Being vegan is not only about a plant-based diet. It means taking a whole new look at health, fitness, lifestyle choices and the world. Christina Pirello not only advocates the development of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment, but, also, promotes their impact on wellness. Beyond the value of eating whole and organic foods, Pirello explores a host of subjects from nutrition and fitness to education and emotional well-being as she helps readers take control of their lives and achieve their personal goals, whether they want to lose weight, regain health and vitality or simply look and feel better. Featuring a 28-day nutrition and fitness plan, THIS CRAZY VEGAN LIFE, also, includes sample menus and more than 100 delicious and easy-to-prepare low-glycaemic, phyto-nutrient-rich, high-fibre, wellbalanced vegan recipes that emphasise good carbs and good fat.
In 1983, Christina Pirello was diagnosed with an acute form of leukaemia. With little prospect of help from conventional therapies, she turned to a nutritional programme using a whole foods approach. Christina Pirello, now more than 15 years cancer-free, is an author and a TV presenter.
