Find Out More about P-POD:

Why P-POD?

  • P-POD is the finest U.S. conference of fewer than 100 speakers for explaining the impact that plant-based nutrition, combined with lifestyle medicine and health equity, can have on chronic disease in society.

  • The P-POD nonprofit has always accepted absolutely zero funding, sponsorship or influence from commercial sources.

  • P-POD's registration fees per day are lower than those for most fully accredited professional conferences in the U.S.

  • Most of the distinguished researchers, clinicians and educators who speak at P-POD are women, and close to half are people of color.

  • Since the 2014 founding, every P-POD Conference has provided continuing education credits to physicians, nurses, dietitians and other practitioners.

  • P-POD was the third conference event producer in the world fully accredited for pre-credentialing of Lifestyle Medicine Diplomates (December 2017), and remains one of the very few.

  • P-POD's innovative curriculum of 15 Core Topic Areas is of unusually high relevance and value for healthcare practitioners, educators and activists today.

  • Any nutrition conference should represent Registered Dietitians well among its speakers, and P-POD has done that:   84 RDNs in 18 conferences since its founding.

  • We believe that as health professionals we should recognize and advocate for the human rights of all persons equally, regardless of their age, race, gender, gender identification, ethnicity, national origin, religious identification or geographic location.

Attendee Feedback

We actually post on this website all verbal comments we receive about the conference overall.

Excellent academic and practical information.  I feel better informed for responding to everyday questions patients and friends ask.

I do nutrition education with young children, and will adjust some of the things I teach to reflect knowledge gained at the conference.

Hi – just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the conference and appreciated how much hard work went into it! Everyone did a fantastic job.
