It doesn’t get much better than peanut butter da

It doesn’t get much better than peanut butter dates! No need for energy bars when you can quickly slice open a date and fill it with your favorite nut butter. It provides a quick jolt of energy (natural sugar) from the date and a lasting dose of energy (protein) from the nut butter. Enjoy them before, during or after workouts or even as a nighttime treat.

Finally got a gun and it’s changed my life! Been

Finally got a gun and it’s changed my life! Been wanting one for so long and two weeks ago, I finally bit the bullet. My recovery has changed dramatically ever since I got my Theragun PRO. It is absolutely amazing!

For years, I’ve used to use a super hard roller on my legs twice a day (before workouts and in the evening) to loosen up before workouts and bolster recovery after, but the roller does nothing for my back, arms, shoulders and chest. The Theragun allows me to alleviate sore muscles and tightness, dig into trouble spots (like my elbow tendinitis), and speed my post-workout recovery. I also use it quickly to help warmup pre-workout.

While I continue to do one daily session with my hard roller, Theragun is next level and far superior. It’s super easy to use. Wish I had gotten one much sooner! - Rick

She’s a 4-time Olympic gold medal winner and a 4

She’s a 4-time Olympic gold medal winner and a 4-time WNBA champion; she was a leader in the push for equal pay for female athletes; her fiancée is Megan Rapinoe; and on Friday, she had the honor of carrying the US flag during the Tokyo Olympic Games Opening Ceremony. How does this 40 year-old Team USA basketball phenom do it? By eating plants. Yes, Sue Bird is vegan and this plant-powered athlete is most definitely a #vibrantNRGizer.

One of the foods that often comes up when I advise

One of the foods that often comes up when I advise people in the transition to a plant-based diet is eggs. I’ve been recommending Just Egg a lot lately and figured that I should try it myself.

This plant-based egg substitute tastes exactly like scrambled eggs. It’s super easy to cook as is and can be used as an egg substitute when baking. Find it in the refrigerated section. - Rick

Today’s word of the day: Humanewashing. When you

Today’s word of the day: Humanewashing. When you read or hear “humane,” “free range,” “cage free,” “grass fed,” “pasture-raised,” “wild caught” or certifications cited like “animal welfare certified” used in regards to your favorite animal products, it’s just bullshit marketing designed to deceive and hide the brutal cruelty, horrific suffering and premature deaths involved with producing meat, egg and dairy products as well as clothing such as wool.

You see humanewashing every day in ads and social media and on labels and packaging despite the fact that these terms still allow for inhumane practices including long-term confinement, filthy living conditions, virtually no medical care, forced breeding, no outdoor access, electric prods, cutting or burning off horns without pain relief, and stealing new born calves from their mothers. Don’t eat (or wear) deceit.

I could have been dead or at least had a heart att

I could have been dead or at least had a heart attack or a stroke by now if I hadn’t been so vigilant about my nutrition, exercise & stress management.

It’s said that you can’t out exercise a bad diet. What do you say about someone who eats super clean, works out like a beast & is committed to meticulous health & wellness practices yet born with deadly genes?

While I believe it’s weak to use family history as an excuse for poor health habits & laziness, this week I learned that no matter what I do, I cannot overcome my genetic makeup. It’s been a blow to my confidence as a plant-based advocate/athlete & contradicts the research & studies that I’ve done in recent years - before, during & after earning my certificate in plant-based nutrition. Frankly, I’m still struggling to process the fact that my life now depends upon taking a prescription drug when I’ve been taught to use food as medicine. Food alone won’t do anymore in my case.

It’s not the first time that my plant-based nutrition, as healthful as it is, is enough to resolve a serious health condition. Seven years ago, osteoporosis forced me to rely upon daily injections for 2 years. The pill that I now have to take daily will likely need to be taken for the rest of this lifetime - in conjunction with my plant-based diet.

I stopped eating animals 31 years ago and I haven’t eaten animal cholesterol in six years. I exercise 15-20 hours every week. I don’t smoke, drink or do drugs - not even caffeine. I manage my stress & blood pressure via meditation, but my genetic curse is hardening my arteries anyway.

I feel great & don’t have any symptoms. If it wasn’t for the calcium score test that I did recently with my cardiologist, I never would have known…until it was too late.

As Yogananda said, “The body will always find a reason to go (die).” He also taught about surrendering to Divine will. My spiritual shortcoming is evident in my struggle with acceptance since the diagnosis.

Rest assured that I am surrendering & taking the little pills while continuing to eat, train, compete, meditate & live like the “freak” that I’ve always been. - Rick

If you missed seeing “Gunda” in the theater li

If you missed seeing “Gunda” in the theater like we did, the brilliant documentary came out today on Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video and Google Play.

Executive produced by Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix, this beautiful experimental black & white film focuses on a mother pig, a flock of chickens, and a herd of cows. Heartwarming and charming, “Gunda” invites you into the lives of these magnificent creatures, stirring contemplation about animal consciousness and the role humanity plays in it. It’s rated G and suitable for all audiences.

Pills and procedures. Our “healthcare” system

Pills and procedures. Our “healthcare” system is based on prescribing drugs and performing surgeries. Instead of funding and promoting healthier nutrition to empower us to live healthier lives without pills and procedures, the government is funding the harmful food sources consumed by the majority of the population in the Standard American Diet.

According to a 2018 study, 73% of the dairy industry’s income came from government programs even though consuming dairy is linked to causing heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity among other ailments. Most of the $40 billion dollars in government subsidies given to Big Agriculture last year went to factory farming, whose products kill and make us sick via heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity among other illnesses.

When we turn to medical science for help, we find that the majority of the research is funded by the pharmaceutical industry. In addition to funding medical conferences, Big Pharma also funds universities and colleges. The majority of the medical industry and academia are not going to publish scientific studies critical of those who make them rich. Without systemic change, we’re stuck with pills and procedures. It’s a plandemic.
