In an interview this week with VegNews magazine, celebrity trainer Bob Harper announced he has gone from being vegetarian to a pure plant-based diet. Mr. Harper became renowned as a fitness trainer on the NBC television network’s popular reality series, “The Biggest Loser,” where contestants compete to see who can lose the most weight. Mr. Harper, already a long-time vegetarian, advocates avoidance of meat-based protein, recommending show contestants to eat mostly plant-based foods instead.

Regarding his own vegan choice, he stated, “I enjoy living a plant-based diet because it makes me feel clear headed and strong, not to mention my genetically high cholesterol dropped more than 100 points.
That was all the motivation I needed.”

 Bravo to your life-affirming decision to be vegan, Mr. Bob Harper! May your inspiration and model of health help many others transition to the same for a more humane and sustainable world.
