This all volunteer group is centered around evidence-based research that shows the incredible health benefits of a whole food, plant-based diet (WFPB) low in fat, salt and sugar without added oils. This includes studies and publications by physicians and researchers such as Drs. Dean Ornish, Caldwell Esselstyn, T. Colin Campbell, Neal Barnard, John McDougall and others, that have demonstrated a WFPB diet to slow down, stop or in some cases reverse chronic disease.
Our group strives to empower all who want to optimize their health by providing community meetings and events, discussion of the science, sharing of WFPB food, and camaraderie on the journey. Food, Friends, Science and Support! Join us!
