The town of Mercersburg, Pennsylvania tries The Engine 2 Diet (vegan, low-fat plant-based diet) for 28 days. 

People on the Engine 2 diet lost an average of 9.5 pounds, and more than half of them lowered their LDL (i.e., “bad”) cholesterol levels by more than 20 percent—and some lowered their cholesterol by as much as 40 percent. As Dr. George points out, that’s a bigger reduction than what’s usually seen with people taking statins. Some people lost as much as 37 pounds in less than 30 days.

Wow! That’s impressive. And so much better for your body than fad diets or medication.

Are any of you going vegan for your new years resolution?
