Description
The Power of Plant-Based Eating: Insights from My Conversation with Wanda Huberman As the host of the "Plant-Based Eating for Health" podcast show, I had the incredible opportunity to interview Wanda Huberman, the Executive Director of the National Health Association (NHA). Our conversation provided valuable insights into Wanda's personal journey, the mission of the NHA, and the upcoming 75th anniversary conference. Wanda's Transformative Journey Wanda shared how her journey began over three decades ago when she met her husband, who was already involved with the NHA. Through attending conferences, reading books, and engaging with experts, Wanda gradually transitioned from a conventional diet to vegetarianism and eventually embraced a fully plant-based lifestyle. Her motivation expanded beyond personal health to encompass compassion for animals and a desire to create a sustainable future. Understanding Healthy Plant-Based Eating Wanda and I delved into the topic of healthy plant-based eating, clarifying the confusion surrounding different terms associated with plant-based diets. She emphasized the importance of a whole-food, minimally processed approach, focusing on nutrient-rich plant foods. Her daily meal choices include large chopped salads, smoothies packed with greens, and simple, yet flavorful, whole-food meals. Wanda highlighted the simplicity and versatility of plant-based eating, making it accessible to everyone. The Vision of the National Health Association As the Executive Director of the NHA, Wanda expressed her vision for the organization. A primary goal is to reach a diverse audience and expand resources to educate and empower families on plant-based living. The NHA strives to promote diversity, raise awareness about animal welfare, and address environmental concerns. https://healthscience.org Tickets for the Virtual Conference https://veganvisibility.com/NHA-75-vConf
