VSU TO PRESENT ‘THE FAT VEGAN FOR THE WESTERN DIET’
On Tuesday, Oct. 23 at 6 p.m., the Vegetarian Society of Utah is presenting “The Fat Vegan for the Western Diet: A DVD presentation” by John McDougall, M.D. The event will be held at the St. George Community Building, 245 N. 200 West in St. George.
Whether you are vegan, vegetarian or just thinking about becoming one this information is crucial to your health success.
In this fast-paced informative presentation, Dr. McDougall will discuss:
• You Are What You EAT
• Dietary Change is Terrifying
• Comparison of Real and Fake Food
• Do You Really Want the Same Food?
• The Natural Human (Near) Vegan, Starch-based Diet
• The Fat Vegan
The United States is the most obese country in the world. The current rate of animal products consumption is not sustainable for our planet in the very near future.
The outcome of choosing a healthier lifestyle may differ depending whether you choose it for the sake of the animals or the environment. If you are an unhealthy or fat vegan or vegetarian, you have failed one important animal: YOURSELF!
Discover that plants provide all needed proteins, amino acids, essential fats, vitamins, and minerals (including calcium) without the inherent risks of flesh and dairy!
Learn about being a processed food junkie and your health!
