Discover the simplest ways to eat a plant-based diet, that’s good for you and the planet 

From the Harvard Nutrition Experts...

With so many potential health benefits, it’s no wonder that the plant-based food trend continues to surge today with many people interested in cutting back on meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, and eggs. 

And with the increasing price of these foods, a diet rich in whole grains, plant proteins, fruits, vegetables, and plant fats has become a more affordable option. 

In Plant-Based Eating, you'll discover how a plant-based diet is linked with better health:

  • Want to lose weight? Plant-based eating can help you achieve and maintain a healthy body weight. 
  • Worried about dementia or cognitive decline? Plant-based eating is linked with lower risk of these concerns among adults 65 years and older.
  • Troubled by the thought of heart attack or stroke? Plant-based eating has shown promise in lowering the risk of these threats to your health.
  • Concerned about diabetes? People who eat plant-based diets have a lower risk of type 2 diabetes, and vegetarians who do develop type 2 diabetes are more likely than those who eat meat to have better control of their blood sugar. 

In the Plant-Based Eating Guide, the nutrition experts at Harvard Medical School bring you a simple action plan to help you start and stick with a plant-based diet for better health. 

It’s filled with practical tips, menu planners, recipes, research-backed insights, and so much more. For example, you’ll uncover…
