The output of horticulture should be the input of hospitals…. VEGGIES!
Session together with Patrick Deckers, chairman of the Caring Doctors.
Eatthis. supports Caring Doctors in their pursuit to create a transition in Dutch healthcare towards an EAT Lancet (80/20 diet). A diet that puts much more emphasis on prevention.
Speakers
After twenty years I stopped as an orthopedic surgeon to start the Caring Doctors Foundation. A fast-growing organization by and for healthcare professionals, working on the health of the planet and humans with a mainly plant based food system.
In a mainly plant-based food system (Planetary Health Diet) there is less health damage from welfare diseases, less environmental damage and more food security. We provide training, education and guidance within care and cure institutions and beyond to first accelerate all institutional kitchens towards a (mainly) plant-based food supply (80% plant based).
We do this together with many partners (leaders in agriculture and horticulture, dietitians, teachers and chefs).
As a concerned father, I hope to contribute a little to a livable planet for future generations.
