Whole food, plant-based nutrition is changing people's health across the country. Studies consistently show that eating mostly whole grains, legumes, fruits, and vegetables can both prevent diseases and treat them — and for some people even reverse their conditions altogether.
We’ll show you how achievable it is to adopt this lifestyle through our intensive Plant Powered Jumpstart experience. Lasting anywhere from 10 days to a full month, jumpstarts are designed to support a cohort of people in successfully making a complete dietary transition, building skills and healthy habits for life. |
