The Ozark Center for Lifestyle Medicine is hosting its monthly whole food plant-based (WFPB) potluck meal on the second Monday of each month, and we’d love to have you join us tonight!

This community event is a wonderful opportunity to savor beautiful, delicious, healthy food, learn more about plant-based eating, and meet folks who are wanting to take a proactive role in restoring their bodies to optimal health and vitality!

We will hear the stories of some who have experienced the power of a plant-based diet to heal, and you’ll have an opportunity to “ask the doc” of Dr. Morgan, a Lifestyle Medicine physician, any questions you may have about plant-based eating, and lifestyle medicine in general. Dr. Morgan will also give a short presentation on how Lifestyle Medicine can help treat, prevent, and reverse disease.

If you can make it, just bring a dish that is based on whole plants (with minimal to no oil and salt, and no animal products) to share. If you’re not the cooking type, feel free to bring some cut-up fruit or raw veggies. Anything real and minimally processed is welcome! We just want you to come!

Please feel free to invite anyone who may be interested in coming with you! (Your dish will cover for them). Also, if you have children, say 9 and up, who are interested in healthy living, feel free to bring them along as well!
