[CPD-CEU] Plant-based vs. Meat-based Diets: Evidence for Settling the Dietary Divide

For over a decade, plant-based vs. meat-based diets have been hotly debated, with more people turning to plant-based eating for health and environmental reasons.

Over 60% of nutrition professionals want to help clients with plant-forward strategies and 70% of the global population is either reducing meat consumption or leaving meat off the table altogether (GlobalData Report).

- But different clients have different needs, so is a plant-based diet safe for everyone?

- Does it allow for some animal foods… or is it about going entirely vegan?

- To what extent can plant-focused eating support client goals such as weight loss and healthier longevity – and when might it fall short?

- And in what ways might long-lasting plant-focused eating behaviour change be fostered?

Completing this CPD-CEU training will equip you with vital know-how underpinning plant-forward nutrition client practice, along with practical insights for adequately building personalised plant-focused dietary plans that clients benefit from and can keep up with. Plus, explore our 10-level framework to guide clients seamlessly from plant-rich, to plant-based, to possibly plant-exclusive—without fear or unwanted complications.
