WELCOME TO THE BODYHD FITNESS STARTER GUIDE TO GOING VEGAN THE RIGHT WAY!
First, let me offer my sympathies. If friends & family have yet to heckle you for adopting a new lifestyle… you will soon endure opinions unasked.
FOR EXAMPLE:
You can’t get protein from plants.”
“Meat makes you stronger!”
“Vegans are sickly and weak.”
And the thing is - they’re right!
(IF you do Veganism the wrong way.)
Vegans are chiefly concerned with animal welfare. It’s the cornerstone of our practice!
So many neglect the nutrients needed to build a strong, healthy body.
Even long-time Vegans opt for the empty calories in Lays Potato Chips and saturated fat in an “Impossible Whopper”.
2 BUT THE GAME CHANGERS FILM PROVED
THAT PLANTS ARE PERFECT FUEL FOR HIGH
PERFORMANCE ATHLETES!
I know this personally because I’m a 3x Pro Vegan Bodybuilder.
I’ve helped over 100 heroes ease into a plant-powered diet to build, carve, shape, & tone jaw-dropping physiques that silence critics.
You can catch me on BBC’s “Veganville”.

11 Vegan Protein Options
WANT TO KNOW You don’t need to be Vegan to enjoy Vegan foods. Sometimes my clients in transition will feed A DEVILISH their family these staples - and they are none the SECRET? wiser!
(Or they know and love it!)
The only products they abstain from are Red Beef, ShellFish, and Dairy.
“BUT KORIN, WHY ARE THESE SO BAD?”
You may ask.
Ethics aside, the American Heart Association (AMA) and International Agency to Research on Cancer (IARC) has found both processed and red meat carcinogenic!
Just like cigarettes…
THEY CAUSE COLON CANCER AND HEART DISEASE!
12 Two leading causes of death in the western world.
Hot dogs, ham, bacon, sausages, deli meats, beef, pork, lamb, and goat are off the menu!
I believe in eating clean & healthy. Try adding more plant-based foods to your diet. And if transitioning, do it slowly.

*Get Everything Non-GMO and Organic As Possible.
Tofu LET’S GET THIS OUT OF THE WAY: TOFU WON’T GIVE GUYS TITS!
#1 It is made from soybeans and extremely high in protein. Tofu has “phytoestrogens”, which are different from the human hormone. This decreases the risk of cancer and blocks estrogen. (According to the US National Library Medicine)
Tempeh or Hemp Tempeh (SOY AND GLUTEN -FREE)
*Made from soy, barley, millet, and rice. #2 There are many alternatives versions made with Hemp. Great source of probiotics.
13 Vital Wheat Gluten Wheat Gluten is the protein found in wheat. It’s extremely high in protein and bread, seitan, and #3 many more foods can be created from it.
Alternative Meats or “Mock Meats” Alternative Meats are very high in protein. #4 They are great for new Vegans and very helpful for transitioning. Great replacement to animal protein. There are many food companies that make a huge variety.
Example: Gardein, Beyond Meat, Field Roast, Tofurkey, Boca, and Many More! Located in many local food stores.
Hemp Seeds High in protein and also a great source of omega 3’s Best protein source for individuals that has #5 allergens towards nuts, dairy, gluten, and sugar.
Seitan Extremely high in protein. It’s used as a great #6 meat alternative. Made from wheat gluten. 14 I Have A Confession…
Everything in this guide will get you started on your plant-based journey. Yet there is so much more to being Vegan.
IN FACT, THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE YOU WILL FAIL.
How do I know this?
Because as a Vegan coach who’s trained over 100 superhero clients, I’ve seen what happens when others lonewolf it.
They lack support (just 0.5% of U.S. adults are Vegan!) and get discouraged.
BUT THE FACTS People who regress to eating meat beef up odds ARE IN: of heart disease by 146% (NutritionFacts).
Pun intended.
It personally took me 2 years to transition from eating fish to true Veganism.
As a competitor, I had to ensure my diet was on point!
