Pedaling for Plant-Based Diets J
Jeff Popick
eff Popick, of Marco Island, is pre- paring to bike across the country to spread awareness of the health ben- efits of following a plant-based diet. The 50-year-old Realtor, entrepreneur and weight and health coach for groups and individuals plans to pedal from New York City to Los Angeles beginning in mid-August, to draw attention to how he permanently lost 150 pounds and reaped other healthy benefits after adopting such a diet more than 20 years ago.
In addition to his significant weight loss from 320 pounds, Popick’s high cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels, gout and daily medication needs also went away. He refers to his plan, which he will share at presenta- tions during his trip, as a “non-diet diet.” Popick explains, “There is no count- ing calories, carbs or points; no tiny portions; no pills; no pre-made mail-order food; no surgery and… no dieting!”
The plan is especially suited for people that love meat, and Popick says everyone who has adopted it has experienced positive results, regardless of genetics, family history or past dieting attempts. John Robbins, author of numerous books including Diet for a New Ameri-
ca and Healthy at 100, has referred to Popick as, “… a passionate man with a compelling message.” Popick believes that his program can win out over adult and childhood obesity, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and many cancers, including breast and colon cancer.
