Olympic track star Carl Lewis shares with you how a "vegan" diet enabled him to become a super athlete...
He learned from Dr. John McDougall to choose foods that are very low in fat and high in fiber. He discovered he could eat plenty of food, yet keep his calories low.
Carl's diet of lentils, starches, vegetables and fruit enabled him to reach his peak athletic performance and become, in the words of Sports Illustrated, "the best track and field athlete ever."
"I’ve found that a person does not need protein from meat to be a successful athlete. In fact, my best year of track competition was the first year I ate a vegan diet. Moreover, by continuing to eat a vegan diet, my weight is under control, I like the way I look. (I know that sounds vain, but all of us want to like the way we look.) I enjoy eating more, and I feel great."
