THE PLANTPOWER WAY

Rich Roll and His wife, Julie Piatt’s new book…”The Plantpower Way“
A plant-based cookbook and lifestyle guide
Just want people to make better choices
Everyone can agree that it is better to eat more greens

VEGAN VS. PALEO

There is a happy medium between the two
We are the most prosperous country and also the sickest
1 out of 3 Americans will die of heart disease and diabetes.
Obesity is a national disaster

WELLNESS AND HEALTH

Eating well is more affordable than people think, regardless of socioeconomic condition
People tend to see wellness as elitist, that it’s not for the masses
That prevailing notion is not true
It takes more work…it certainly is easier to just pick up fast foods

INDUSTRIALIZED STATE OF ANIMAL AGRICULTURE

The way we raise animals is broken
There is huge water waste, environmental implications, land use
Not a vegan issue…then how do we raise them?
Grass-fed beef is expensive. Also looked on as elitist
