Event Description
You have the power to improve your health!
See what a difference 10-days can make.
PlantPure Communities (PPC) together with Mojave Desert Nutrition Initiative (MDNI) are two young nonprofit organizations with a very ambitious agenda. Our goal is to empower and encourage people to take control of and responsibility for their wellness. Through the Oasis 10-day Jumpstart Challenge, PPC & MDNI brings healthy food and science-based nutrition education to underserved, chronically ill neighborhoods across the country.
In November 2016, PPC announced the first round of Pilot communities selected to participate in the Oasis Program. To date, three Pilot Jumpstarts in Atlanta GA, Providence RI and, Chattanooga, TN have been completed; and two more in Salinas, CA and Bullhead City, AZ will be completed by year-end.
Why take the Oasis Jumpstart Challenge?
The Oasis Jumpstart Program offers participants the opportunity to learn about the benefits of a whole food, plant-based eating lifestyle while enabling them to experience firsthand the powerful health impacts. The Oasis Pilots are modeled on the Jumpstarts conducted in Mebane, North Carolina that were documented in the 2015 feature film PlantPure Nation. A series of before/after biomarker testing, delicious plant-based foods, nutrition education and support, encourage participants to turn health around for only $45 in a remarkable 10-days!
There will be a mandatory biomarker testing for glucose/lipid profile taken two times for each program participant. The first test will be taken prior to the start of the 10-day Oasis Challenge on Tuesday, October 17th between 1:00 pm - 7:00 pm; and the second test will be taken on the last day of the 10-day challenge on Saturday October 28th between 11:00 am - 4:00 pm .
In addition to the collection of health biometrics, you will be required to sign a series of consent and authorization forms and complete a health questionnaire which will be included in the nation-wide research study and future film follow-up. You will receive these documents after you have paid your registration fee and confirmed your participation.
Mid-way through your Oasis Jumpstart Challenge on Sunday, October 22nd from 1:00 pm until 4pm the MDNI - Wellness Studio will host a potluck social and show the feature documentary "PlantPure Nation". This is an optional event, but highly encouraged for optimum results.
On Saturday, October 28, 2017 -- the final biomarker testing will be conducted and copies of your results and nutrition evaluation will be presented to you at the Commencement Certificate Celebration.
