The first and only comprehensive nutrition book
written for the vegan athlete. Thrive
is a long-term
eating plan that will
help you develop a lean body, sharp mind, and everlasting energy,
whether
you’re a professional athlete or simply looking to boost your physical
and
mental health. One of the few professional athletes on an entirely
plant-based
diet, Brendan researched and developed this easy-to-follow
program to
enhance his performance as an elite endurance athlete. Brendan clearly
describes why it’s easier for the body to utilize nutrient-rich foods
in their
natural state than refined, processed foods and how to choose
nutritionally
efficient, stress-busting whole foods to maximize energy and health.
And
because plant-based foods are more environmentally friendly to produce,
you’ll
also help the planet while improving your personal health.

“Quite possibly the most life-changing book you’ll ever
read. For maximizing fitness and vitality, Thrive has no
equal.” “Thrive is an authoritative guide to outstanding
performance, not just in top-level athletics, but in day-to-day life.
Written by one of the world’s leading authorities on nutrition for
professional athletes, it brings sports enthusiasts to their peak and
helps everyone—athlete or not—to recover from stress and feel their
best. This book sets aside the myths that have held many people back,
and provides a state-of-the-art program for top health.” “Brendan Brazier tells a very
important story, one that is vital for the thousands, even millions, of
individuals who train for athletics only to unnecessarily harm their
body and therefore performance through poor nutrition. Thrive is a must read.” “There is
only one way to be happy in later life and that is to avoid the
degenerative illnesses that inevitably come from eating a standard
diet. Brendan Brazier’s Thrive will increase the micronutrient
density of your eating style and enable you to live longer, live
healthier and thrive.” “Thrive is an inspiring read not just for athletes
but for anyone looking for more energy, vibrancy and just to feel and
even look better. Brendan legitimizes this way of living with easy to
understand research, common sense and most importantly through his own
trial and error. This is a great book!”
