Re: The World Diet [TheStroBro]
Some interesting stuff regarding boxing and nutrition :

A coach that says meat is great for the athlete state that the problem with a vegan is that he "drag carbohydrate with protein" because most plant rich in protein bring carbohydrates. But for the triathlete i don't see the problem, we need the carbs anyway so why bother ? Also most of the time they have a very low IG so it's all benefit. If you plan your meal with the correct amount of protein and other nutrients, i don't see any downside.
Personaly i'm not vegan just "flexitarian", just trying to eat less meat and no red meat. I started about 2 years ago and had my best triathlon season in 6 really active year in the sport by a long shot. I'm certainly not attributing it exclusively or even at all to nutrition but i least i can say it did not hurt my performance.

About sustainablity you're thinking in absolute. I think just trying to be less of a burden for future generations is already a good start.
