Food as Medicine? Sign Us Up!

Penn Vegan Society, with the help of SPEC, is bringing celebrated biochemist (B.F.D.) T. Colin Campbell to speak at Penn tomorrow. Dr. Campbell, recently featured in the award-winning documentary PLANEAT, has devoted much of his research and advocacy efforts to the long-term benefits of eating well.

If you’re well-versed in the field of biochemistry and nutritional sciences, they invite you to a “specialist” talk at the TRC-Rubinstein Auditorium, which if you had to Google where that was like we just did, you’re probably not invited. The general public (you!) is invited to hear Dr. Campbell at Irvine beginning at 7:30. According the the PVS, “The purpose of this event is to provide the biochemical and medical basis for plant-based diets.” So prepare to be converted! Also, free food in Irvine beforehand! (Daiya cheese, anyone?)
