Promote Vegetarian Foods

in New Public Service Campaign

 

Washington, D.C.—The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) is

delighted to announce a new series of public service announcements (PSAs)

featuring actors Marilu Henner and Edward Asner, author Alice Walker, Tonight

Show bandleader Kevin Eubanks, and other celebrities. Entitled " Do It for

Someone You Love, " the campaign encourages Americans to choose healthy foods,

especially low-fat and vegetarian ones, both for their own health and that of

their loved ones. PCRM is distributing the PSAs to television and radio stations

and newspapers throughout the United States.

 

" With the help of these generous celebrities, we hope to encourage many

Americans to eat a healthier diet by including more vegetarian foods in their

routine, " says PCRM president Neal D. Barnard, M.D. " Given how important healthy

foods are in preventing disease and the vast fortunes spent by fast-food chains

and junk-food industries in promoting their unhealthy products, it's critical we

do all we can to communicate positive nutritional messages. "

 

As Marilu Henner says in her PSA: " With my active life, I need to keep myself

fit. And a healthy diet helps me do just that. Some Szechuan tofu, pasta

primavera, or my own favorite—cold soba noodles with sesame sauce. The more

vegetarian meals you eat, the healthier you'll be. So be stronger and last

longer. Tonight, make it vegetarian. Do it for someone you love. "

I really like that approach... it comes across to me as intelligent, gentle and

yet powerful! The " someone you love " can be

absolutely anyone (including onself!), so it can appeal to everyone.
