| On September 2, 2020, we completed our very first online course. Today marks the completion of our second successful course! Participants from both programs received much more than they expected. Here are just a few highlights of what participants told us they appreciated most from 12-Days to Dynamic Health: The chance to have a “table-side” seat with Dr. John and Mary McDougall every morning during the course. My parents are thrilled to have the opportunity to get to know and spend time with everyone and answer all of their questions every day. Such a great way to start the day! All questions answered first thing in the morning in a fun and relaxed way. You really created a wonderful sense of community! I will dearly miss my mornings with all of you! -Candida John McDougall, MD presents four of his most important lectures live. Armed with over 45 years of research, Dr. McDougall strives to educate and help you understand about the diseases plaguing our society and the critical steps needed to achieve success for your long term health. Anthony Lim, MD, JD, Medical Director of the McDougall Program, comes into your home (virtually) for three planned medical visits. Dr. Lim performs a thorough evaluation and offers a clear plan to help you achieve your future health goals. One of the many advantages telehealth offers is the flexibility to meet more frequently, should you need more time.* Your online visits provide an excellent opportunity for you to work side-by-side with your physician towards a mutually agreed-upon treatment plan, rather than one dictated to you by a physician who does not take your wishes into account. Nutrition, fitness and psychology: A complete and comprehensive education. Jeff Novick, MS, RDN, lectures on several important nutritional topics distilling the often complicated science into easy to understand principles. Not only is Jeff a passionate educator, his straight-forward and entertaining approach helps you apply these principles into your daily life. His live cooking demonstration shows you how easy healthy cooking really can be, and he is always willing to answer your questions during our afternoon chats.** Jack Dixon, NSCA, CPT, has over 26 years working as a personal trainer and has been certified by the American Council on Exercise, as a Lifestyle and Weight Management Consultant, The National Academy of Sports Medicine, The American Academy of Fitness Professionals as a Post-Rehab Conditioning Association, The National Strength and Conditioning Association and as a Certified Ergonomic Assessment Specialist and Ergonomist at Kaiser Hospital in Santa Rosa. Jack lectures on functional fitness and also shows you how to easily implement exercise into your daily life.** Doug Lisle, PhD, has 30 years of clinical experience which helped in co-developing a revolutionary method for approaching life challenges and improving self-confidence and self-esteem. Dr. Lisle’s lectures will help you understand the hidden forces that undermine your health and happiness and give you the tools to live the life you deserve.** Personalized support for each participant. In order to address your individual needs, you will have a dedicated Support Specialist who has had anywhere from five to 20 years’ experience working and training under Dr. McDougall and our team of experts. Even before the 12-days begin, your Support Specialist will send you information on what to expect during the course and how to prepare yourself in the kitchen, as well as answer all of your questions to help you succeed at home. Every morning, during the program, you will meet with your personal Support Specialist to not only report blood pressure, weight and/or blood glucose numbers, but to check on your general well-being. Each member of the McDougall Team, including my parents, Dr. John and Mary McDougall, are now able to spend far more personal time with you online than compared to the past with our in-person programs. We feel this new way of interacting is as fortunate for us, the McDougall Team, as it is for you, a valued McDougall participant and life-long friend. |
