Bringing Plant-Based Nutrition into Healthcare
What is VegMed 23?
Dr Shireen Kassam introduces the VegMed 23 conference
VegMed London 2023 took place at Imperial College London on Sept 9th and 10th and was a collaboration between Plant-Based Health Professionals UK and PAN International – Physicians Association for Nutrition, and is supported by ProVeg International, with the overarching theme of ‘Bringing Plant-Based Nutrition into Healthcare’. We had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend, full of inspiration and knowledge exchange.
The VegMed conferencing brand started in 2012 and is Europe’s largest conference dedicated to plant-based nutrition. This year was no different. The conference featured over 40 speakers from the fields of medicine, nutrition and research and brought attendees up to date on the science and practice of plant-based nutrition. Topics covered ranged from clinical practice, managing chronic conditions, public sector catering, medical education, community cooking, behaviour change, policy implementation and more. The content was designed to be applicable and accessible to health professionals and non-health professionals alike.
