Are Plant Foods and Health Equity Related?
Episode description
Fact: Poor diet increases the likelihood of developing of certain chronic health issues. Another fact: Marginalized communities around the world do not have adequate access to whole plant foods and minimally processed ingredients. Coincidence? Nope. In fact, this intersection is precisely what plant-based nutritionist Rohini Bajekal aims to address through her work. Rohini discusses why certain chronic health issues disproportionately affect people of color, the role of diet in treating these issues, and next steps for making plant-based education more accessible. // Follow Rohini on Instagram at @rohinibajekal.
