Plant Centered Living
Plant centered eating combines fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, seeds, and nuts into a health-promoting and delicious way of eating that improves one’s personal health, places less strain on our precious natural resources, and contributes to a more equal and just world in which all living beings are revered. A plant centered lifestyle is much more than just a way of eating. It is a way of being. It reflects who you are and what you believe. Plant centered living makes intuitive sense. It is based on sound science, is sustainable over time, and ultimately, leads you to become a healthier and happier person.
Respect Your Body
Plant foods provide our bodies with the optimal nutrition needed to achieve and sustain vibrant physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. The body has zero need for animal products (meat, dairy, eggs, poultry, fish) at any point during the lifespan.
Love The Animals
We need to expand our circle of compassion to include all animals—the ones we share our homes with and the ones that we have been indoctrinated to believe are food. Animals do not exist for humans to eat. Animals exist for themselves.
Protect Mother Earth
Animal agriculture is the world’s single largest contributor to global warming. Feeding grains to animals we deem to be food is a vastly inefficient method of obtaining calories—calories that come with a price tag of increased risk of disease and environmental destruction.
