Easy Guide for Incorporating Plant-Based Foods


The Daily Dozen is an easy strategy for incorporating more plant-based foods in your diet…

Dr. Michael Greger’s Daily Dozen is a practical approach for uncovering powerful foods for enhancing health and preventing disease.

Using a simple checklist, the Daily Dozen takes away the confusion of healthy eating. It’s a great way to think about daily food groups and will help you incorporate some of the healthiest foods into your daily meals. Simply check the items off the list and you’ll be on your way to a healthier and more satisfying diet.

The plan maximizes fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while minimizing meat, dairy, and processed foods. Some plants have particular nutrients that aren’t found elsewhere, so superfoods are a priority on this list. The Daily Dozen also includes a healthy dose of daily exercise.
