Re: Plant Based News ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‡๐Ÿ ๐ŸŽ

These athletes can endorse anything. 

So itโ€™s cool they chose a product so โ€˜180โ€™ of what society deems

as unusual...and dispels any โ€˜weakโ€™ athlete myths.

 

Encouraging to see athletes embrace the Plant Based lifestyle.

It reduces inflammation...and allows quicker recovery.

Win-win.

It's great that many athletes are embracing plant based eating but Beyond Meat is very high in fat from canola and coconut oils so I am surprised @sidsmom would promote it.

 

I am all for animal free options, but IMO Beyond Meat is the wrong direction.

You can speak to me, directly...especially since youโ€™ve tagged me.

This thread, with almost 900 posts, is news only. 

Yes, I agree many processed meat alternatives are not healthy...

especially soy isolate & oils, but the idea of the article, if read,

is the idea top-level professional athletes are embracing 

an alternate way of eating...hence, the positive Plant Based News.

Itโ€™s all for the greater good. ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ’›

I didn't think you would agree that Beyond Meat is "the future of protein".

 

I just think this article, which pushes this product, isn't in anyone's health interests.

Now this is more plant based news!

This location is Central Market South in Austin.

Amazing how quickly this WOE has exploded in recent years.

Large grocery store real estate specifically for PB!

Yay!

Cool to see so many pro athletes ditching the Dairy,

lessening their inflammation & extending their playing

career in the long run...all because of a change in diet.

Good article on the โ€˜live kindlyโ€™ website. Screenshots below

are just a short snippet of the full article. If youโ€™re interested

in less inflammation, this article might be a good place to start.

Interesting.  

Itโ€™s only 1 day a week but can be viewed it as a financial & ethical

move for a public school system. Will it be healthy?๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Need more details but itโ€™s definitely something different...

and plant based news.
