What is your reason for going plant-based?

  • For Health & Longevity

    Historically, the healthiest populations have eaten a predominantly plant-based diet. More and more evidence is confirming the benefits.

  • For The Environment

    Growing plants to feed to animals to feed to people uses more resources and creates more waste than simply growing plants to feed to people.

  • To Save Money

    Eat like the people in the developing world to avoid the diseases of the rich. That means more inexpensive starches (staples) and less pricey animal products.

  • For The Animals

    If slaughter houses had glass walls no one would eat meat. Let's not be a part of that horror show any more.

  • For Social Justice

    Eating kindly has the potential to address inequalities in the food system.

  • For Athletic Gains

    Some say this is the new doping. Athletes are reporting improved recovery, increased energy, and greater endurance.

Instructor Bio

Leigh Ettinger, MD, MS, FAAP, ABOM

www.DoctorHerbivore.com

Even though Dr. Leigh Ettinger has been a pediatric kidney specialist since 2004 he did not learn about whole food, plant-based nutrition until 2014. Changes in his own eating yielded great results! He started to share the scientific evidence of the health benefits of the plant-based diet with his patients, community groups, nurses, and other doctors. He earned the eCornell Certificate in Plant-based Nutrition in 2016. In 2017 he joined the staff of his hospital’s pediatric weight management program with the goal of addressing the pediatric obesity epidemic with the plant-based diet. In 2019 he became a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. In 2021 he founded the Doctor Herbivore telehealth practice, which offers personalized plant-based guidance for families throughout New York and New Jersey as well as eCourses for others. Dr. Ettinger enjoys helping families successfully change course to a plant-strong path for their health, for the animals, for social justice, and for the environment.
