Plant-Based Diet for Athletes review
A $17.99 ebook on vegan sports nutrition, credited to a doctor with a PhD in Plant-Based Nutrition.
Pass
Plant-based athletes do need to plan protein, iron, B12 and omega-3, so the subject is useful and the contents list covers the right ground. Supplement advice is where accuracy matters most, and the listing does not show what it recommends or on what basis. The co-author's PhD in Plant-Based Nutrition is not a recognised doctorate, and no dietitian or sports-nutrition credential is claimed. Sports dietitians publish free fact sheets on exactly this.

Nutrients, meals, fuelling
The listing covers protein, timing, supplements and sample plans.
It names no specific supplements.
Where accuracy matters
B12, iron and supplement dosing should come from a qualified source.
Sports dietitian associations publish free guidance.
The co-author's degree does not exist
The listing credits Dr. Dolores Martin with a PhD in Plant-Based Nutrition and 31 years of experience. No university awards a doctorate in that, and it is the pattern across the more than 120 titles from this seller in our catalogue: each book gets its own doctor with a PhD in exactly that book's subject.
Three of those names appear twice with different doctorates and different decades of experience, so the credentials are generated rather than held.
The rest of the numbers are decoration
Claims 345000+ readers, although the seller has no website, no catalogue page and no way to check. The $47 regular price sits next to $17.99 on every title in the catalogue and is never charged.
The reviews carry first names and US or European cities, which cannot be verified either.
