For Beginners

As a two year vegan, I struggled to finish the book. It is extremely repetitive and the information discussed is widely available on the internet.

The book states facts though and I feel it is intended for new comers to the vegan ways.

Great read for everyone

Reviews the principles of exercise science and sports nutrition in a way that is easy to understand (not too technical or boring). Already enjoying several of the recipes!

AMAZING!

this book can motivate ANYBODY. Even those who are not athletes! I was immediately drawn by the initial content but Dr Greger did the forward put the stamp on it! I heard the entire book in 3 days. this is a good book to pair with a couch to 5k start! now I'll be buying the physical book so I can notate in it.
