Vegan Bodybuilding Diet
A vegan bodybuilder is one who refrains from eating all
animal products, this means no meat, fish, poultry, dairy
or eggs.
Bodybuilders turn to a vegan diet for three main reasons:
ethical, environmental concerns and health benefits.
Ethical - Many vegans feel that it is wrong to
unnecessarily kill and consume animals. They also
point out that, in Western societies today, the animal
product industries are not only cruel, but wasteful and
totally needless. People don't really need to eat animal
products to live, and many vegans feel that we should
be caretakers, rather than tyrants, over the rest of the
world's creatures.
Environmental Concerns - Animal product industries have
been extreemly wasteful of the worlds limited resources.
Many vegans are very concerned about the lack of
conservation and preservation inherent in the production
of animal foods and goods. They believe that, as intelligent
citizens of the planet, to forego animal products is their
responsibility.
Health Benefits - Numerous health benefits are enjoyed by
vegans, including significantly lower incidences of strokes,
heart disease, osteoporosis, most forms of cancer, diabetes,
hypoglycemia, constipation, hemorrhoids, diverticulosis, o
besity, and asthma - all of which are major illnesses found
in affluent societies.
Vegan Bodybuilding Protein Sources
Plant foods contain the very same eight amino acids as
animal foods do, only in differing amounts. As long as
you are getting enough calories from a healthy diet, plant
foods can give you all the amino acids you need, by
themselves or in combination with one another.
Here is a list of foods that contain all of the essential amino
acids, meaning they complete proteins:
GRAINS - Brown rice, oats (cereals - oatmeal, granola, etc.)
millet, corn, barley, bulghur, wheat (including whole wheat
bread, pastas, cereals, flour, etc.)
LEGUMES - Green peas, lentils, chick peas, alfalfa sprouts,
mung beans, and beans of all kinds (kidney, lima, aduki,
navy beans, soy beans and products made from them; e.g.,
tofu, textured vegetable protein granules [Textured Soy
Protein], tempeh, soy milks), peanuts, etc.
GREENS - Broccoli, collards, spinach, etc.
NUTS AND SEEDS - Almonds, cashews, walnuts, filberts,
pistachios, pecans, macadamias and nut butters made
from these. Sunflower seeds, sesame seeds (including
tahini butter made from ground sesame seeds), pumpkin
seeds, etc.
Combining protein rich foods does increases the protein
absorption by about 30%, and thus variety is always the
best strategy in a vegan diet.
Bellow are classic vegan high protein combinations.
These protein rich combinations are meant to replace
meat and dairy products your diet. Two ample helpings
of any of the following combinations average 15 to 35
grams of high quality protein.
Corn Tacos with Pinto Beans
Oat Bran Muffins with Soymilk
Brown Rice with Green Peas and Tofu
Tempeh Burgers on Whole Wheat Bun
Whole Grain Bread with Peanut Butter and Jelly
