plant-based diet, best body, better world

Discover the benefits of a vegan diet as a way to embrace your absolute best and healthiest life. Borges developed his own "22 Laws of Plants, " which he's determined are the most important plant-based diet, exercise, and lifestyle secrets for losing weight, increasing energy, boosting metabolism, and reducing inflammation, not to mention helping minimize your carbon imprint to help the planet. In just weeks you will be on your way to a healthier, cleaner approach to eating that includes plenty of whole grains, bountiful veggies, legumes, nuts and more. -- adapted from publisher info
