Krisann Polito-Moller is a plant based champion. One of the most tragic episodes in her life was also the catalyst for change that lead her to profoundly alter her and her family’s diet. Krisann's father passed away just hours before she would go into labor with her first child. She couldn’t make it to his funeral as she was still in the hospital herself with her new born baby. This event moved her to her core and she made health, wellbeing and plant based nutrition the center of her life’s mission.
A certified personal trainer, yoga teacher as well as health coach, Krisann believe in the most holistic and well rounded approach. It’s about a lot of little steps in a lot of little areas in your life in order. All these small changes will lead to exponential growth and health if only you embrace them.
Most recently, Krisann joined Dr Michelle McMacken’s team at Bellevue Hospital in NYC as part of the first Plant-Based Lifestyle Medicine Program at a US public hospital. The program brings together doctors, dietitians and health coaches. They work one-on-one with patients to create a personalized plan for healthy plant-based eating.
Krisann is unstoppable and is also the co founder of the Tulsa Veg Festwhich will take place on May 4 for the first time.
