After researching the benefits of a vegan diet, Clinton explained that “82 percent of people who have done [a vegan diet] have begun to heal themselves. Their arterial blockage cleans up. The calcium deposit around their heart breaks up.”
On the flip side, Hugh Jackman (who is getting ready to film the Wolverine sequel) may get into action hero shape with the help of a vegan diet. Jackman is set to work with vegan nutritionist Brendan Brazier, who is a triathlete, author, and creator of the plant-based products called Vega. Jackman who was on a heavily chicken-based diet for the original Wolverine film also incorporated Brazier’s Vega products in order to bulk up.
Now, for the sequel Brazier says “There’s a very good chance [he’ll go vegan], and even if he doesn’t completely, a large amount of his diet will be. And I think that’s huge. I mean he’s not going to be eating all this chicken; he’s going to build up naturally.”
Just goes to show whether you’re a former president striving to stay healthy or a hunky action star trying to beef up, a vegan diet can be a versatile way of life.
