\\u201cSomeone asked me how could you get as strong as an ox without eating meat? My answer was, \\u2018have you ever seen an ox eating meat?\\u2019\\u201d - Patrik Baboumian, record-setting Strongman, from The Game Changers.

That is the epiphany of a hulking gentleman who squats the equivalent of five kegs of beer or two and half full-grown panda bears. Baboumian is truly one of the strongest men in the world and he is fueled exclusively a vegan diet.

On this episode of The Exam Room\\u2122 podcast, \\u201cThe Weight Loss Champion\\u201d Chuck Carroll goes one-on-one with Dr. Jim Loomis who is featured in The Game Changers documentary. For years he was tasked with keeping million dollar athletes healthy as a team physician for both the St. Louis Cardinals baseball franchise as well as the Rams NFL franchise.

Loomis reveals the mind-boggling list of foods the average player will eat on game day and why switching their diet could improve their performance on the field.

More importantly, he also details how he overcame a series of health issues after switching to a plant-based diet himself. The change was so dramatic that he was able to complete an iron man triathlon shortly after his 60th birthday!

We also hear from a young man who is trying a plant-based diet for the first time. He is fairly athletic, loves to play sports recreationally, and looking for a little bit of an edge. So what will he discover? Find out with us as we track his \\u201cvegan curious\\u201d journey.
