We are psyched to have a chance to talk to vegan triathlete Brendan Brazier. The radio station equipment goes a little haywire and we lose Brendan early on, which gives Jilian a chance to give us a lesson on iron absorption. Once we get Brendon back we talk about his Thrive diet, the vegan sports nutrition company he founded called Vega, his take on protein, and how to fuel the body on a plant based diet.

Vegan Radio Folgen
Vegan Radio is a show about vegan culture; animal rights, healthy diet, food and lifestyle, and how they fit into the broader issues of environmentalism, spirituality, politics, and social justice. We bring an entertaining and sometimes humorous perspective to the subjects of diet, animal rights, arts, media, and personal ethics in a global world. Vegan Radio aims to be a show that omnivores will enjoy as much as vegetarians and vegans, to help raise these connected issues in a way that doesn't put people off. We often feature a musical guest.
