"The Vegetarian Sports Nutrition Guide"

Paper Summary:

This paper explains how in "The Vegetarian Sports Nutrition Guide", author Lisa Dorfman outlines the basics of a nutrition plan geared towards turning your body into a "plant-based sports machine." Dorfman firmly believes that athletes can develop both strength and endurance on a vegetarian diet. It shows how she believes that people do not need to eat meat to develop strong, healthy bodies and to help a reader make the transition, she has written chapters devoted to calculating energy needs and recommendations for carbohydrate, protein, fat, fluids, vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals and dietary supplements.

Known as the "Running Nutritionist," Dorfman is an elite marathoner and triathlete, in addition to being a registered dietician with a Master's degree in Nutrition. A vegetarian since her teens, Dorfman credits her lifestyle as the major factor in her second place finish in the Olympic Marathons in Atlanta, as well as her top finishes in marathons and triathlons around the world."
