Very recently, wealthy sports stars and mega bucks sports organisations are funding this research because it means that they can get the very best out of athletes and sports people to ncrease their fitness and their longevity in the sport

Interestingly the latest research in this field is all pointing to veganism with extracted proteins so you don’t have to digest the animal fats to get the protein requirement


It's interesting that when Dale Vince (owner of Ecotricity and vegan evangelist) bought Forest Green Rovers a few years ago, he insisted that only vegan food was served in the ground and for player's training. It caused a huge kerfuffle at the time, but the team has been going from strength to strength.

Although they are not contractually obliged, many of the players have chosen to follow a vegan diet at home too, because they say they feel better and their performance has improved.

Cauliflower cheese and chips today! Yum Yum.
