The thrive diet created by professional ironman, Brendan Brazier, and is based on following a vegan diet to achieve optimal performance and health.
The program is designed for anyone, vegan regardless if you are an athlete or not.
Can this plant based diet limited to improve performance and allow for a balanced diet?
The thrive diet that allows no dairy, gluten, wheat, soybeans, corn, refined sugar, or animal products. Special energy gels and sports drinks are allowed, however. Foods that are particularly recommended pulses, vegetables, seeds, grains, fruits, nuts and oils. Lower body fat and increase muscle toneDecrease signs of energy and mental agingIncrease sleepImprove clarityIncrease systemLower cholesterolDecrease moodStrengthen immune junk food cravingsThe main battle when vegan and soy is locate the how to get high-quality protein in your diet. Brendan is a legume-specific meals to add in homemade energy bars and smoothies to sneak to additional complete proteins. This can be done, but it is difficult to consume more than 80 grams/nut/legumes in one day.The only other concern is sufficient vitamin and mineral intake. If after the diet, you may need additional of B12, vitamin D, calcium, zinc, and iron.
This diet will probably reduce your cholesterol, cholesterol-free diet is practically and will likely lower your body fat percentage, given that you will eat fewer calories. I'm doubtful the diet could improve the immune system or sleep very habits, but seem reasonable, all other claims.
Since the diet is fairly restrictive, it is difficult for the average man to follow. Needs more time, energy and money to prepare a diet like this. This can be done, but we must get enough focuses on calories, protein and fuels for your lifestyle.
