Publisher's Synopsis
Are you looking for meatless, high protein recipes for athletes? Are you trying to figure out if a vegan can excel in his sport despite a seemingly protein-free diet?
"If you don't eat meat, you don't get protein!"
This statement is as false as it is widespread among people. There are many people who think that, for example, it may be impossible for a body builder to train in a vegan lifestyle.
Fortunately, things are slowly changing.
In the world of sports, veganism, which is already a top eating phenomenon and lifestyle, is taking shape. Olympians, body builders, boxers, and top athletes in the NBA and NFL have followed this lifestyle.
Because of the lack of animal protein, athletes and body builders usually think that developing and training their muscles through a vegan diet is very difficult. Sometimes the lack of protein in the vegan diet makes you want meat you didn't give up. Even worse, you may forget the benefits of vegan lifestyle due to the lack of taste and flavor in common vegan recipes.
Nature is a great healthy protein source, and many plant-based foods still have more protein than meat. In fact, these foods contain very little fat compared to meat, which, as we know, will increase cholesterol levels and the risk of heart attack.
