Nourishing Families with Plant-Powered Nutrition

Join Spark Your Health, in collaboration with Plant Powered Metro New York, for a conversation between Nourish co-authors, Brenda Davis and Dr. Reshma Shah on the impacts of a plant-based diet on growing children. Families are increasingly interested in plant-based diets for a variety of reasons, including health, environmental, and ethical considerations, but parents often wonder whether such a diet is safe for their growing children. This discussion will dig deeper into the safety and benefits of plant-based diets for children, the specific nutrients that are important for children that are eating a plant-based diet, and how to foster enjoyment and decrease stress at the dinner table. Whether your family is looking to just dabble in occasional plant-based meals or take on a change in diet completely, this conversation will be sure to address your questions and inspire a pause and reflection on eating habits and how subtle changes can make a big impact.
