26 Nov 2019 --- As the move toward plant-based diets continues to gather pace, interest in how athletes can thrive without consuming animal-derived foods is piqued.

Featuring big sporting names including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan and Lewis Hamilton, the movie has even convinced the CEO of UK bakery chain Greggs to switch out his meat pies for vegan offerings. In response to this shifting tide, Nutrients has released a special issue entitled “Vegetarian, Vegan Diets and Human Health.” NutritionInsights takes a closer look at some key topics in this space.
