One-Day Summit on
PLANT-BASED Human Performance

Thursday, September 19, 2024 ~ 8:00 am - 6:00 pm

Anaheim Marriott ~ Anaheim, California

Eating more plants produces more human performance in anyone. This event brings together provocative science, results, and proven pioneers across human performance nutrition.

Join us alongside practitioners, athletes, and innovators at our inaugural event. When the best in the world find a better way they adapt.

_____________________________________________

Inside us, food does three things: (1) fuels for energy, (2) builds matter, (3) conditions physiology.

Our macronutrient focus (carbs, proteins, fats) for fueling, building, and weight loss/gain is the prevailing diet and nutrition narrative in our culture. However, it is the “Conditioning” function of (nutrient-dense) foods that offer more results. MICROnutrient advantages are a blind spot for most.

Performance (deep inside you) is needed along the entire spectrum of physiological states (poor to peak… patient, pregnant, pedestrian, to pro athlete). Systemic and sustainable physiological gains are realized from plant foods, every day, and over time. Plant micronutrition conditions our physiology in three ways: (1) Activates, (2) Modulates, (3) Attenuates.

Effective food technology can help amplify our results.

We invite you to join us and experience proven ideas and provocative pioneers who will bring to life a new era of applied science, network physiology, and human performance nutrition. It will challenge you and compel you to adapt.

Attendance at this workshop is limited to the first 350 participants.

Registration fee is $259.00 per person.

Game of Gains: A New Paradigm in Performance Nutrition

8:15 am - 9:15 am

Dotsie Bausch

Jeff Olson

Scott Stoll, MD

For decades macronutrients dominated the discussion in sports nutrition today. The new science of performance reveals that optimized, cellular, and physiologic function is dominated by micronutrients. Pulling from the new science, Jeff and Scott this session will present a new construct of sports nutrition and the food patterns that fuel performance both in competition and daily life.

Energy Optimization: The Relationship Between Micronutrients and Mitochondria

9:15 am - 10:15 am

James F. Loomis, Jr., MD

Energy production is fundamental to performance at every level of sports and daily life. Simply put, increased energy production produces enhanced performance. During this session, attendees will learn about the core dietary components that not only improve the efficiency of mitochondria – the powerplant of the cell – mitochondria, but help in the creation of create new mitochondria thus increasing overall energy production.


Break

10:15 am - 10:45 am

The Microbiome and Optimal Immunity for Human Performance

10:45 am - 11:45 am

Angie Sadeghi, MD

The microbiome is more important to overall performance than we realize. Enhanced immunity for accelerated injury healing, normalization of inflammation and combating infections (especially before big events and occasions), are modulated by a healthy microbiome. This session will present the emerging evidence that demonstrates the performance enhancement, energy optimization and immune system enhancements of a healthy microbiome and how to maximize your microbiota.

The Power of Plants in Fueling Recovery and Regeneration

11:45 am - 12:45 pm

Scott Stoll, MD

Proper nutrition is paramount to recovery and regeneration but is often a neglected area of sports and daily nutrition. This presentation will walk attendees through the remarkable science of the gut joint axis, mobilization of stem cells, activation of cartilage regeneration and the power of an anti-inflammatory diet to improve recovery and soreness and get you “back in the game” faster than you ever thought possible.


LUNCH / Networking

12:45 pm - 2:15 pm

Razor Sharp: The Nexus of Nutrition for the Brain

2:15 pm - 3:15 pm

Dean Sherzai, MD, PhD

Reaction time, memory, focus and clarity are critical to performance and are maximized or limited by the athlete’s plate. Learn from international experts about the power of a well-designed performance nutrition program to improve your cognitive performance, in sport and in daily life, giving you the healthiest brain possible both today and as you age.

Dietary Supplements and Human Performance

3:15 pm - 4:15 pm

Daphne Bascom, MD, PhD

Supplements have become synonymous with optimized human performance, but with more than 100,000 different products on the market, with varying quality and purity, how do you know what to believe?  With a clear scientific and experiential foundation, Dr. Bascom will sort through the misinformation and present today's best evidence for safe and beneficial supplement use in human performance.


BREAK

4:15 pm - 4:45 pm

Focused on the application of optimal performance nutrition, this panel will answer key questions related to micronutrient rich foods that assist in recovery, activity specific nutrition, pre-and-post activity nutrition, anti-inflammatory foods, and the strategies for incorporating these foods in active, travel-based lifestyles.
