The PlantPure foods business was launched in 2016, on the heels of the theatrical release of the PlantPure Nation documentary film in over 100 communities. This film is currently available on Amazon Prime.

PlantPure Nation tells the story of three people on a quest to spread the message of one of the most important health breakthroughs of all time. After renowned nutritional scientist and bestselling author T. Colin Campbell gives a stirring speech on the floor of the Kentucky House of Representatives, his son, Nelson, and Kentucky State Representative Tom Riner work together to propose a pilot program documenting the health benefits of a plant-based diet. Once the legislation goes into Committee, agribusiness lobbyists kill the plan. Undeterred, Nelson decides to try his own pilot project in his hometown of Mebane, North Carolina.

The same film crew responsible for PlantPure Nation recently completed a new film called, From Food to Freedom. A project of the nonprofit PlantPure Communities, From Food to Freedom tells the story of a live-in immersion program in Greensboro, NC with six participants (and two spouses) diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

As we go through the immersion, we hear from participants of their past struggles living with such a dreaded disease and we watch firsthand as they suddenly change their diet from a standard American diet to a whole food plant-based diet and achieve unexpected and astounding results. Their individual stories and the story of the immersion also creates the opportunity for digressions into the topics of nutrition, chronic disease, immunity, and the Covid pandemic.

From Food to Freedom opens our eyes to the possibility of transformational change in society and it charts a hopeful pathway for people wanting to live free of disease and costly pharmaceuticals.
