Our mission is to bring awareness to the long-neglected reality that diet is a powerful player for saving the planet from the ravages of manmade climate change.
To offer our 45 years of experience helping thousands of people restore their personal health, to teach the practical application of a planet-saving diet; first to individuals, and then to populations worldwide.
John, a medical student, met Mary, a surgical nurse, in a hospital operating room in 1971. This once-in-a-lifetime cosmic collision set into motion the McDougall Program. Contrary to the standard practice of medicine, the McDougall Program focuses on food as therapy.
