Add all the carrots to the food processor and pulse 5 times. Add the remaining base ingredients into a food processor and blend until mixture is sticky and holds together.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

If you’re new to my channel, my name is Leif Arnesen. I’m an engineer-turned-nutrition-nerd and the founder of The Vegan Gym.

In 2014, a rare cancer diagnosis forced me to completely rethink my life. I adopted a whole-food, plant-based diet, and a few months later, after watching Earthlings, I went vegan overnight — not just for my health, but for the animals.

At first, I struggled to lose fat and get fit as a vegan. But after diving deep into the science, I built a system that transformed my body and my life. That journey led me to start a blog in 2017, which eventually became The Vegan Gym.

Now, our team is on a mission to help 1,000,000 vegans get into the best shape of their lives because we believe that the more healthy, fit vegans there are in the world, the faster veganism will spread.

Let’s work together to inspire change, spread compassion, and thrive on plants! 💪🌱

WHAT I EAT IN A DAY AS A VEGAN WHEN I WFH👩‍💻 #whatieatinaday #wfh #veganfood #vlog #veganrecipes

Still Vegan? Watch This. Then Decide.

Is a plant-based diet actually optimal for human health or is that a marketing claim dressed up as science?

In this video, I break down the biochemistry of vegan and vegetarian diets with zero sugarcoating. We cover the real history of the plant-based movement (it starts with religious anti-masturbation crusades in the 1800s), the Expensive Tissue Hypothesis and how meat built the human brain, the difference between PDCAAS and DIAAS protein scoring, anti-nutrients like phytates, oxalates, and lectins, the BCMO1 genetic mutation affecting 45% of the population, the EPIC-Oxford fracture data, and what a strict vegan diet does to your hormones, bones, and cognition.

This is not an anti-vegan hit piece. This is a clear-eyed look at what the science actually says and a practical guide to what you must supplement if you’re eating plant-based.
