Change Your Diet, Change Your Life

Almost everyone I know has a young person at home (son, daughter, grandson or granddaughter) who has gone vegan (or better, on a whole plant lifestyle). This is usually a result of one or more of the following:

• An understanding of the health benefits of a whole plant diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans/nuts/legumes)
• Interest in high performance athletics
• A love for animals
• A knowledge of the environmental impact of eating meat

“If you are not eating meat, dairy products, or eggs, are you getting enough protein?”

You might be surprised to learn that the answer is a resounding YES, an answer backed up by mountains of scientific evidence. In fact, a fast-growing number of nutrition experts and doctors recognize that, “Healthy eating may be best achieved with a whole plant diet.… Research shows that whole plant diets are cost-effective, low-risk interventions that may lower body-mass index, blood pressure, [diabetes risk], and cholesterol levels. They may also reduce the number of medications needed to treat chronic diseases and lower ischemic heart disease mortality rates.”*

If you are interested in losing weight, increasing your energy, and learning about this life-changing way to eat, consider signing up for GreenFare’s 10-day organic, whole-plant-food nutritional program called 10 Day Quickstart, developed by the Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM).
