The national nonprofit Plant-based Prevention Of Disease (P-POD) conferences provide an evidence-based look at how plant-based eating patterns and allied lifestyle measures may reduce the risks of society’s major preventable diseases. P-POD offers guidance about how nutritional advisement and lifestyle medicine, along with attention to health equity, may be integrated into the work of the entire health care team. While welcoming the public, P-POD offers accredited continuing education to a very wide variety of health professionals. P-POD accepts no funding or influence from commercial sources, and is committed to maintaining affordable event admission fees so that a broad diverse spectrum of attendees may participate.
