Hug A Vegan Day, September 27, 2013




Happy Hug A Vegan Day, today September 27!

Errrr..........you may say, What IS a Vegan? A vegan is an individual who does not consume or use any animal products. Does it make eating a challenge?



It requires research. Here's a great site for that: The Vegetarian Resource Group

The 3 prime reasons people choose a vegan way of eating are:

1. Health
2. Environmental
3. Animal Rights

Be Ready For Summer Activities & Adventures With a Superfood Sports Performance System

You might have read a recently published article about how Scientists reveal the 'Healthiest Meal' ever; made up of the most nutritious foods and some Superfoods.

With summer to begin tomorrow and with high heat indexes and temps already happening in many parts of the country, if you are an outdoor enthusiast, have you considered how you are going to fuel yourself for your activities, recover after your activity and protect yourself during your activity?

If you are interested in being healthy, consuming Superfoods and protecting your body from the oxidative stress which occurs during exercise. then you'll want a reputable Sports Performance System.

If you are not familiar with this term, 'Oxidative Stress', according to Webster's dictionary, it simply means the physiological stress on the body caused by the cumulative damage done by free radicals inadequately neutralized by antioxidants which occurs during exercise, illness, aging etc. In layman's terms, when you exercise, 'free-radicals' or reactive, renegade atoms in the body, through natural bodily processes, can damage your cells and alter their chemical structure.

In order to minimize this damage, consuming Antioxidants [substances that inhibit and minimize the reactions and damage by the Free Radicals]  in superfoods and ingesting Superfood Supplements.

Brendan Brazier, a vegan Canadian Professional Ironman Triathlete has created the Vega Sports Performance System which has fueled his own success.

Plant-Based Nutrition Expert & Professional Triathlete-Florida Seminars



In 2004 when I penned my article titled, "Can The Vegan/Vegetarian Lifestyle Sustain The Goals of An Active-Living Individual?",  I mentioned Brendan Brazier  as a successful professional vegan Ironman and Triathlete. I knew of him through my employment affiliation at the Alive Academy of Natural Health and his vegan nutrition products at the Vancouver Wellness Show.


I recently discovered that Brendan will be appearing 5 x from Jan 24-28/11 in various Florida locations so I wanted to notify my Floridian readers to give opportunity to attend.


Professional triathlete, plant-based nutrition expert, and bestselling author, Brendan Brazier shares how to thrive on a whole foods, plant-based diet.
