Mitzi Dulan, Registered Dietitian and owner of NutritionExpert.com has teamed up with NFL tight end Tony Gonzalez to write The All-Pro Diet, just released in stores this week. This isn’t your average muscle-man diet book promoting an 80% protein-based diet… this diet is actually based on sound nutrition principles that anyone can apply to improve performance and live a healthier life.
Here are some tips you’ll find in the book:
1. Eat at least one plant based meal per day.
2. Read food labels and look for foods with ingredients that are easy to pronounce with short ingredient lists or single ingredients.
3. Eat more whole grains, fruits and vegetables
4. Stop eating when satisfied
According to Gonzalez, this diet helped him take his game to the next level, and as a result, he broke two NFL records for most touchdowns and receptions by any tight end in NFL history.
