Brenda Davis, registered dietitian, is widely regarded as a rock star of plant-based nutrition. Veg News called her “The Godmother of vegan dietitians” and the Complete Health Improvement Program founder referred to her as “The High Priestess of Vegan Nutrition.”
Davis has been a featured speaker at medical and nutrition conferences in over twenty countries on five continents. Among the most exciting adventures include a personal consult and lecture for a member of the royal family and his staff in Saudi Arabia (with colleague, Dr. Michael Greger), a lifestyle intervention demonstration project for the medical community in Lithuania (with colleague, Dr. John Kelly), a keynote lecture to the Tzu Chi Medical Association in Taiwan, lectures for dietitians at national nutrition conferences in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Spain, Taiwan, the United States, and the United Kingdom, and ongoing diabetes intervention research and education in the Marshall Islands. Davis has served as the lead dietitian for this project since 2006. On her last trip to the Marshall Islands (November 2017), she developed a nutrition education curriculum for kindergarten through grade six and trained teachers in all public schools.
Davis is a prolific author with eleven vegetarian and vegan nutrition classics with close to eight hundred thousand copies sold, in fourteen languages. Her most recent works include Kick Diabetes Essentials: The Diet and Lifestyle Guide (Davis, 2019 – in press), The Kick Diabetes Cookbook (Davis and Melina, 2018), Becoming Vegan: Comprehensive Edition (Davis and Melina, 2014) and Becoming Vegan: Express Edition (Davis and Melina, 2013). Becoming Vegan: Comprehensive Edition won the REAL Best of 2014 Book Award, and Becoming Vegan: Express Edition won the Canada Book Award and was a finalist and received honorable mention in the Foreward Book of the Year Award. Becoming Vegan: Comprehensive and Express Editions have also received a star rating by the American Library Association as the “go-to books” on plant-based nutrition.
Davis has co-authored numerous professional and lay articles. She is a past chair of the Vegetarian Nutrition Dietetic Practice Group of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Davis has been promoting plant-based diets since making the transition herself in 1989. Her personal and professional life goals are one and the same – to make this world a kinder, more compassionate place. Davis's work focuses on ensuring that everyone who wishes to be vegetarian or vegan can succeed brilliantly. In 2007, Brenda Davis was inducted into the Vegetarian Hall of Fame.
