The more Healthy Hollywood learns about a plant-based diet, the more convinced I am to go green.

We've all heard celebrity meat shunners, like Russell Brand, Lea Michele and Carrie Underwood, credit a vegetarian diet for their healthy state of mind and body. A vegan (or vegetarian) diet is hailed as the key to more energy, better-looking skin, weight loss, and less disease.

Recently, Healthy Hollywood stumbled upon "Thrive Foods," which is a super informative read on a plant-based lifestyle and includes over 200 yummy recipes. "Thrive Foods" is written by Brendan Brazier, who is a professional ironman and founder of the whole food nutritional line, Vega. He is one of the few pro athletes in the world whose diet is 100 percent plant-based. Brazier, who also works with pro athletes and actors, like Hugh Jackman, believes an all-plant diet does a high-performing body good.

Healthy Hollywood interviewed Brendan on the power of a plant-based diet. Here are a few of his insights.

What are the benefits of a plant-based diet?

Having experienced first-hand the power of consuming a whole, plant-based diet, I can tell you that even a small change can help you achieve real health benefits. Adding some clean, quality superfoods--such as kale, spinach, hemp, berries, and sea vegetables--to your daily diet will yield measurable change. Adding more plant-based whole foods to your diet will help decrease body fat, diminish visible signs of aging, boost energy, cultivate mental clarity, enhance mood, eliminate cravings, improve sleep quality, build a stronger immune system, and lower cholesterol.
