Meals
The meals will be fully plant-based (no meat, dairy or eggs) and anti-inflammatory.
As we will learn throughout the week, a predominantly whole foods plant-based diet is scientifically shown to help prevent and even reverse many chronic diseases and optimize longevity and health. In our week together, not only will you taste delicious plant-based foods, but also learn how to cook and integrate them in your daily life. You will also receive a nutrient-packed freshly made juice each evening tailored to your health needs.
The first and second days (Sunday and Monday) will be a juice detox so please arrive on Sunday without eating breakfast.
Seventh-day Adventists
Heard of Seventh-day Adventists?
They’re Protestant Christians who put a unique emphasis on healthy living, operate one of the largest global hospital and health systems, and recognized as one of the longest living and healthiest people groups in the world.
One Week In Paradise is put on by Adventist healthcare providers and includes some spiritual components such as morning devotional talks. You are welcome to join them if you so choose; if not, that’s totally fine as well. This program is for anyone and your personal beliefs will be fully respected.
