Someone said veggies are unhealthy? 🚩
Science—and common sense—says otherwise.
A plant-based diet supports long-term health and lowers disease risk.

Your most important valentine? Your heart. ❤️
This Heart Health Month, take care of it with plants.
Fruits, veggies, beans, & whole grains support lower cholesterol, better blood flow, & stronger arteries.
Your heart will thank you.

Good news for science: Sustained physician advocacy and public engagement are helping push research toward modern, human-based approaches. OHSU’s vote is an important step in that direction.

The new Dietary Guidelines are a mixed bag. It’s great to see more emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and limiting saturated fat—but they still promote meat and dairy, which are the top sources of that very same fat.
We can do better.

Dr. Carrie Walters helped change history. Her voice and conviction played a critical role in ending cruel animal experiments, and her legacy continues to inspire the work we do.
Your gut and lungs are connected. I talked with the American Lung Association about how a plant-based diet can support both for better health!
We are grateful for you. With your support, we are saving animals, advancing humane science, and helping people take control of their health.
I published an opinion article in The Mac Weekly, Macalester College’s student newspaper, about why the college should stop using animals in its psychology labs. Please read it and, if you’d like, share your comments at the end of the article.

🎃 Dairy is scary—and not just for Halloween.
It's linked to heart disease, diabetes, and cancer and affects people with lactose intolerance—which is most of the global population.
The good news? Soy, oat, and almond milk taste great—without the health risks.

As a physician, I’m concerned when we lump all “ultra-processed” foods together. Not all are harmful; many plant-based ones are actually linked to lower diabetes risk. The real issue isn’t processing; it’s what we’re processing.

Macalester College is still using and killing live animals in the psychology classroom, in experiments that have been stopped by leading universities like Yale, Stanford, and Princeton.
Ultraprocessed foods are everywhere — and they're making us sick! These industrially processed foods are being linked to 32 different diseases, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, cancer, and depression.
Our research studies find that when people are given basic information about how a diet change can help, along with modest support, such as a meeting with a dietitian and weekly classes, they find that a dietary rethink is easy, empowering, and often life-changing.
There is no reason to wait. We can protect our health, our planet, and the animals we share it with by leaving them off the plate.
Beyond its environmental payoff, a vegan diet is the diet of choice for reducing the risk of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
