ReviewsDave Zabriskie, professional cyclist, Tour De France stage winner, and record holder of the fastest time trial in Tour De France history " Thrive is an eye-opening and a life-changing book. It should replace bibles in hotels."
SynopsisThe highly original plant-based diet and lifestyle plan for achieving maximum health, physical strength, and mental dexterity, developed by a top professional Ironman triathlete., The thrive diet is a long-term eating plan to help all athletes (professional or not) develop a lean body, sharp mind, and everlasting energy. As one of the few professional athletes on a plant-based diet, Brendan Brazier researched and developed this easy-to-follow program to enhance his performance as an elite endurance competitor. Brazier clearly describes the benefits of nutrient-rich foods in their natural state versus processed foods, and how to choose nutritionally efficient, stress-busting whole foods for maximum energy and health. Featuring a 12-week meal plan, over 100 allergen-free recipes with raw food options--including recipes for energy gels, sport drinks, and recovery foods--and a complementary exercise plan, The Thrive Diet is "an authoritative guide to outstanding performance" (Neal D. Barnard, M.D., Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine).
