Beyond the Plate: The Mindful Food Journey

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, host Gabrielle Crichlow engages with guest Axay Shah to challenge conventional eating habits. They investigate the compelling argument that if a food item does not originate from Mother Nature, it has no place on our plates. By intertwining ancient wisdom with modern nutritional insights, they provide a roadmap for cultivating a lifestyle that prioritizes living foods and actively avoids harmful substances.Who is Axay Shah?Axay Shah is a dedicated raw foodist and researcher with nearly two decades of experience studying the intersection of nature and human biology. His work, recognized by the Library of Congress and supported by leading medical professionals, including Dr. Shrenik Shah, is driven by his mission to help one million people reclaim their vitality. By bridging the gap between ancient dietary wisdom and modern nutritional science, Axay draws on 16 years of personal practice and research into raw foodism to provide a “biological backbone” for the plant-based community, demonstrating that living foods are the ultimate fuel for the human body.You can find Axay Shah:On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RawFoodiestGuruOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rawfoodiest/On X: https://x.com/RawFoodiestOn YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RawFoodiestOn GoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/19980619.Axay_ShahAxay Shaw's book, "In Nature We Trust: A Raw Food Manifesto for Energy, Healing & Longevity," is an #1 Amazon Best Seller in the The Scientific Manifesto for Energy, Healing & Longevity category.
