Meet Jim Morris.

He’s a 77-year old bodybuilder.

Although that statement itself is newsworthy, there’s more. The former Mr. New York (1966), Mr. California (1970) and Mr. Universe (1977), turned vegetarian at 50, then vegan at 65.

Morris explained to Frugivore Magazine how dropping all animal products did much more than get him ripped.

“Prior to becoming vegan I suffered digestive problems all my life, mainly constipation. I started taking anti inflammatory medication in 1966 for my joints. At one point I was getting cortisone injections directly into both elbows every week. The arthritis kept me awake at night.”

Roll’s diet is certainly a factor that will come up in an interview, and he humorously touched on it during a conversation that also blended remarks on the quality of produce on a fast food sandwich.

When asked if he misses eating meat, Roll’s simply reply was, “I’m human.”

Daniel Bryan has made the official announcement he’s no longer adhering to a 100% vegan diet.

The WWE athlete claims this is no longer feasible because he’s develop soy sensitivities.

[Laughs.] But I was getting sick all the time, and they were trying to figure out what it was and they found out it was the soy.”

“Being on the road, being vegan and trying to get your protein in other than soy, there’s just nothing to eat. There’s soy in everything. Most of the vegan things you can eat are tofu dishes and whatnot, made out of soy.”
