Summary
Vegan Food Certification System
Mike introduced ThePlantBasedDiet.org as an event production company focused on community building through live in-person gatherings. He explained that the organization developed a six-pillar healthy vegan food nutritional certification system to ensure all food meets health optimization standards, as most prepared food, including plant-based options, can be harmful despite claims of being healthy. Mike directed attendees to learn more about the certification at healthyveganfood.info.
12-Step Lifestyle Medicine Program
Mike described a 12-step program combining the existing six pillars of lifestyle medicine, focused on preventing, halting, and possibly reversing non-communicable diseases by addressing habits and providing food that doesn't harm humans. He emphasized the importance of working with a board-certified lifestyle medicine doctor to effectively change habits and support healing. The program aims to eradicate non-communicable disease expression, allowing the body to heal if addressed early enough.
Plant-Based Diet Behavior Change
Mike discussed the importance of starting a plant-based diet early to improve quality of life and avoid irreversible health issues. He emphasized that while information and evidence form 20% of the process, behavior change comprises 80%, highlighting the challenge of implementing a plant-based diet. Mike explained that PlantBasedDiet.org helps with behavior change by connecting people with like-minded individuals and facilitating shared meals focused on thriving rather than just surviving.
Health Lifestyle Improvement Strategies
Mike discussed the goal of improving health and lifespan through lifestyle changes, noting that while the goal is high but attainable at about 97%, it focuses on preventable health issues rather than emergencies. He mentioned their annual health optimization cruise that takes place every winter and promotes the Six Pillars of Healthy Vegan Food and Lifestyle Medicine. Mike encouraged viewers to learn more about their events at plantbasedevents.info and emphasized the benefits of adopting healthier habits.
