The Thrive Diet

Now in Stores and rising to the ranks of this year's next bestseller.

Great fact you should know:

Unlike most “diet” books the Thrive Diet includes a chapter that addresses the huge environmental strain of food production and delivery. In fact, food production and its transportation is the number-one draw on fossil fuel, more so than any other industry. Therefore it is the greatest contributor to artificial global warming. “The Thrive Diet for a Healthy Environment” chapter explains how we can significantly reduce our personal appetite for fossil fuel by shifting to a plant-based diet.

Over 100 easy to prepare, tasty, and guiltless recipes.
An indispensible glossary of must have power foods.
A "Who wouldn't want to follow this" 12 week meal plan.

Chances are you are putting your body through nutritional stress. Don't you think it's time for that to end.

LESS TALK MORE ACTION

Youth Action Montreal is a non-for-profit coalition of young people determined to work towards creating a sustainable future.

Sustainability is defined as, “meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.” We must be mindful of the consequences of our actions. The rate that we consume non-renewable resources and our disastrous neglect for the footprint we leave will end up compromising future generation’s needs for our short-term benefit. We must act swiftly, act strongly, and act together.
