I have now come to the conclusion that the health benefits of a mainly raw vegan diet make it the optimum diet for human beings. The amount of processed crap in the average vegan diet, such as meat analogues, not to mention the consumption of large amounts of soy and refined carbs are detrimental to human health. Sprouted quinoa and quinoa have excellent amino acid profiles and are highly conducive to training. Check out powerlifting champion Pat Reeves: http://www.veganbodybuilding.org/pat.htm#diet

It seems some vegans simply eat a plant based diet and don't dispense with animal derived cosmetics/household items etc. Do you think you can truly call yourself vegan if you simply eat a vegan or plant based diet?

Question is, can a man be a feminist?

Congratulations Ed! You look great in those pics! Just goes to show what can be achieved on a vegan diet

That gnocchi recipe looks great! Not something I've made before but I'm sure it tastes wonderful.

I would heartily recommend making your own almond milk, sweetening it with agave nectar. It is perfect chilled as a drink in it own right, or used on cereal such as muesli. Just take care to strain it through a fine mesh, to ensure the milk has no almond meal in it.

My life has been in chaos for the past month, but come May 1st I intend to seriously train my ass off with the intention of gaining a killer body by the end of the year. Is it easy to order the book from the UK Robert?

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Congratulations SeaSiren

Excellent, sounds like you really played a blinder!

Maybe I would eat my fellow companions

Just read the article now Melissa, great stuff and so good to see veganism being promoted in a respected fitness magazine.

Maybe try these forearms exercises? They surely must hit the wrists too:

This is so exciting, I can't wait to finally buy and read it either! Will it be OK getting a copy shipped to the UK?

Avocado a complete protein?!? Surely not?

It is expensive, but so is hemp. At least compared to something like pea protein. I suppose you could always just eat raw pumpkin seeds, I like them on muesli personally.
