Plant-powered Athletes Unleashed, Part 2 of 2

Athletic training and performance requires a vast amount of energy to fuel the body, and many people like to know what to eat on a plant-based diet. “My first recommendation is to add more unrefined, plant-based products, starting with fruits and vegetables definitely, which is what our society is so deficient in.” The Vegan Power Athlete group stands for more than just winning races and medals; it also promotes the realization of the power to be a voice for the well-being of our animal friends, humans, and our planet. “It is a world full of injustices in which, I believe we have to make a change. For me, being an athlete is not having to consume products that are destroying our planet, that are taking the life of someone innocent. Give other sentient beings, like us, the rights we ask for：freedom, love, and happiness.” “Well, my message would be that we wake up and raise our conscience, that we are really reasonable and intelligent beings, who know how to make the best decisions.” “There is nothing we cannot get with a plant-based diet.”
