520 $aFrazier and Cheeke reveal proof that the human body does not need meat, eggs, or dairy to be strong. Instead, research shows that a consciously calibrated plant-based diet offers the greatest possible recovery times, cell oxidation, injury prevention, and restorative sleep, and allows athletes to train more effectively, with better results. Committing to a plant-based diet is not as simple as swapping vegetables for meat. Even the slightest food adjustments can impact performance. The authors offer readers a persuasive body of evidence for adopting a plant-based lifestyle; show how plant protein can be used to increase strength, muscle mass, and power; and share insights from plant-based athletes on what, when, and how they eat to fuel their varied workouts.
