McDougall Program

Whole Foods Market offered a chance for 300 team members to go to a second round of health immersion programs in support of one of our new core values - Healthy Eating Education (I don't have the exact verbage in front of me right now, I'll update later) and I jumped at the chance to go. I had heard of Dr. McDougall's program in the past but it was financially out of reach for me, I hadn't realized that Dr. McDougall offers his program for free on his website. I also really felt like I needed to break away from home to focus and get well, I was also worried that 10 days would not be enough. It was and I want to share the information I learned while I was there as well as my successes (or failures) as I go along. The program is amazing and I, along with most of the other participants have seen significant improvements in their health in as little as ten days, seriously! I do think that doing the program on your own without the corresponding education at the program might prove to be difficult. Dr. McDougall and his team are really convincing and have the science and research to back it up. So, here we go... my story and trip back to health, I hope you don't find it too dry!
