Plant-Based Eating: Living a Vegan Lifestyle

Presented by Marla Ablon RDN, LD

The presentation begins by describing various eating styles and expanding on current trends. The presentation then covers the evidence-based health benefits of a plant-based diet based upon data from some of the foremost researchers as well as the more conservative dietary groups.

In addition to the many health benefits, living cruelty free and protecting the environment are briefly discussed. Lastly, the presentation covers the more practical side of meeting nutrient needs while busting some common myths, and ends with simple changes to get you started, plus a typical day’s intake when eating plant-based.
