Many people put up with things that are unpleasant but tolerable, rather than changing them; their situation needs to become unbearable before they take action

It's not volume, nor is it calories that we biologically hunger for. It's micronutrients. And until we receive enough, the hunger signal will continually urge us to eat. Thankfully, there's a simple fix: nutrient-dense food.

Energy is like money; once spent, it's gone. However, it is possible to make an investment, as opposed to an expenditure, that yields a return.

Being vegan doesn't make you a stronger, better athlete. But it allows you to make yourself a stronger, better athlete.

Since a calorie is a measure of food energy, you may understandably assume that the more calories you consume, the more energy you'll have. I certainly believed that. Conventional sports nutrition books had me convinced of it. Yet, in practice, we see that clearly isn't the case.

The closest you can get to perfection is constant improvement.

Without an adequate supply of micronutrients, not only are we less likely to sleep deeply, recover briskly from exercise, ward off sickness, and fully exploit our brainpower, we get hungry. And we stay hungry.
