The Purjes Foundation’s goal is to promote health of body, mind and soul. The Purjes Foundation is focused on reversal and prevention of chronic diseases through a whole food plant-based lifestyle.
The Purjes Foundation funds clinical trials and scientific studies that involve plant-based nutrition. This scientific research includes clinical studies at major university hospitals throughout the country, which have been published in peer-reviewed medical journals. The Purjes Foundation co-founded the International Journal of Disease Reversal & Prevention, the world’s first peer-reviewed scientific journal devoted to the reversal and prevention of chronic disease through whole plant-food nutrition.
The Foundation has also executive produced documentary films involving plant-based nutrition such as Eating You Alive and Disease Reversal Hope: The Film.
Dan Purjes and his wife Edna (“Ed”) founded the Purjes Foundation in 1999 and have funded it since then.
