We will be checking it periodically for new event invitations. I hope to see you—on the road or on your screen! [Request a Speaking Event]( [Focus: Vitamin D]( Focus: Vitamin D It’s now summer here in the northern hemisphere, making it a lot easier to meet our vitamin D needs directly from the sun. However, if you don’t get adequate sun exposure, I recommend 2,000 IU vitamin D supplements daily, ideally with the largest meal of the day. For all of my vitamin D information, check out our [infographic]( and [topic page](. [Vitamin D]( [New Recipes]( New Recipes We regularly add delicious new recipes to our [recipe page]( and now our friends have joined in! We just shared Christine Ng’s [Korean Soy Milk Noodles]( which combine a homemade soy broth with buckwheat noodles and vegetables, and Chef AJ’s [Mango Lime Tart]( a decadent green-light dessert. Sounds like a summertime meal to me! [Recipes]( Speaking of recipes, my signature “Cruciferocious” apron is going out of stock soon. [Get one while you still can!]( [Alissa] Welcome, Alissa! We're excited to announce that Alissa Finley is joining the team as our official Research Review Manager, ensuring the accuracy and integrity of all scientific information disseminated by NutritionFacts.org. Alissa’s working relationship with NutritionFacts.org began in 2015 when she was hired to serve as chief fact-checker for How Not to Die. Since then, she has been a vital member of my book team. Recently, her purview has expanded beyond books to include videos and other materials. Alissa resides in Norman, Oklahoma, with her children and furry companions. “I have had the pleasure of volunteering for NutritionFacts for over three years now. I am a member of the Content Review Team, checking the videos for errors or discrepancies before they are released to the public, and I also upload the daily videos to Instagram. Since retiring from my career as a pathologist, I feel honored to be helping Dr. Greger and the team provide such life-changing information to a wide audience. It means so much to be helping to prevent and improve many of the diseases that I used to just diagnose. My favorite plant-based food is lentil soup—any kind as long as it’s whole food, plant-based!” —Honora Favorito New Subscriber Gift New subscribers to the newsletter will receive The Daily Dozen Meal Planning Guide.
