| LITTLE ROCK — The public is invited to a talk at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) by Michael Klaper, M.D., a physician, consultant, educator and public speaker who advocates the health benefits of eating a whole-food, plant-based diet.
Klaper will speak on “Health Transformations from a Whole-Food, Plant-Based Diet” at 6 p.m. April 1, in the Jo Ellen Ford Auditorium, UAMS Donald W. Reynolds Institute on Aging, 629 Jack Stephens Drive. Free parking is available immediately adjacent to the building.
Klaper’s talk will include comparisons of the physiological impact of different eating patterns on the body, the extent of “foodborne” chronic illness in our society, and the role of whole-food, plant-based nutrition in the disease process. Klaper will also hold a question-and-answer session.

From Dr. Klaper’s website:
Moving Medicine
Forward
For over 40 years, I have served thousands of people on their journey to reclaim health through proper nutrition and a balanced lifestyle. I want to help you, too.
Dr. Klaper is pleased to announce that, in association with PlantPure Communities, he will be traveling to medical schools around the country to (a) help awaken young health professionals to the key role of their patient’s diet as a cause — and potential cure — of chronic disease and (b) to promote the teaching of applied plant-based nutrition as part of the medical school curriculum for all physicians, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and other health professionals. “Dr. K.” will be meeting with students of every health discipline as well as developing online courses on applied, plant-based nutrition for clinicians as well as for the general public.
