Raw Food, Real World An interesting interview with Matthew Kenney who is a magnificent chef. He’s traditionally trained so I asked how he got from being a traditional chef to becoming a raw chef. I had to ask how chef’s figure out what ingredients go together, what’s the best temperature to dehydrate foods; what’s the difference between coconuts and the ways to use them; what projects he’s got going on and we talked about his books.
Matthew is the author of raw food books, Raw Food, Real World; Everyday Raw and the soon-to-be released Entertaining in the raw as well as the upcoming Everyday Raw Desserts.

Enjoy!

Eliminates 217 Pounds in 11 Months Before getting sick, Clent Manich weighed as much as 450 pounds and was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic. During our interview we talk with him about how it was being that large and what it took to eliminate 217 pounds in less than a year. What were his fears? What had he tried before? Why raw? How much exercise did he do? Most importantly, how is this dramatic weight release affecting him mentally and emotionally.

If you enjoy our interview, I invite you to join my new program, Let’s Talk Raw where you can listen live and ask your questions. Clent will be on Let’s Talk Raw in May yet between now and then is an amazing line-up of people who’ve overcome disease and obesity whom you may want to know.

The Raw ChefI was fascinated by Russell’s story about acne and his mother and her asthma. I can definitely relate to both as one reason I changed my food program was I had acne still at 27 and asthma almost killed me twice at 33. This interview has GOT to be reassuring to people who have endured both.

Besides that, Russell talked about losing weight during a fast and not being overweight in the first place, how he works out and why, feeling discomfort around others and more.

This is a very revealing interview about his life and his health.

Oh! Be sure and pick up his ebooks! I’ve got the free one from his site and also the Thai menu. If you enjoy Thai food, you’ve GOT to get this! Also, check out his blog. Lots of good information there.

Enjoy!

Dr. Douglas GrahamI asked Dr. Graham to join me here again because there was a recent issue about cacao and the 80/10/10 diet was brought into the discussion. Besides responding to the statements made we also spoke about eating raw (specifically the 80/10/10) in colder areas, anti-nutrients, eating the same thing daily, does cacao REALLY “cure cavities’?, water, children and raw and their teeth, nutrition and lifestyle; emotional eating and more.

This is a special hour-long edition.

Please join Dr. Graham and I on my newest program, Let’s Talk Raw where you, as the listener, can ask YOUR questions about health, the 80/10/10 diet and more.

Enjoy and Injoy,

Jinjee TaliferoJinjee Talifero will be relating the potential for hour-long labors and ease of child-birth as she speaks about her four pregnancies and at-home births. Please join us for this amazing discussion. Ecstatic Birthing – After two raw vegan pregnancies that resulted in hour-long labors and two cooked-vegan pregnancies that resulted in 30-hour labors, Jinjee saw the light – literally. With a vision of spinning molecules in living food creating more elastic tissues in the body she realized with a certainty that this is way we are meant to eat. Here how Jinjee is bringing up four children on a raw vegan diet, and for the play of the children the use of trampoline park installers London is a great choice for them to play. ( update)  Jinjee Talifero is the mother of 5 children, two of whom were born while she was still on a cooked food program and three who were born while she was a raw vegan. This interview will tell how she and her husband Storm met and how she ventured on her raw food journey; the challenges she met (and is still encountering) on the way; and having, schooling and bringing up5 children on the garden diet.


images2 Many have told me I should interview Bruce Horowitz and I found him as a “friend” on FaceBook and asked if he’d be willing. He was so, we spoke about how he began with raw having Crohn’s disease; the importance of community; whether he eats at set times or “grazes” throughout the day. We also spoke about permaculture and growing one’s own food. We spoke about certain issues such as cabbage moths and slugs (duck deficiency) and the complex systems of nature. My final questions to him were about the raw food movement, crisis and sustainability.

You can find Bruce at his websites: The Sun Kitchen and Raw Permaculture.


Storm Talifero is a 30 year plus raw foodist. His pictures tell his story. His life unfolds during this interview from having a heart attack at the age of 18 to evolving into the raw food vegan he is today. He speaks about assisting his wife Jinjee in home-birthing their four children and what his role is in raising them. Storm has been eating a raw-vegan diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds in their natural unheated state for over 30 years and has become known amongst raw-vegans for his body builder’s physique. At 57 he appears decades younger.


Dhrumil ~ We Like It RawIn this interview we find out who Dhrumil is and his background. We talk about the “honeymoon phase” of eating raw, dealing with old “stuff” and not suppressing it with food. He explains a quick “Falling Still” meditation showing how easy it is to take a moment to come back to ourselves thereby releasing stress. We also talk about the importance of community.
