I started looking into other areas of research around all this: Lewis Hamilton

As reported by LIVEKINDLY, Hamilton has proudly endorsed the plant-based diet he uses in his personal life. He explains why he took to veganism and how it is impacting his body currently.

“We’re taught to drink milk and eat meat protein and I started looking into other areas of research around all this. The first thing was, what’s happening to the animals? Secondly, the impact it can have on your body. That’s a free advantage I’m going to take. If no one else wants it, well, that’s their loss,” said Lewis.

“It’s crazy. I’m not putting more weight on because, with this new plant-based diet, I can have more carbs which is contradictory of what you’d normally have thought diet-wise, but I’m not going to complain, I love pancakes so it’s great,” said the Mercedes driver.

Well, more and more athletes are turning to the vegan lifestyle to improve their health and eating habits. It is essential for sports people at the top, such as Hamilton, to always stay in great shape.

Let’s see how many more drivers on the grid in the coming years turn to veganism. Hopefully, they will get the same results as the 7-time world champion by going vegan.
