Novak Djokovic follows a mostly plant-based diet, but has not specifically identified as vegan. He stated that he avoids animal products due to allergies, including gluten, dairy, and refined sugar. Djokovic has cut out red meat, claiming it slowed him down and affected his digestion. He even served as an executive producer on the documentary The Game Changers, which promotes the benefits of plant-based eating for athletes.
Despite the belief that successful athletes require a diet high in animal products, Djokovic is part of a growing number of sportspeople challenging this stereotype. Many other athletes, such as members of the PlantBuilt strength team and strongman Patrik Baboumian, have found success while following plant-based diets. Djokovic's daily meals include light, easily digestible foods, focused on whole grains, vegetables, and fruits.
