About Me – For optimal listing appearance, please limit this info to one or two paragraphs.: My husband and I read the China Study in 2010 and immediately put down the book and cleaned out our kitchen! The evidence is overwhelming that a Whole-Food, Plant-Based diet is the healthiest way to eat and live. We have been WFPB ever since and are raising our kids that way as well. The more I’ve learned over the last few years, the more I am convinced that poor nutrition is at the root of the vast majority of medical problems. I find myself talking about nutrition at just about every patient visit! I have recently started a shared medical appointment for adults and kids interested in learning more about WFPB nutrition and the associated health benefits. I am so excited to be bringing this knowledge to the world of pediatrics! Children can grow and thrive and prevent a world of health problems by adopting a WFPB lifestyle right from the start!
