Summary of Dr. McDougall's Digestive Tune-Up

According to Dr. McDougall, constipation, hemorrhoids, ulcers, IBS, and colitis are a few of the chronic digestive disorders that can be prevented and cured by eating a low-fat, cholesterol-free, plant-based diet. The reasons for this become apparent through a series of "office visits" by two fictitious, middle-aged patients who seek medical intervention in order to regain their health.

Through these "visits" readers learn: . how their digestive system works . to identify the root causes of intestinal discomfort . why "friendly" bacteria are necessary for overall health . how to take control of the healing process . how to avoid surgical procedures & expensive medications

This book covers topics that are often taboo in common conversation with a candid, often humorous look. Easy to understand, the information covered will enable everyone to make more informed medical decisions and wiser dietary choices.
