[QUOTE="tjlab, post: 56120, member: 12349"] I totally understand what you are saying and I agree that diet can help, at some level, control blood pressure and diabetes. There are many factors that go into diabetes and blood pressure...stress, hormones and genetics that clearly predispose and accelerate the disease process. A cheese steak sub and coke once or twice a week will not make the majority of people have diabetes or high blood pressure, but for some it could help it a long because of genetics, hormones and stress levels. Many autoimmune diseases are linked to diabetes, high blood pressure and lipid issues. So, Dr. McDougall and others like him have made a lot of money selling books and theories that work for a lot of people, but definitely not all. I personally don't appreciate the content of anyone's statements when someone uses a "blanket one size fits all" theory to anything...because that statement, when it comes to health, is 100% not true. Like Leesto and Vince have stated the low carb diet has helped them with lipid and diabetes...this goes 100% against the McDougall diet. Just from 2 testimonies based off experience, the McDougall diet or any diet doesn't help everyone.
