Simple, Hearty, and Delicious: How to Build a Plant-Based Diet that Works for Busy Athletes

However you choose to describe yourself, plant-based, vegan, plant-curious, flexitarian, or omnivore, there's overwhelming evidence that eating a diet that is made of mostly whole plant foods is ideal for health and longevity.

But how do you actually do that well?  Especially as an athlete?

Let’s find out.

Today, we are going down under speaking with Kate Galli of Strong Body Green Planet.  She’s a vegan health coach, personal trainer and author, who’s helped thousands of people transform their bodies and their plates.

In this conversation, we’ll go over:

What the common struggles are going to an animal-free diet and how to overcome them,

How to create a simple, sustainable, and delicious plant-based lifestyle, and of course,

We’ll address the protein issue:  how much you need as a runner and how to easily get it from plants.

Kate also opens up about some really touching topics that I was not expecting.

So if you’re ready to figure out the plant-based puzzles in your life, this one is for you.
