Description

What if you want to do sports while vegan? How realistic is it to be competitive in achieving sports results? Vegan athletes compete with athletes who eat meat if they eat well. Feeding a vegan athlete means that to achieve record sporting results, he or she needs to add products to his or her diet that compensate for the deficiency of other athlete's meat and other animal products. The American Dietetic Association* "Properly designed vegetarian diets, including vegan diets, are healthy and complete, suitable for people of all ages, pregnant and nurturing women, children, teenagers, athletes, and can also help prevent and treat certain diseases" [Position of the American Dietetic Association: vegetarian diets.]" British Food Foundation* "A balanced vegetarian or vegan diet can be complete, but more extreme diets, such as eating raw materials, are often ineffective and do not provide the full range of essential micronutrients, making them completely unacceptable for children. Studies of vegetarian and vegan children in the UK have shown that they develop and grow within normal limits" [Briefing Paper on Vegetarian nutrition.]" "Nutritionists of Canada"* "A properly planned vegetarian diet is healthy, nutritionally complete and can play a positive role in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases" Position of the American Dietetic Association and Dietitians of Canada: Vegetarian diets.
