 Ruth Heidrich

“When I was 47 and working on my PhD, I was diagnosed with breast cancer,” said Heidrich in a recent interview with the Maui Weekly. Heidrich underwent surgery to have the malignant lump removed. Unfortunately, further testing showed that the cancer had already spread. “The doctors found hotspots in her bones and also a lesion in her lung. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it. The decision to go vegan changed Heidrich’s life. She has authored the book and video, “A Race For Life’ and also wrote “The Race For Life Cookbook”, a guide to cooking delicious and healthy food for optimum health and nutrition. Revvell interviews this amazing woman.


Previously posted on another site, here it is again ~ in light of having just been to the Raw Spirit Festival.

Happy Oasis is the Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Raw Spirit Festival, a 501c3 non-profit corporation. When we did this interview, she was in Hawaii, enjoying the lovely weather. We chatted about the Raw Spirit Festival, her life and many other things. Please listen in; I know you’ll enjoy it.

Brigitte has been working with natural medicine for more than 30 hyears. She teaches herbal medicine through Esalen, the Boulder College of Massage Therapy and Naropa Institute. She is the author of several books, including "Rawsome", "Sex, Love and Health" and "Herbs for Healthy Skin & Nails".

I asked Brigitte to be on the show because I saw that she was well-versed in foraging, wild plants and herbs ~ something many are taking an interest in to assist in their food budgets. Some of what we talk about are peoples’ fear of plants, dandelions, spraying our plants, nettle juice, purslane and more.

We also talked about her book "Rawsome" which I reviewed earlier in my blog.

Listen in… I’m sure you’ll learn something from this enchanting conversation.

This interview went everywhere but where I expected it to. We talked about breastfeeding, outgassing from furniture, nutrients during pregnancy and for children, transitioning and more.

Shazzie was born in Yorkshire, England on 23rd of January 1969. At the age of 16 she became a vegetarian and was an ethical vegan 2 years later. At the age of 30, Shazzie became a raw foodist for health reasons. For almost four years she ate an exclusively raw vegan diet, then, during pregnancy, she ate some cooked food due to cravings and sickness. Now, she’s about 95% raw, and is happy there. Becoming a raw foodist was an intrinsic part of her journey towards mental, spiritual and physical freedom.

In 2004, Shazzie gave birth to her beautiful daughter Evie. She’s also a raw foodist, and is breastfed, unvaccinated, co-sleeps and is as natural as someone can be in the UK! She’s happy, intelligent and very healthy. Shazzie and Evie live together in Cambridge, UK.

Brendan BrazierBrendan was introduced to me by Mark Perlmutter of Raw Summit fame, who I’d interviewed on this program awhile back. I gave him a call and he took time from his busy schedule to have a chat here.

Of course we talked about his diet before raw and how and when he chose to become raw.  We talked about how other athletes view him, staying raw while traveling, how he keeps weight on, how important is water; is he into "super foods", caffeine and colonics.

We spoke about his book, The Thrive Diet which is a good transition book for people who wish to go raw as it’s plant-based with raw options.

Enjoy!

In this in-studio interview, Revvell and Philip discuss how Philip eliminated 200 pounds in two years, on the living foods program. Revvell then asks Philip questions many people who are beginning want to know such as ~ did you go 100% immediately or transition? Did you consume nuts? Count calories? Exercise?

We also spoke about the after effects of eliminating so much weigh/fat in such a relatively short time such as loose skin. How does Philip travel and stay raw?

These and many other questions were answered in this enlightening interview with someone who did it and went all the way.

Enjoy!

Ronnie and Minh are raw foodist husband and wife. Minh is a second generation raw & living food chef, she was born in Viet Nam in 1950 into a humble and loving Buddhist family, she is the youngest of eight children. At a very young age Minh began learning which plants were edible and which were not, how to find food and medicines in the jungle and how to use them. She spent her youth helping her mother grow, gather and prepare food for their family. They used simple and ancient techniques without electricity to prepare nourishing and great tasting food. In this way the art of preparing raw food was passed from generation to generation without even knowing what “raw food” was, to them it was just food. In 1963 one of Minhs’ brothers was kidnapped by the North Vietnamese Army, her mother was devastated and sought guidance through prayer and from Buddhist Monks. Minhs mother was already a vegetarian but she received a revelation that if she gave up cooking and ate only uncooked vegetarian food her son would return to her, she did so and a year and a half later her son retuned to her unharmed. Minhs mother continued to eat only raw food until she died in 2005 at the age of 93.

Ronnie is an Essene Philosopher who spends his time and energy promoting Raw & Living Foods
and the teachings of the Essenes. Contact Ronnie and/or Minh at info@ubraw.com

 


Marcus Rothkranz

Visionary, artist, filmmaker, director, write, production designer and raw food advocate…. star of the Raw World Tour, Marcus Rothkranz. Another enjoyable interview. I knew nothing about Marcus except from his website. Found him to be very knowledgeable, grounded and inspirational. We talked about his childhood which, health-wise reflected my own. Having a weak immune system and various allergies to become healthier at 46 than he was in his teens and 20’s. So fun to see and hear more and more of these kinds of stories and seeing one of his talents spreading the word using his talents and sharing his story and experiences with others.
