Newswise With the growing popularity of the plant-based movement, research shows that diners are increasingly requesting plant-based menu options for their personal health and the health of our planet. As a chef, restaurateur, or foodservice operator, are you showing your diners that you give a fork about what they're eating?

If your answer is no, or youre not sure how to go about it, Doc/Chef Grahams session will be enlightening. Hell discuss how restaurants and foodservice venues can demonstrate their concern for the health of their customers. Hell share his FRESH food bytes and bakers dozen food tips.

A leader in the field of Integrative Medicine, Doc/Chef Graham has prescribed food as medicine for over 10 years. He is an advisor for several food companies and organizations. In January 2020, he and his wife Julie, a certified health coach, launched an online university, FRESH MED U.

The campaign is founded on research that demonstrates Monday is the day we are most primed to start and sustain a healthy new behavior. Since its 2003 launch, Meatless Monday has become a global movement in more than 40 countries with support from governments, schools, celebrities, restaurants, and local and global organizations around the world.
