Description
@plantdietitian, Julieanna Hever, is the featured expert on the latest episode of the NHA Health Science Podcast, hosted by @DrFrankSabatino. Julieanna Hever takes listeners on an inspiring journey into the world of plant-based nutrition, unraveling the profound connections between diet, health, animal welfare, and environmental sustainability. From her teenage years, Julieanna's awakening to the transformative power of plant-based living began with the influential book "Diet for a New America" by John Robbins. This groundbreaking work not only shed light on the significant impact of dietary choices on personal health but also unveiled the far-reaching consequences of our food choices on animal welfare and the environment. Despite facing early challenges and skepticism from friends and family, Julieanna's passion for advocating plant-based living only grew stronger with time. Julieanna's educational pursuits led her to attain a master’s in nutrition, equipping her with invaluable insights into the pervasive influences of the food industry. She recognized the powerful role played by entities like the dairy and sugary cereal lobbies, which often infiltrate even within healthcare institutions. Becoming a mother marked a turning point in Julieanna's personal journey towards a plant-based lifestyle. Fueled by a deep desire to provide the best possible nutrition for her child, she delved back into research and decided to wholeheartedly embrace a plant-based diet herself. The results were nothing short of remarkable — lifelong sinus infections and persistent acne vanished, replaced by robust health and vitality. This profound personal transformation became a driving force in Julieanna's mission to spread the numerous benefits of plant-based nutrition. Today, as an esteemed advocate for plant-based nutrition and serving as the executive director at Save International, Julieanna is unwavering in her dedication to helping individuals make informed and positive dietary choices. Her commitment extends to promoting health, compassion for all living beings, and environmental sustainability through plant-based living. We invite you to join us in this enlightening conversation on the Health Science Podcast, where Julieanna Hever shares her wealth of knowledge and experiences, revealing the incredible benefits of adopting a plant-based lifestyle.
