Join our director of public health and animal agriculture, Michael Greger, M.D., and learn for yourself—and your loved ones—how to have a humane and healthy diet.

Attention to diet can help reduce the risks of chronic diseases that plague Americans such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, and certain cancers.

And these days, many people are reducing the amount of animal-based foods they eat—even just one meal or one day a week—to help combat global warming, inhumane factory farming practices, and other problems.

To whet your appetite for knowledge, watch hundreds of Dr. Greger's videos for free, or order Dr. Greger's new DVD series, "Latest in Clinical Nutrition."

All the presentations below are titled "Latest in Nutrition" unless otherwise noted, and all talks are open to the public.
