VegMed London 2023 is a collaboration between Plant-Based Health Professionals UK and PAN International – Physicians Association for Nutrition, and is supported by ProVeg International, with the overarching theme of ‘Bringing Plant-Based Nutrition into Healthcare’.
This conference is relevant to all health professionals (doctors, nurses, dietitians, nutritionists, allied health professionals, health coaches) and to non-health professionals who have an interest in improving their diet, optimising health and supporting others to do the same. In addition, the programme is relevant to researchers, policy makers, healthcare and NHS executives and public sector caterers.
The programme will feature a range of experts with extensive experience in using plant-based nutrition in clinical practice and healthcare settings. In addition, we will showcase successful projects that are taking place within the community and in public sector catering to facilitate the transition to a plant-based diet. The impact of our food choices on the climate and ecological crisis will be discussed. Attendees will gain knowledge and confidence in meeting nutritional requirements for all ages and stages of life, including for the prevention and management of chronic conditions and for achieving optimal athletic performance.
Topics to be covered will include:
• type 2 diabetes
• heart disease
• women’s health
• nutrition for athletes
• plant-based diets for children
• autoimmune conditions
• school and hospital catering
• planetary health
