Mike Tyson On “Oprah: Where Are They Now?”
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 5th, 2013 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Food & Drink.
Mike Tyson will be featured in a segment on Oprah: Where Are They Now? on Tuesday, April 9 at 10pm EST/PST on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.
A transcript from the episode shows Tyson is still as excited as ever to share how a vegan diet has improved his health and life.
Tyson is quoted as saying:
“I lost weight, I dropped over a hundred pounds. Um, I just felt like changing my life, doing something different. And, so I became a vegan. Becoming a vegan it gave me another, um, opportunity to live a healthy life. And I was just hard wheel, so congested from all the drugs and bad cocaine, and I couldn’t hardly breathe, high blood pressure, almost dying, and arthritis. And, once I became a vegan, all that stuff, um, yeah, it diminished.”
The feature will also have Tyson’s wife Kiki, discussing their life together with their children.
