Yoriko Nishizawa, Dr.

Yoriko has been eating whole-food plant-based since October 2022. She transformed her eating habits primarily to overcome her family's health issues, but she also realized the positive impact on her own health. To deepen her knowledge of plant-based nutrition and chronic diseases, she also obtained the Plant-based Nutrition Certificate at Cornell University, US, during the grief of her family's loss. Her interest extended to Lifestyle Medicine and Planetary Health as she started to believe that integrating into next-generation medical and health professional education is important.
