Our goal is to raise awareness of the dramatic impact of diet on personal and global health. We celebrate the extraordinary benefits of delicious Whole Food Plant-Based Cooking and Eating for Optimum Health and Weight for people of all ages. A Plant-Based diet provides all nutrients for active living. It consists of whole grains, vegetables, fruits and beans. It excludes all animal protein (meat, poultry, fish, eggs, cheese, milk) refined grains and added oils while limiting sugar and salt.
