Eating a Plant Based Diet Can Change your Life We have short article here about a lifelong competitive athlete and what he found when he changed his eating habits from high protein to plant based. He says not only did it improve his recovery time between competition events, he found his health and the way his digestive tract felt improved drastically: forksoverknives/how-plant-based-eating-made-me-healthier-and-a-better-athlete/ What is a plant based diet? A whole-food, plant-based diet is centered on whole, unrefined, or minimally refined plants. It’s a diet based on fruits, vegetables, tubers, whole grains, and legumes; and it excludes or minimizes meat (including chicken and fish), dairy products, and eggs, as well as highly refined foods like bleached flour, refined sugar, and oil. This diet has recently been hailed as the ultimate diet in terms of health and nutrition by all sorts of nutritionists, dieticians and health gurus. There is also the added benefit that by eating less meat we help out the planet a little! It one of the reasons we make sure that out meals are packed to the gills with healthy and varied veg, whole grain carbs and quality proteins. And if you still dont like veggies, well as Wayne always says you learnt to enjoy single malt whiskey, red wine, cigarettes and the pain of getting tattoos, you can learn to enjoy the subtle tastes for vegetables and other good food. #EatClean!
