The International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention (IJDRP), documents the science of nutrition and lifestyle to prevent, suspend, and reverse disease. It also incorporates the International Journal of Lifestyle Medicine. The IJDRP is a publication of The Plantrician Project.
The IJDRP is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to the highest levels of credibility and integrity in scientific publishing, free from outside industry influence. Our mission is to create an internationally recognized journal that serves as the primary repository of scientific research documenting the role of nutrition and lifestyle in arresting and reversing chronic lifestyle-related diseases.
In addition, we publish the Disease Reversal and Prevention Digest, a digital magazine that complements the Journal. The Disease Reversal Digest directly links the disease reversing science of the IJDRP, whole food plant-based nutrition and regenerative agriculture with practical advice for living a vibrant, healthy life.
