The word “nutritarian” was coined by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, one of the participants in the annual 10-day conference sponsored by The Hippocrates Health Center called “The Real Truth About Health.”
Dr. Fuhrman wrote “Eat to Live,” “How to Disease Proof Your Child,” and other books on maintaining optimal health and quality longevity. He uses the word, “nutritarian” to mean getting optimal nutrients from food to prevent and reverse disease and live the highest quality of life.
