Going Vegetarian: A How-To Guide For Making The Change
Going vegetarian can be fun and easy! You've decided that the "whys" of vegetarianism make sense, and now you need the "hows." Dr. Michael Greger gives a lively and entertaining talk packed with practical advice on how to go vegetarian or vegan, from meal planning to nutrition to the personal and social aspects of making the transition. Whether it's for you, your loved ones, the animals, or the Earth, Dr. Greger shows how vegetarian living is now easier than ever.
Brimming with the latest research gleaned from the national vegetarian conference Summerfest, Dr. Michael Greger will be back in Hawaii to give four exciting lectures on Oahu on a variety of interesting topics. His leading edge information and unique and humorous presentation skills promise an entertaining and educational experience not to be missed.
