Going 100% Plant-Based for a Healthier You and a Healthier Planet

Going plant-based is not just good for you, it's good for the health of our planet.

Many climate scientists and economists believe that if we want to address climate change and save the planet, we need to change what we put on our tables, and how we mass-produce food. Check out the documentary, Vegan 2019, sponsored by abillionveg, a “diverse social community of vegans and non-vegans changing the world, one vegan dish and product review at a time.” ​

But it's not just scientists and academics that are discovering the benefits of a plant-based diet. James Wilks, an elite Special Forces trainer and The Ultimate Fighter winner, traveled the world on a quest to uncover the optimal diet for human performance across a variety of sports and military disciplines. Check out the documentary The Game Changers streaming now on Netflix. It's a revolutionary film project about meat, protein, and strength presented by James Cameron, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan, Lewis Hamilton, Novak Djokovic and Chris Paul.

How to go 100% Plant-Based in the New Year

If you've ever been curious about the health benefits of eating a 100% plant-based diet, we've got a couple of healthy-eating challenges for you to choose from.

The Forks Over Knives Fresh Start Challenge

Join us for the Forks Over Knives (FOK) Fresh Start Challenge and commit to eating a healthy 100% plant-based diet for 21 days. The free challenge started on Saturday, January 4th, but it's still worth looking into and jumping on board.

Created by Brian Wendel, Forks Over Knives is a 2011 documentary and accompanying book that became a New York Times #1 bestseller. Subsequently, it's become a movement that encourages people to adopt a plant-based diet and regain control of their health and their lives.
