<\/p>\nA centenarian has attributed his remarkable longevity and athletic prowess to three decades of plant-based eating. <\/p>\n
Mik Fremont, who set a world record marathon at the age of 90, believes his vegan lifestyle has been fundamental to his extraordinary health.<\/p>\n
“At the age of 90, I ran a marathon, I set a world record,” Mike shared in a recent interview with Tyler Waye on YouTube. “It’s simple, the lifestyle that [I] have adopted, which is to eat vegan.”<\/p>\n
The athlete credits his dietary choices as a core factor in both his extended lifespan and his ability to maintain peak physical performance well into his tenth decade.<\/p>\n

Mike’s journey to veganism began following a cancer diagnosis, which he attributes to his previous consumption of animal products.<\/p>\n
“I believe that the food that I ate had contributed to the disease,” Mike told Tyler Waye during the YouTube interview.<\/p>\n
This health crisis prompted a complete dietary transformation that has now lasted over three decades. Mike has maintained strict adherence to plant-based eating since making the switch.<\/p>\n
“I haven’t had any fish or meat in 30, 31 years. No animal protein, just vegetable protein,” he explained.<\/p>\n
The centenarian’s conviction about the link between his former diet and his cancer diagnosis became the catalyst for what he considers a life-saving change.<\/p>\n
Mike advocates for specific plant-based protein sources to maintain optimal health and athletic performance.<\/p>\n
“Broccoli is terrific protein, by the way. Beans, any kind of beans, are a terrific protein,” he stated.<\/p>\n
The centenarian extends his dietary philosophy to competitive sports, suggesting that plant-based nutrition could become essential for athletic success.<\/p>\n
“When major athletic teams go vegan, you know it’s important, it may become the only way they can win,” Mike observed.<\/p>\n
“You want to get the best out of your bodies? Go vegan,” he urged.<\/p>\n
