x-Post: Plant Powered Book Club: The Future of Nutrition

December 8, 2021 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

REGISTER: https://bit.ly/3omcRPL

This fall, join Plant-Powered Metro New York in reading renowned nutrition scientist T. Colin Campbell’s latest book, The Future of Nutrition: An Insider’s Look at the Science, Why We Keep Getting It Wrong, and How to Start Getting It Right. In this thought-provoking book, Dr. Campbell takes on the institution of nutrition itself: the history of how we got locked into focusing on “disease care” over health care; the widespread impact of our reverence of animal protein on our interpretation of scientific evidence; the way even well-meaning organizations can limit what science is and is not taken seriously; and what we can do to ensure the future of nutrition is different than its past.

As this is a lengthy book, you’re invited to read it throughout the fall and then gather virtually in early December to discuss how the findings impact our health, our communities, and the practice of science itself.

Please note that this is a book group discussion and will not include a report on the contents of the book. Those who have not read any of the book will find less value in the discussion than those who read at least some if not all of it.

This monthly series is facilitated by Lynn Diamond, PPMNY’s Associate Network Director & Director of Community Education.

Event access is by donation or free to anyone unable to contribute. Please choose the option that fits you best and join us!

Registrants will receive a Zoom link on the day of the event.
