Building your muscles on a plant-based diet is possible, and despite what you might have heard, it does not require extra effort compared to muscle-building on a meat-based diet.
Getting your daily dose of omega-3s while decreasing your omega-6 intake will go a long way in reducing inflammation, preventing disease, and improving your overall health.
Eating a whole food, plant-based diet is great, but it’s even better coupled with core conditioning, which can help your posture and relieve joint and low back pain. With a handful of core-strengthening exercises, you can feel great and avoid pain and injury.
A lot of people are living with joint pain, and many of them don’t need to be. While physical therapy is the standard of care, some thoughtful changes to your diet can have a notable impact.
