Initially hesitant to share this, I realised that life is too short not to celebrate others, even in their absence. Perhaps someone could benefit from this tribute.

In my journey as a Plant-Based Health and Wellness Coach for less than two years, the most significant revelation has been achieving remission from the lifestyle diseases I once had. This transformation would not have been possible without listening to Dr. John McDougall. I am grateful for the internet, through which I discovered the power of plants from him and other dedicated plant-based doctors who tirelessly advocated for the health benefits of plant-based diets.

The challenges Dr. McDougall faced in proving the healing abilities of plants to the medical community inspire me to continue advocating for plant-based healing, despite facing skepticism. Witnessing my clients heal reinforces my belief in this path, knowing that it is embraced by those who are open to trying something different for positive outcomes.

I recall Dr. McDougall’s words, emphasising that extreme is not about only eating plants but extreme is actually resorting to go under the knife for conditions that can be managed through dietary changes.

Thank you, Dr. McDougall, for your enduring dedication to spreading a consistent message over the decades. Your legacy of healing continues to impact lives, even reaching Kenya.

With hope and gratitude,
