Facial friend Wu Jason asked with a brief message the day before yesterday (2022-10-30): "I don't know how the professor comments on this book, thank you."

The link he sent was a book displayed by the Book Bureau on the blog. It was published on 2022-11-4. Its name is "Vegetarian Sportsman: Top-notch Seller, Medical Expert's Certification, Create a Healthier Body through Plant-based Diets." This book is translated from the plant-Based Athlete: A Game-Changing Approach to Peak Performance, published on 2021-6-15.

This book claims that many top-notch athletes follow pure vegetarianism, and these athletes also publicly say that their extraordinary achievements are to make a pure vegetarian diet. But, is this really the case? What is the proportion of pure vegetarian food among top sportsmen? Is there one percent? What's more, the several athletes listed in this book are not pure vegetarian at all, or have given up pure vegetarian food, or have stopped their careers because of their pure vegetarianism.

So, it should be understandable that these three star players will publicly announce that they are pure vegetarian. At least, it is certain that more than 400 other current players and more than 4,000 retired NBA players did not publicize that they were pure vegetarian.

SB NATION published Damian Lillard ends vegan diet because he lost ‘a little bit too much weight’ (Damian Lillard ended up pure vegan diet because he lost ‘ (Damian Lillard ended pure vegetarian diet because he lost too much weight’): "Damian Lillard was one of the first players to publicly disclose their choice of vegetarian diet during the off-season.

We get all nine in animal foods.” For athletes like Cam, I think it's hard to meet his needs. "

In fact, since no team signed a contract with him this year, Cam Newton, who is only 33, is already in retirement status.. In contrast, another more famous quarterfinal, Tom Brady, now 45, is still playing. He has won the most Super Cup champions in history (7), but he is not pure vegetarian.

I went to Novak Café & Restaurant's website and found that there was steak in the menu.
