Why a Whole Plant Food Diet?
The 3 most compelling reasons why more and more people are adopting a Whole Plant Food Diet are:
1. A Whole Plant Food Diet prevents and reverses chronic disease.
There are many benefits to adopting a Whole Plant Food diet or lifestyle. Most importantly, it treats the underlying causes of diseases, not just the symptoms. Patients actually get better and feel better, especially when they can reduce or eliminate their prescription medications along with their common side effects. Also, the cost of healthy nutrition is much lower than the cost of medical treatment.

2. You can lose more weight and quicker on a Whole Plant Food Diet.
In our fast-paced world, we have come to expect immediate gratification. We love fast foods, drive fast cars, and take "fast-acting" pills to help alleviate our aches and discomforts. We go on diets that promise quick results only to find out that those diets are unhealthy and don’t provide lasting results.
The Whole Plant Food lifestyle is geared most of all toward long-term weight loss success and sustainable improvements to your health, not quick fixes. However, you can achieve some definite positive changes on a WPF diet within months, weeks, or even days.
Unlike restrictive diets -- the kind most people use to try to lose weight -- the WPF diet will achieve true weight loss. In less than a week, you may notice that you have more energy, better control of your blood sugar, improved digestion, and better sleep. Within a couple of weeks, you will experience weight loss, and within a month you may notice clearer skin and an improved sex life.
Results vary, but rest assured, the best and healthiest way to lose weight is on a Whole Plant Food diet.

3. You can keep the weight off permanently by adopting a Whole Plant Food Lifestyle.
Adopting a lifestyle focused on Whole Plant Foods promotes natural weight loss, because whole plant foods are less calorically dense.
Calorie density is a measure of the calories in a given weight of food. Foods with low calorie density (whole plant foods) have fewer calories per gram, while more calorie-dense foods (meat, dairy, and processed foods) have more calories.
For example, fats have 9 calories per gram compared to carbohydrates that have only 4 calories per gram. High-fat foods are the most calorie dense foods. Over-consuming calorie dense foods quickly leads to obesity.
By choosing less calorie-dense foods, you can eat large portions while consuming fewer calories. These foods are high in fiber, water, and nutrients, helping you feel fuller and more satisfied with fewer calories. This makes it much easier to maintain a calorie deficit, which results in natural weight loss. The Whole Plant Food Lifestyle gives you full control of your weight for life.

A Whole Plant Food diet is effective for weight loss because it is satisfying, but low in calories. Fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains are all less calorically dense. Although nuts, seeds, and avocados are somewhat calorically dense, they do provide needed nutrients and can be eaten in moderation. Conversely, foods with the highest calorie density -- oil, butter, and other animal-based products -- should be excluded from the diet for optimal health.
