Past Food Vitals Webinars

Cardiovascular disease, prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction are common health issues that affect men. Can a greater focus on nutrition help men to avoid or manage these conditions?

This Food Vitals webinar explores how a whole food, plant-based lifestyle can help prevent, manage, and reverse many common lifestyle-related diseases and improve quality of life. Dr Luke Wilson delves into key conditions that affect men, how they develop and how these are linked with poor nutrition. 

A panel discussion explores how GPs and other health professionals can support their male patients to prevent and even reverse many of the common health conditions affecting men through diet and lifestyle changes.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:

• Describe how nutrition contributes to the development of common men’s health conditions.
• Identify at least three features of an eating pattern that can be beneficial for improving men’s physical and mental health.
• List tools and techniques to support men to transition to a whole food plant-based diet.
