Meat makes you strong? Is that even true? Rip Esselstyn says no. He is a successful triathlete, former fireman, and son of the famous heart researcher Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn. In his new book "Stronger than Meat," he disenchants nutritional myths and convincingly demonstrates why a plant-based diet is the best choice for humans in every respect, including for athletes. Natalie Portman, James Cameron, and Mike Tyson are just a few celebrities who are already convinced plant eaters. To be a whole guy or a strong woman with strong bones, you don't need meat or dairy products, says Esselstyn. Plants provide sufficient calcium and iron, along with many other essential nutrients that the human body needs. The bestselling author explains in an entertaining, direct way why meat, milk, and other animal products are not necessary for us.
