Scientific Study Data Results: The Tarahumara were found to follow a 94% Vegan, 96% Vegetarian plant-based diet.

The Tarahumara tribe of native aboriginal indians live in Copper Canyon, Mexico, in south central America. Actual scientific analysis data revealed that the Tarahumara are eating a diet which is 94% Vegan, 96% Vegetarian, and breaking some of the greatest known human endurance records. Whereas a Marathon is a tough endurance race for anyone, the Tarahumara, using their formula for a plant-based diet, can run distances of over 200-miles, with no problem. They eat grain, and were found to be among the healthiest and fittest endurance athletes on the planet.
