Being plant-powered does not mean underpowered, rather, it can be a superpower. In the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, this statement holds true for many athletes competing. By sticking to plant-based diets, these competitors are getting the nutrition they need to perform at their peak. By combining incomplete proteins such as lentils and grains, as used in NoBull Burgers, we can get full nutritional benefits, without any animal products or excess cholesterol.
