“The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.”

PLANT BASED DIET

After attending a medical education conference in 2015, Dr. Thompson became confident that eating a whole food plant based diet is the most effective way to prevent and cure disease.  In an era of fad dieting, Dr. Thompson was overwhelmed by the medical evidence supporting cutting out ALL animal products from the diet.  The evidence was unwavering in curing already established disease and in preventing disease, even when one has a genetic predisposition to it.

 

Many of our patients who have taken on the challenge of transforming their diet by removing all animal products have come off all or part of their medications, especially those with diabetes and high blood pressure.  Within 8 weeks of following the diet, other patients with auto-immune disease have seen their labs normalize.  These results often surpass what is available with pharmaceutical medications.  When most diet plans have to state 'results not typical,' we are confident that the results we are finding are typical!

 

As a converted meat-eater, Dr. Thompson and his wife have been surprised at how tasty and delicious eating a whole food plant based diet has become.  They have found a new joy in cooking and discovering exciting places to eat here in the valley and the greater city of Los Angeles.  If they could do it, you can too!
