It's inspiring to see so many incredible game changers join this superfood journey with us. We've only just begun," Williams wrote. In 2011, the seven-time Grand Slam champion was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, resulting in a long break from tennis for her. She made significant changes to her diet and worked with top nutritionists around the world. As Williams turned to a plant-based diet, she experienced its benefits to her mind and body. The 42-year-old wants others to enjoy the benefits as well. "I truly believe the better fuel we drink and eat, the better we perform and feel," Williams wrote on the official website.
