AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM AUTHOR JOHN ROBBINS:
When it comes to food and your health, the stakes are rising exponentially. If there’s ever been a time when we need to stay informed and take a stand, it’s right now.
We keep hearing how rates of obesity and diabetes are on the rise, and not just in the U.S. but worldwide. For the first time in U.S. history, we are spending three-quarters of our healthcare dollars on managing chronic disease, instead of preventing it.
We hear that climate change is causing increasing weather chaos. Yet, there’s a kind of paralysis among government and corporations about solutions, even though industrial agriculture contributes more toward greenhouse gasses than all forms of transportation combined.
Incredible, isn’t it? To make matters worse, the average doctor isn’t educated on the connection between food and health; billions of dollars in ads try to hook our kids on eating crap; and dangerous fad diets are keeping people frustrated, overweight and unhealthy.
It’s time to rise up and demand change! This is why we’ve created this virtual summit. We want to bring the most up-to-date research and information to you about food, nutrition, disease prevention and environmental stewardship. So you can get involved and do your part to be the change.
I’ve hand-picked every expert we’ve invited to be a part of this summit. I’ve read their books and articles, checked out their research, and decided the exact questions I want to ask in order to get to the heart of their specific expertise.
How does participation work? In the Food Revolution Summit, I conducted 25 highly focused 30-45 minute interviews with our brilliant panel of experts. More than 160,000 people participated, and the response was extraordinary. So now, all of these interviews are being shared and replayed over time. When you sign up, you'll gain access and be updated on how you can get it all.
What if you missed a presentation you want to get? No problem. There are recordings, transcripts, and many other resources that are available as part of an optional upgrade package.
So please join us in demanding access to healthy food and a healthy environment for everyone! Invite your friends and family to the 2015 Food Revolution Summit.
I promise you’ll feel inspired, empowered and informed!
John Robbins,
Co-founder and Co-host
