Praise for Thrive Fitness :
“It's refreshing to read a book on fitness and nutrition written by someone who has successfully followed his own advice, rather than the point of view of a dispassionate scholar.”
—Canadian Running Magazine
Praise for The Thrive Diet :
"An authoritative guide to outstanding performance, not just in top-level athletics, but in day-to-day life… A state-of-the-art program for top health."
—Neal Barnard, M.D., President, Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine
"Brendan Brazier has a knack for simplifying the connection between diet and health. He makes his points clearly, obviously culled from much research."
—Ottawa Citizen
"During my career I've always surrounded myself with people who are the best in their field, whether it's my triathlon coach, an exercise scientist or massage therapist I've always sought the advice and guidance of individuals with a passion for excellence who never compromise. Brendan is simply the best nutritionalist I've found; his knowledge is second to none. I read The Thrive Diet and was enthralled that after reading so many books and meeting with so many experts, Brendan was able to explain his thoughts on nutrition in such a clear and insightful way. My Thrive Diet copy rests alone in the kitchen, tattered pages stained with beet juice and hemp oil. I only hope my competition doesn't read this book until after I'm done competing"
—Simon Whitfield, Olympic gold medalist (triathlon, Sydney 2000)

Brazier explains in a clear and concise manner how we can all dramatically reduce our carbon footprint simply by shifting our dependants away from energy-intensive animal-based agriculture to one that is plant-based.”
