Our Vision
PlantPure Houston (PPH) envisions communities free of illness, and people living their best lives, through the widespread adoption of whole food, plant-based (WFPB) nutrition. Each person has the tools and support systems they need to take charge of their health with the food they eat.
Mission
PPH empowers people to find better health and overcome chronic disease through whole food, plant-based nutrition. We offer evidence-based education, resources, and support to create community and inspire change throughout the Houston area.
Our community-driven movement connects individuals, groups, and organizations in a strong network advancing the power of a healthy, plant-based lifestyle. Together, we:
- Raise awareness about the dramatic health benefits of WFPB nutrition.
- Build supportive communities that empower people to make lifestyle changes.
- Organize and lead projects that spark changes to food policy, practice, and culture.
Values
- Evidence-Based Emphasis on Whole Plant Foods: We champion the evidence-based research that a diet rich in whole plant foods is ideal for our best health.
- Respect for each individual journey: We recognize that everyone starts at a different place and will move at different speeds on their path to greater health.
- Gentle motivation: We model health-promoting behaviors, teach new skills, and share the powerful evidence and stories of WFPB nutrition’s impact to encourage personal change.
- Supportive relationships: We make lifestyle change possible and easier through a foundation of trust and a network of community support.
- Personal empowerment: We believe that just one empowered person or group can have a positive impact on an entire community’s health.
- Strength through diversity: We connect to the cultures and beliefs of diverse communities by building a movement that includes people and leaders from many backgrounds.
Who is PlantPure Houston?
PlantPure Houston is people of all ages, stages, and backgrounds. Some of us found whole-food, plant-based nutrition after reading a book, watching a documentary, or seeing the transformation of friends or family members. Others have had the privilege to learn from one of the pioneering physicians who are healing with food, and every day new doctors and health practitioners are incorporating the principles of plant-based nutrition into their practices.
We are seven independent PlantPure Communities Pods serving the Houston Area that have come together to better serve our members. Contact us or one of our Pods today.
This movement is for everyone across the globe. Right here, in the Houston area, we are raising the banner for health and healing through plants.
