A Whole Food, Plant-based diet (WFPBD) is centered around whole, unrefined or minimally refined tubers, starchy vegetables, whole grains and legumes with the addition of non-starchy vegetables and fruit. It excludes or minimises animal-based foods such as meat (including chicken and fish), dairy products and eggs as well as highly processed foods like flours, refined sugar and added free oils (including olive oil, coconut oil, etc.).We share the views and follow the research of WFPB experts such as Prof. T Colin Campbell, Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Michael Greger and Dietitian Jeff Novick among others.Interest in the WFPB lifestyle is growing exponentially in South Africa, with an increasing number of health professionals incorporating this way of eating into their practice. Adopting a WFPBD is the most significant contribution we as individuals can make to the ethical, environmental and food sustainability concerns of the world while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preserving our incredible planet for future generations.
