Dr. McDougall concludes his two-part lecture series on the digestive tract. In the second part, he discusses the lower GI tract, including the small and large intestine as well as the appendix. The small intestine is where all of our essential nutrients and vitamins are absorbed. The large intestine houses our gut microbiome where the good and bad bacteria act as a window into our overall health. Learn how to encourage beneficial bacterial growth with a starch-based diet to improve your overall health. 

Before the lecture, Dr. McDougall catches up with a Star McDougaller who has dealt with debilitating rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis (a form of spinal arthritis) and suffered setbacks after discontinuing the McDougall diet and is working her way back to restoring her health. She credits her recovery to Dr. McDougall's article, Diet: Only Hope for Arthritis.

"I'm most excited about getting off the one medication I didn't want to be on, in the first place. Also, my weight is now headed in the right direction." - Teresa F.
