Nimai Delgado is an American body builder raised in South Mississippi and was raised vegetarian by his Hindu parents. “Both of my amazing parents are converted Hindus, and I was raised with a strong sense of compassion. Growing up, my diet has always been about 95% vegan, with the exception of dairy products.”

In 2015 he dropped all animal products from his diet. This transformed his life & outlook.

Nimai and I spoke about his life as a full-time bodybuilder and health advocate, growing up in a Hari Krishna family. We also touched on topics such as effective advocacy, dealing with friends and family and the constant shock people experience when they find out he has never eaten meat.

"Thoughts and actions are connected so tightly if we change the act of eating meat and eliminate it from our diet our thoughts on this topic will change."
