    Calvin Iwashita, Rocket Scientist Chili
    Aug 17, 2p – Arena

    I started my business in 1995 primarily to assist our beloved senior citizens with their health, as they were the main ones back then with health issues such as high cholesterol, raised levels of blood sugar, and elevated blood pressure. It was a tough sell in the 90's to aver that a plant based diet can improve your numbers. "Rocket Scientist Chili" was the selected name, over 2 decades ago. For some reason I figured it would draw more attention than "Vegan Chili". Today, my products are in the commissaries, Down to Earth stores, and I do presentations for each class at Ekahi Health. After their 9 week class, you have walking proof that a plant based diet can reverse heart disease.
