International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention

An online journal sponsored by the Plantician Project, a not-for-profit corporation whose mission is “to educate, equip and empower physicians, healthcare practitioners and other healthcare influencers with knowledge about the indisputable benefits of plant-based nutrition. To provide them with the resources they, in turn, use to inform and inspire their patients and constituents to shift from the unhealthy Western diet to a life-changing, whole-food plant-based lifestyle”.

Nutrition Facts Organization

A new drug or surgical procedure has a corporate budget to make sure your doctor, and you, hear about it. Nutritional studies however have no such profit motive. As Dr. Michael Gregor, who started NutritionFacts.org, asks “when was the last time you saw an ad on television for broccoli”? This website provides a forum for the latest on amazing studies in nutrition demonstrating how simply changing the way we eat can prevent and even reverse many chronic illnesses. It is incorporated as a 501c3 nonprofit charity, is very well presented, and easy to navigate. The site allows us at no charge to view Dr. Gregor’s many up-to-date videos summarizing the latest studies.
