What Chris has to say about Vega: I saw Brendan Brazier speak at the Toronto Vegetarian Food Fair a couple years ago. Coming from an athlete's perspective everything he spoke about made perfect sense to me. That day I picked up Thrive Diet and my first container of Vega and gradually incorporated it into my everyday health and training routine. The positive changes that came, came quick and were abundant. My training and recovery skyrocketed and I was quickly surpassing my fellow peers and athletes in all areas (technique, strength, conditioning, cardio) based on my ability to recover and train harder. I 100% credit this to the positive 'Thrive' based additions I brought into my regime, Vega being the biggest one of them all. Training two or three times a day, six days a week is big commitment of both time and energy and having a health food product like Vega that is so extremely convenient but doesn't compromise on quality of ingredients is essential and something I'd never experience before. Vega products have become a very essential and welcome addition to my life.
