Manage episode 383331287 series 3458063
In this episode of Plant Based Curious, I had the privilege of sitting down with the legendary Brenda Davis, RD, an internationally renowned dietitian who's a trailblazer in the world of plant-based nutrition. Together, we journeyed through the captivating landscape of plant-based proteins. Brenda enlightened me on the actual protein requirements of our bodies and debunked some widely-held myths, especially concerning athletes. One of the most profound moments was hearing about her time in the Marshall Islands and a heartwarming story about her son’s epiphany on food. If you’ve ever wondered about the global perspective on protein or the link between plant-based diets and athletic performance, this conversation is for you. And trust me, after our chat, her book "Plant-Powered Protein" is now on my must-read list!
