Raw Food Diet: I Quit Cooking 16 Years Ago and completed 8 Marathons, Zero Medications, No Chronic Disease

from The True Form Podcast · host Jack L Graham

What if everything you believed about cooking your food was wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Axay Shah, founder of Raw Foodiest, bestselling author of IN NATURE WE TRUST, and a man who at 67, has been 100% plant-based and raw for over 16 years, with 21 years of documented medical proof: zero medications, zero chronic disease, and 8 marathons completed. Axay isn't a doctor or a nutritionist. He's a businessman who ran an experiment on himself at age 50, and never looked back. In this conversation, we break down why cooked food is draining your energy, how your body is like a business running on a currency called energy, and why listening to your body might be the single most important health habit you're ignoring.In this episode with Axay Shah:🔷 Why humans are the only species that cook their food, and what that's costing us.🔷 The evolutionary reason cooked food was once a blessing but is now a burden.🔷 How raw food went from a 6-week experiment to a 16-year lifestyle.🔷 What a full day of eating looks like at 67 with more energy than most 30-year-olds.🔷 Energy as a currency: why low energy is like being financially bankrupt.🔷 The five "poisons”, Axay says, are wrecking your body's factory.🔷 How to transition into raw food without shocking your system.🔷 Why self-experimentation and tracking beat any study funded by industry.🔷 Supplements: what Axay actually takes and why he's not against them.🔷 His one practical tip for every person on the planet: start listening to your body.Connect with Axay Shah: Website: www.rawfoodiest.com Book (IN NATURE WE TRUST): https://a.co/d/0j5uR0Am Medical Proof: https://rawfoodiest.com/medical-proof/ Author's Website: https://innaturewetrust.net/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rawfoodiest/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RawFoodiest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shahaxay/Want the quick takeaways?
