Montell Owens Named Ambassador For Vega Vegan Supplements
Written by Vegetarian Star on July 24th, 2012 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Food & Drink.
Montell Owens of the Jacksonville Jaguars has been named ambassador for Vega, a line of vegan protein powders, nutrition bars and other supplements created by vegan triathlete Brendan Brazier.
Owens was inspired by his wife’s vegetarianism. She introduced him to Brazier’s best-selling book, Thrive. He later realized that Vega products would be the perfect supplement to his plant-based training diet.
“I’m excited that more and more elite athletes are incorporating plant-based, whole foods into their training routines,” said Brazier. “I have enjoyed working with Montell over the years and can’t wait to watch him achieve even more success in the future. The Vega Ambassador Program is gaining an extraordinary advocate.”
The Vega Ambassador Program is designed for athletes in the top of their field who use Vega to reach their athletic goals.
From the Vega website:
“Vega Ambassadors thrive in athletics and in life, by fueling their bodies with natural, plant-based nutrition. They are personable and have high integrity. Vega athletes do not necessarily come in top place all the time, but love to compete and truly believe in our products as a means of higher performance. Ultimately, they are eager to share that experience with others.”
