Raising Healthy Plant-Based Children

Join pediatricians and CNS Medical Advisory Board members Drs. Leigh Ettinger and Rikin Patel on Wednesday, February 26th at 7 p.m. (ET) for an enlightening discussion about raising plant-based children. This special webinar will be hosted by the chair of CNS’s Medical Advisory Board, Dr. Michael Hollie. Doctor Ettinger has a busy New York practice offering general pediatric care as well as lifestyle medicine with a focus on plant-based nutrition for children affected by obesity. Dr. Patel is the founder of Canada’s first pediatric lifestyle medicine practice. Whether you are a parent, a grandparent, or someone who works with children, we hope you will join us to learn about the nutritional needs of children at all ages. Though everyone is welcome, whether new to a plant-based lifestyle or more experienced, this session is particularly well suited to those seeking resources for their plant-based journey and reassurance that they can support the health of the children they love with wholesome foods from the plant kingdom.
