The Raw Food Health Podcast

Beyond fat loss and fat gain, are you happy with the figure that looks back at you from the mirror? Is it scrawny or gangly? Would you rather that it had the strength to lift heavier things and propel you through the world? In episode 14 of the Raw Food Health Podcast I help Marina Grubic get a handle on her recent body fat and muscle mass reading, and suggest ways that she can sculpt her body to get the figure that she wants. I also talk about the limitations of body sculpting, and just how effective you can be in changing how you look. Other Topics: 1) Andrew’s raw thanksgiving. Show Notes: 1) Avoiding cramps, gas, and stomach aches when mixing fruits and vegetables. 2) Andrew’s squat stretch 30-day trial.

Want to feel better, look better, and perform better physically? Will the shift to a raw food diet really help you with all this? In episode 12 of the Raw Food Health Podcast I talk to Katy Craine, who adopted a low fat raw vegan diet at the age of 16.

You dream big – shelves overflowing with fruit and plenty of greens and herbs in the fridge; an abundant pantry is key when it comes to succeeding on a raw food diet. But if you try to buy all these wonderful foods through a traditional supermarket, you’re going to go broke. Luckily, there are ways to save a lot of money by cutting out middle men, pooling your buying power, and picking up food that is considered, “overripe”, but which isn’t really. In episode ten of the raw food health podcast we talk about what you can do to save big. Other Topics: 1) Andrew gives an update on moving to Austin 2) How to get rid of fruit flies 3) Outdoor body weight exercises in the absence of gym equipment.

What’s the best place to be a raw foodist? It becomes obvious to most people eating a raw food diet for more than a few months that their societies are not ideally set up to allow them to thrive at their highest level. You can make your home, and your home town, much healthier places, but sometimes you just want to vacation or move to an ideal setup. I’ve traveled pretty extensively, and I know that in my mind, there are a handful of places that I think of when it comes to ideal raw food living. What place is at the top of my list? Find out in this podcast. Other Topics Covered: 1) My view on Don Bennett’s preference for multivitamin pills and powdered greens over whole, fresh vegetables 2) Why the tropics are not always as ideal as we might think. 3) Turkish gettups with a barbell. 4) The peanut butter and banana sandwich replacer. Show Notes: 1) Greening The Desert 2) Muang Mai Market 3) Why The Grass Isn’t Always Greener Down South 4) Savory Raw Dressings And Sauces How To Listen To This Episode And/Or Subscribe To The Podcast: Note: new episodes may take a few hours to show up on some subscription platforms, but you can always listen immediately via the player at the bottom of this blog.

What if you didn’t have to get old? I’m not talking about Peter Pan and his lost boys not growing up, but a kind of maturity in which the symptoms that virtually everyone in the western world experiences as they get older -arthritis, loss of energy, the development of diseases, and the need for medications – just do not occur. Don Bennett is a 56-year-old health educator who feels like he’s getting younger on his diet of raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, and in episode eight of The Raw Food Health Podcast I talk to him about bucking the aging trend with the right food and lifestyle choices. Topics Don and I Discuss: 1) Finding the raw diet from an intellectual approach 2) Don’s experience with getting older without feeling older after more than 20 years on a raw food diet. 3) Why Don thinks we need to be supplementing a diet that comes from the modern agricultural system. 4) We discuss dogmatic adherence to a raw food diet. 5) Supplementing with the mineral chromium.
