"While adopting a more plant-based diet won't solve all of the
problems in our food system, it's a step in the direction of
improved health and sustainability. This guide from Men's Health
offers the background information you need to get started and the
practical day-to-day recipe ideas to keep going. I admire anyone
who takes the time to read this book."
—Ryan Andrews, R.D., C.S.C.S. and author of A Guide to Plant-Based
Eating
“This book is a must-have for anyone who is looking to level-up
their diet with plants...which should basically be everyone. I'm a
huge fan of plant-forward eating, and Men's Health has hit the nail
on the head with Men’s Health Plant-Based Eating with simple,
delicious recipes and beautiful photos. I'm looking forward to
making pretty much every single thing in this book.”
—Abby Langer RD, author of Good Food, Bad Diet
“Plant-forward eating is certainly a smart approach and the recipes
within these pages make it not only possible, but amazingly tasty
as well. Plants offer fiber and an abundance of nutrients, and
enjoying them regularly fills you up, too. We sometimes get so
caught up in eating the biggest, juiciest steak that we forget
about balancing the plate with colorful goodness.”
—Chris Mohr, Ph.D., R.D.
“Regardless of the diet trend of the season, we can always say that
eating more plants is a good thing. Even as dietary guidelines
change, there is always a greater emphasis on increased plants in
our diet. This book serves a valuable resource on how to introduce
savory plant-based eating into your regimen. You don’t have to be
vegetarian or vegan to give plants the proper prominent space they
deserve in your diet.”
—Fatima Cody Stanford, M.D., MPH, MPA, FAAP, FACP, FAHA, FTOS
"Too often we turn healthy eating habits into rigid rules, and
unfortunately, plant-based nutrition is no exception. That's why
Men's Health Plant-Based Eating is a breath of fresh air. It
leverages plant-based foods to create a healthy diet that supports
performance, rather than pseudoscientific fear-mongering to scare
you into excluding everything else. If you want to learn how to
incorporate more fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, tubers,
lentils, beans, and all the other nutrient rich-plant based foods
you've previously struggled to fit into your diet, this is the book
for you."
—Eric Helms PhD, CSCS, professional bodybuilder
“Science tells us that improving our diet can improve our mood. If
you’re looking for ways to eat better, Plant-Based Eating is your
answer (even if you're not a vegetarian). Recipes are
straight-forward and delicious. Read on and move a step closer to a
healthy body and a healthy mind.”
—Gregory Scott Brown, M.D., psychiatrist and wellness advocate
“The Men's Health Plant-Based Eating book has a tremendous amount
to offer. For over a decade, I've been fortunate enough to work
with numerous professional sports teams, and have a meal or
two in their nutrition and dining centers. Over the years, there
has been a definite shift in these elite nutritional labs to a more
plant-based diet. Gone are the ideas that elite performance
requires meat or that a plant-based diet is an incomplete source of
nutrients and fueling."
—Christopher Winter, M.D., president, Charlottesville Neurology and
Sleep Medicine
"Men's Health Plant-Based Eating with Paul Kita highlights a diet
rich in phytochemicals to enhance immunity and protect against
infections, cancer, and many other health conditions. This
lifestyle approach has more scientific evidence to support its
efficacy than any other diet. Because of this, the American College
of Lifestyle Medicine recommends a plant-based diet over any other
for improved health and longevity."
—Michael Fredericson, M.D., professor and director PM&R Sports
Medicine
“Emphasizing plant derived foods is a powerful tool for achieving
and sustaining health. And this is an incredibly user-friendly,
inclusive guide that not only details why a more plant-based
approach to nutrition offers so many advantages, but more
importantly reveals how each of us can leverage this knowledge with
satisfied smiles on our faces!”
—David Perlmutter, M.D., New York Times bestselling author of Grain
Brain
“In Men’s Health Plant-Based Eating you get to discover the rich
world of plants, and the incredible benefits they provide. You’ll
expand your cooking repertoire with a wide array of adventurous and
flavorful plant-rich meals sure to wow your family and friends. In
the end, this book will enrich and expand your perception of a
plant-based diet, and give you the tools you need to easily become
more plant-based, all without having to give up meat.”
—Brian St. Pierre, MS, RD, CSCS
