Many people ask why oil is not included in the McDougall Program. In this short video, Dr. Lim explains that oil is heavily processed with all of its fiber and nutrients stripped away, leaving liquid fat behind. Oil is the most calorie-dense food product available today.
Dr. Lim also discusses the importance of knowing what your triggers are when indulging in rich foods. For some it may be oil and salt, for others it may be sugar. During the 12-Day McDougall Program, Dr. Lim gives a popular live lecture on behavioral change and how knowing yourself is the key to bring about real changes in long-term behavior. |
