Join us for a screening of PlantWise, a documentary that focuses on the inspiring journeys of six individuals who change their lives and health by embracing a plant-based diet. Following the film will be a panel discussion featuring local healthcare practitioners.

About the film:

PlantWise follows the inspiring stories of six people struggling with debilitating health conditions caused by unhealthy dietary choices. They learn that the Standard American Diet is the culprit. High in fat, sugar, and salt. Low in fiber and nutrients. It’s wreaking havoc and creating chronic illness in much of our society. With hope, they discover this epidemic of diseases—heart disease—type 2 diabetes—obesity—high blood pressure—is largely reversible.

The solution? Each discovers the benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet and chooses to embrace it. They reverse their chronic conditions and experience a health transformation. They find renewed energy and vitality that they thought they had lost forever. PlantWise features nationally recognized experts in lifestyle medicine revealing that what we choose to eat every day often determines our health destiny. Stories and science are woven together in an inspiring message of hope!
