sufficient protein
from your diet, your body would be in trouble – but, aside from
starvation, this never happens. Yes, a little protein is good,
but more is not better. |

Could Mad Cow
Disease Already be Killing Thousands of Americans Every Year? |
a |
October 2001, 34-year-old
Washington State native
Peter Putnam started losing his mind. One month he was delivering a
keynote business address, the next he couldn't form a complete sentence.
Once athletic, soon he couldn't walk. Then he couldn't eat. After a brain
biopsy showed it was Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, his doctor could no longer
offer any hope. "Just take him home and love him," the doctor counseled
his family.[1,2,3] Peter's tragic death, October 2002, may
have been caused by
Mad Cow disease. |

Introductory Weekend Report |
|
Sixty people traveled – some more than 3500
miles – from as far away as
Alaska,
Georgia, and Pennsylvania – to discover the excitement of the McDougall
Program during the weekend of
January 23 to 25, 2004.
Possibly the biggest surprise for them was to have John and Mary McDougall
with them all weekend – why would the McDougalls miss the fun, the
pleasure of meeting nice people, and the great meals?
