The Dangerous Truth about Protein

Protein is the most misunderstood and overhyped nutrient. Popular myths hide basic facts: what protein is made of, how many kinds of protein there are, what happens to excess protein when you eat too much.

This presentation will transform your understanding of protein with must-know information on three dangers of consuming too much and the wrong kinds of protein. You'll also learn the truth behind three commonplace fallacies that keep you eating foods that can wreck your health.

Discover the secret of the whole foods, plant based diet that will get you an optimal amount of protein and all the other nutrients as well. And you don't have to count grams of protein.

Janice Stanger, Ph.D. is a nutrition expert, educator, speaker, and author of The Perfect Formula Diet: How To Lose Weight and Get Healthy Now With Six Kinds of Whole Foods. Her mission is to provide you solid, yet little-known, information on whole foods, plant-based diets so you can choose your diet based on facts, not myths.

Janice has a Ph.D. in Human Development and Aging from University of California, San Francisco. She is certified in plant-based nutrition through the T. Colin Campbell Foundation and has an M.B.A. from University of California, Berkeley. She is in her eighteenth year of critically analyzing scientific studies on nutrition and health.

About Down to Earth

Down to Earth's mission is to facilitate positive change by promoting healthy living, a vegetarian lifestyle, respect for the environment, and sustainable organic farming while providing high-quality organic and natural products at affordable down to earth prices.

We are Hawaii’s only ALL VEGETARIAN food store chain and one of only a few in the Nation. The company was started in 1977, over 30 years ago, when a group of friends in Wailuku, Maui, turned their vision into a business dedicated to improving the health of island communities through organic and natural products and a vegetarian lifestyle.

We Support Local Farmers

Down to Earth has a 30-year history of supporting local vendors, a commitment that is unflinching and will continue to grow. For example, Down to Earth typically purchases nearly $2.5 million in products from 400 local vendors including 172 farmers and growers each year!

We strongly support local farmers through our policy of purchasing virtually all the produce they are willing to sell us--even if it’s only a crate full. The reason we do this is simple:
  • Customers prefer local produce because it is fresher and better for the environment
  • It consumes less energy in transporting products to our islands
  • Purchasing from local vendors supports our local communities, and
  • We appreciate the opportunity to help farmers succeed


We Give Back to the Community

Down to Earth provides free vegetarian cooking classes and nutritional seminars in its stores, and in the community at local hospitals and schools. We also participate in health fairs and other events to help educate island communities about the importance of living a healthy, vegetarian lifestyle. We believe that the very act of selling natural and organic all-vegetarian products in as many locations as possible is in itself an activity that greatly benefits the community.
