Wow! I’m at a loss for words (well – almost at a loss for wordsJ)
to express my excitement over a wonderful, life-enhancing new book
The Thrive Diet – the whole food way to lose weight, reduce stress,
and stay healthy for life by Brendan Brazier, the professional
Ironman triathlete.
As I’ve mentioned before, over twenty years ago Frank and I
(motivated by compassion for nonhuman animals) started a journey that
would bless us with improved health and ongoing spiritual comfort beyond
our expectations. This journey led us to a vegan lifestyle based on
eating mostly whole, unprocessed plant foods.
So, reading The Thrive Diet by Brendan Brazier, a world-class
athlete who has spent twenty years studying the effect that whole,
unprocessed foods have on training and competing, furthers our knowledge
in general, as well as gives us ideas that we can apply to further
“tweak” our diet.
I found the chapters “Reduce Stress to Increase Vitality” and “The
Thrive Diet for a Healthy Environment” particularly insightful. From
Meal Plans to Recipes this book is a resource full of solid advice and
detailed explanations that anyone, athlete or not, can learn from and
apply for real results.
The Thrive Diet by Brendan Brazier is one book that you will
want to keep handy (as in your kitchen) and refer to often. We
enthusiastically recommend it to everyone – absolutely!
