LifeStyle Docs and PlantPure Houston hosted Michael Klaper, MD

LifeStyle Docs and PlantPure Houston hosted Michael Klaper, MD and his wife Alese for their visit to Houston, TX February 12, 2023. The day consisted of a yoga class taught by Alese, followed by a WFPB potluck and a presentation by Dr. Klaper.  In his presentation, Dr. Klaper discussed that most doctors don’t have time to talk to their patients about diet and nutrition, but they can work together with dietitians and nutritionists to help educate patients. Doctors also cannot single-handedly create community; however, as a community, we can come together to support one another.

Dr. Klaper shared how established plant-based groups such as PlantPure Houston, can help other interested individuals transition to a whole food plant based and introduce them to the pillars of lifestyle medicine at the same time. As a group, we support each other to maintain this lifestyle and through this support the plant-based lifestyle can become self-supporting. One take-away from

Dr. Klaper’s presentation is echoed in the new PlantPure Communities documentary (https://plantpurecommunities.org/from-food-to-freedom-film/) and that is the importance of joining a group of like-minded individuals as you begin the transition into a healthy lifestyle .
