Diet
He said: “This season I’ve been on more of a plant-based diet diet, getting away from all the animals and all that. I had to get away from that.”
Sharing the side effects of his new diet, Irving said: “My energy is up and my body feels amazing.
“Just understanding what the diet is like for me…means I’ve been able to sustain my energy at the highest level.”
