About Bill Daniels

The lives of Bill and his wife, Nonie, changed dramatically for the better after viewing the documentary, Forks Over Knives, and, shortly thereafter, Bill read Dr. T. Colin Campbell’s book, The China Study. Before being inspired to transition to a whole food, plant-based diet, Bill’s heart disease prevented him from walking up a steep hill without chest discomfort. Now, he can do it with ease! 

Bill holds degrees in Theater, Theology, and Health Science. In addition, he has completed certificates in Plant-Based Nutrition, Native Plant Propagation, and Permaculture Design, and is an Advanced Master Gardener. Upon retirement in 2019, Bill became the co-leader of PEA (Plant-based Eating Advocates) Pod in Bloomington, IN. PEA Pod’s small band of plant-based advocates continued to be active throughout the pandemic, meeting for picnics and Zoom get-togethers. PEA Pod’s current focus is to provide programs, resources, tools, knowledge, and support to group members and the general public regarding living a low-fat, whole food, plant-based life.
