With an overwhelming weight of evidence suggesting that plant-based eating is the way forward for both the planet and people, there are a wealth of misconceptions and unanswered questions that need to be addressed to help support not just the health of the population, but the health of the planet, too.

In The Science of Plant-Based Nutrition, leading nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert is here to equip you with everything you need to know about plant-based diets, separating fact from fiction to help you and your family understand the importance of nutrition on our health while minimizing the impact we have on the environment.

It's more important than ever to execute this way of eating correctly and to equip you all with the need-to-know nutritional basics.
