Gladiator Cookbook
By Christian Eckert

Roman gladiators were not, as is often assumed, the poor creatures who allowed themselves to be slaughtered in the arena. On the contrary: some of them were superstars like today's soccer or tennis players. That's why a lot of attention was paid to their diet. Based on a six-month experiment the author conducted with students at the University of Regensburg, it turned out that the gladiators' basic diet is far superior to our modern sports nutrition. In his book, Christian Eckert entertainingly explains why this is so and highlights the nutritious diet of the Roman sports heroes with delicious recipe suggestions.
