‘‘Where do you get your protein?’ is the most common question I have been asked as a vegan athlete for more than a quarter of a century. But over the years, this question is being asked less frequently, because of people like Sharon, and books like this, which sufficiently answers the question, based on evidence. Sharon Wallenberg outlines how easy it is to reach our protein requirements on a plant-based diet. Not only have I been following a plant-based diet and vegan lifestyle for more than 25 years, but I became a champion bodybuilder in the process. If a champion bodybuilder can get enough protein on a plant-based diet, you can too. No meat has been no problem for me. I was able to build my body with plants, and show the world that plants have all the protein we need. This book will open your eyes to the wonderful world of plants.”

“There are times when a belief is held to be self-evident and goes unquestioned, only to later become revealed to be so ill-founded that it seems unthinkable that it was ever believed. This is true of our society’s preoccupation with animals as food sources. In this book Sharon Wallenberg dismantles the myth section by section, establishing the truth behind the assumptions. All the headlines you will have heard are discussed in a no-holds barred evaluation. We discover that plants have protein. You can live healthily as a vegan. You can avoid disease. Veganism is no barrier to elite sports performance. Animal agriculture is not compatible with environmental sustainability. Animal farms are not acceptable regarding welfare standards. Milk is not better. From here we have to see what vegans eat, and if you thought it was just lentils and lettuce, Sharon has good news! By drawing recipes from around the world, she discovers some meal suggestions that everyone will benefit from. The time has come to question why animal food products have become established as the norm, and what the alternative is. The journey to discovery lies in this book.”
