"We’re told things are genetic, but we have also inherited dietary patterns and so things that seem inevitable aren’t always inevitable"
If you are thinking about transitioning to plant-based, but haven't been able to take those first steps then this episode is for you! Today I welcome Erin, who has only been plant-based for a month, she is a newbie like so many of you out there listening. Her family enjoyed and celebrated a meat centric diet for a long time. But after a recent visit to the doctor, she found out that her and her husband's cholesterol was dangerously high. In order to avoid the same fate as family members on both sides, she dove head first into nutrition research and has transitioned her whole family onto a plant-based diet. Erin's enthusiasm is infectious and I can't wait to hear how many people she is about to inspire!
