Description

The Plantwise Podcast is all about evidence-based healthy lifestyle habits and the books that inspire them. Hosted with Brigitte Gemme, Ph.D., the show focuses on plant-based nutrition and the foundations of long-term well-being: exercise, sleep, stress management, community, and a positive mindset. We want to know how to prevent chronic disease and cognitive decline, so we can enjoy long, healthy, active, and meaningful lives. 

The podcast features a mix of interviews with plant-friendly authors and solo episodes where Brigitte shares insight from the most important health books of our time. 

What are they actually saying? What's the bigger pictures? How does it look like to live those ideas? Let's talk about it. 

New episodes twice monthly. Follow the show and let great books improve your life!
