Paul was born in Detroit in 1958. In May of 2013, he was diagnosed with Heart Disease. His cardiologist gave him two options: bypass surgery or try “Plant Based Nutrition” (PBN). After meeting with Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, he decided to try “Plant Based Nutrition”. After just 3 weeks his angina disappeared. His cholesterol levels dropped from 350 to 88 and he lost 75 pounds in one year. He felt great! Paul promised himself that when he felt better he would give back. In February of 2014, he held his first Plant Based Nutrition Support Group (PBNSG) meeting.123 people attended! Today, PBNSG has 11,000 members and over 60 volunteers. PBNSG has completed curriculum change with Medical Students at Wayne State Medical School. Held classes for local doctors to learn about the benefits of nutrition before pills or procedures called Doctors Teaching Doctors. Received a sponsorship from Henry Ford Health Systems. In 2024, PBNSG will be holding over 15 health and culinary education classes each month.
With all this WFPB education, I was still not completely satisfied. So on May 1st, 2024 I along with my co-founder Meryl Fury will be introducing the world to The Sage Circle Alliance. This new organization will help any WFPB/Vegan business from anywhere around the world to connect with each other, share resources, create a directory of Vegan/Plant Based entrepreneurs be all like-minded and caring business people.
