Plant-Based Nutrition & Food Sustainability
Modern food production or industrial agricultural methods pose a serious threat to the environment both in the U.S. and globally through a broad range of mechanisms. In addition, and most importantly, the consumption of meat and dairy products has serious, adverse health implications for most individuals. Fortunately, recent clinical trials and interventions have shown that a higher intake of whole food, plant-based foods provides superior health outcomes and the potential for profound impact on the environment.
Utilivate’s plant-based nutrition and food sustainability service offering is of special interest to health care service providers and other organizations interested in making topical, highly actionable plant-based nutrition resources available to their employees and customers. Individuals are also keenly interested in having direct access to this critical, life-affirming information.
Utilivate provides the following informational products addressing plant-based nutrition and food sustainability for its clients:
