We are excited to tell you about the launch of a new textbook co-edited by sisters Zahra and Shireen Kassam and their colleague and friend, registered dietitian Lisa Simon.
Plant-Based Nutrition in Clinical Practice is an evidence-based, edited book aimed at health professionals and provides an up-to-date review of the uses, benefits and practical application of a plant-based diet in clinical practice, taking both a holistic and a systems-based approach.

This book contains chapters that cover the abundant evidence for the beneficial impact of plant-based nutrition on the chronic diseases of our time, its impact at all stages of life, the barriers and strategies for behaviour change, and the growth of the evidence-based specialty of Lifestyle Medicine. The book concludes with a chapter on how our food system is in fact a central driver of our current planetary health crises, with root causes that are common to our health crisis, and how a shift to plant-based nutrition can help mitigate them.
You can take a look inside the book here.
How wonderful to start this conversation on plant based nutrition. Much needed. Lots of luck
