Sun 25 Aug 2019
Whole-food Plant Based (WFPB) eating continues to grow both in credibility and popularity. Earlier this year, Canada released an
updated Food Guide - the first major update in over 12 years. With a strong focus on plant-based eating, at the expense of meat and dairy, Canadians are now receiving very different advice towards what constitutes an optimal diet. It also sets a precedent for other countries to update their dietary guidelines in line with the most current evidence-base.
Plant Based Health Australia is the brain-child of Dr Malcolm Mackay and Jenny Cameron. Its aim is to promote and support whole foods plant-based nutrition in Australia. Jenny and Malcolm are both qualified nutritionists (Deakin University) and have completed the reputable Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate from
eCornell .
Malcolm is also a practising GP and Board Certified Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner. Jenny is also a qualified wellness coach.
During this seminar, there will be an informative discussion on the why and how of WFPB nutrition, including evidence-based principles for achieving peak health through diet. It provides a good overview for those new to a plant-based diet or to those already plant-based who are trying to optimise their health through diet.
The main topics covered include:
- Basic principles of whole food plant-based nutrition
- What the research shows
- Health benefits of a whole foods plant-based diet
- Weight management
- Transition tips: Shopping and label reading, Cooking tips
- Making it work
- Q&A
A whole-food plant-based lunch will be served. Places are limited to a maximum of 16 people.
A further seminar will run in Beechworth, Victoria, on Sunday 20th October. Registrations open late July.
