Abstract

Eating patterns that emphasize healthy, plant-predominant foods, as opposed to animal-derived products, are associated with reductions in cardiovascular (CV) risk and should be promoted to patients. We created a hospital initiative to educate the multidisciplinary staff to serve as advocates for healthy eating to our patients. Housestaff engagement may be a promising mechanism to educate patients and encourage food and nutrition changes across a health system.
