The Centers for Disease Control reports that 1 in 7 adults in the United States has chronic kidney disease (CKD), and only 10% of those people are aware of their condition. How did we get to this point, and how can we get out of it? Join Plant Powered Metro New York and Alchemy Space Salon for this inspiring conversation with Dr. Shivam Joshi, a nephrologist and internist affiliated with NYU and Bellevue Hospital’s Plant-Based Lifestyle Medicine Program, about the role of plant-based nutrition in the development and treatment of CKD.

Participants will be invited to contribute to a whole food, plant-based potluck dinner.
