F1 driver Lewis Hamilton - IPA Agency / Starface

Lewis Hamilton decided to go vegan in 2017. A way for the Formula 1 driver to feel better, both in mind and body.

The sportsman first made this choice to improve his physical condition while he was facing energy fluctuations. "Veganism has eradicated this problem," he said in an interview with GQ. When I was 22, it was raw talent. You have an abundance of energy, you are in good shape, you have no pain or aches. "

A new horizon

The vegan diet allowed Lewis Hamilton to improve his digestion, and thus his sleep.

"Your stomach is your second brain," he continued. You are told to drink milk and eat meat for protein, but I started to look in other directions. It is a free advantage that I reserve for myself. If no one else wants it, too bad for them. "
