[QUOTE="Jinzang, post: 56116, member: 12925"] Nathan Pritikin first pioneered the low fat, whole food, mostly vegetarian diet on the theory that Third World peoples eating a similar diet had very low rates of heart disease. Since then there's been a good deal of research on the diet. [URL="https://www.drmcdougall.com/misc/2014nl/oct/cohort.htm"]Dr. McDougall's study[/URL] on all the patients attending his ten day program showed the attendees lost weight, reduced their cholesterol, blood pressure, and 90% either reduced or eliminated their blood pressure or diabetic medications. Dr. Greger bangs the drum for a similar diet on his [URL="http://nutritionfacts.org/"]nutritionfacts.org[/URL] site and shows the evidence diet can control [URL="http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-not-to-die-from-high-blood-pressure/"]high blood pressure[/URL] and [URL="http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-not-to-die-from-diabetes/"]diabetes[/URL]. The reason why these diets are not more widely used is, first, doctors are not educated in nutrition and its benefits and, second, compliance to the diet can be difficult. No one wants to give up their cheese steak sub and Coke. [/QUOTE]
