Plant-Based Protein Resources

You might be surprised by the number of grams of protein you receive from plants. My personal training clients in Denver can attest to their value! / Photo: Mike


 

DIETARY CONSIDERATIONS

Typically, my articles are a bit longer, but this one is a short and sweet list for my personal training clients, from meat eaters to plant indulgers. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, we should always include a level of plant-based protein. These sources are packed with vitamins, micronutrients, and fiber, often missing in their animal counterparts. Check out the resource list below and begin chipping away at your old diet to create a nutrient-dense eating approach that reduces inflammation and promotes longevity.
