Description
Using the latest research in sports nutrition, this handbook helps athletes maximise their performance, expedite recovery, and optimise their health through balanced, plant-based eating.
Debunking the myth that a plant-based diet and high-intensity athleticism just don't mix, The Vegan Athlete's Nutrition Handbook is a comprehensive guidebook for anyone looking to dive deep into the science behind plant-based eating and peak performance. Making the choice to switch to a plant-based diet shouldn't mean giving up your gains — in fact, incorporating more plant-based foods may even give you an athletic advantage — provided you know how to properly fuel your body while eating vegan.
The Vegan Athlete's Nutrition Handbook features:
- Breakdown of key macro and micronutrients in a plant-based diet
- The latest information on healthy supplements and dosing
- Over 25 flavourful and fuelling vegan recipes
- Sample meal plans to create nutrient-rich, complete vegan meals
- Guidance on the top athletic concerns, including bone health and rapid recovery
The book provides expert guidance for everyone from weekend warriors to professional athletes, whether you are plant-curious, transitioning to a plant-forward diet, or want to refine your existing plant-based nutrition plan. With easy-to-follow vegan menus, recipes, tips, and tricks that can enhance performance, boost recovery, and improve health, there's no reason not to be a vegan athlete!
