Why Raw Food Works: The Energy Equation

"Life is Energy & Energy is Life"

🔥 Living Enzymes

Raw Food contains active enzymes that support digestion and cellular function. Cooking destroys these enzymes at 118°F.

💧 Optimal Hydration

High water content in Raw Food fruits and vegetables means cellular hydration at the deepest level.

🌿 Anti-Inflammatory

Plant compounds reduce inflammation throughout the body. My ALT dropped from 44 to 21, proof of reduced inflammation!

⚡ Clean Energy

No metabolic burden from processing cooked, processed foods, more energy available for LIFE, healing, and vitality.

My medical reports prove this isn't just theory, it's measurable, clinical science.

21 years of medical data don't lie

These are my medical reports from my doctor, verifiable, measurable, REAL.

Common Questions I Receive

Q: How do you get enough protein?

A: Nuts, seeds, sprouts, leafy greens. My lean muscle mass (BMI 22.74), and marathon performance at 66 prove it works. You don't need animal protein to be strong.

Q: Don't you get hungry all the time?

A: Raw Foods are high in fiber and water, they're incredibly filling! My stable blood sugar (HbA1C 5.9%) means no energy crashes or cravings.

Q: What about vitamin B12?

A: A: I get my B12 naturally through nutritional yeast flakes (which I have with my vegetable dinner every day) and from my homemade coconut kombucha (which I drink daily). Both are part of my Raw Food lifestyle and provide all the B12 I need. No synthetic supplements required!

Q: Can this work for everyone?

A: I believe everyone can benefit from more Raw Food in their diet. 100% Raw works for me, but even 50–80% Raw can transform your health. Start where you are.

Q: Did your doctor approve this lifestyle?

A: My doctor sees my results and says, "Keep up the great work!" Results speak louder than opinions. My medical data is undeniable proof.

Key Lessons from 16+ Years

1

Movement is Essential

COVID lockdown taught me, Raw Food and exercise create optimal health. Diet alone isn't enough. Your body needs both nutrition and movement.

2

Consistency Over Perfection

I've lived 100% Raw for 16+ years. Consistency creates transformation, not occasional effort. Small daily choices compound into extraordinary results.

3

Listen to Your Body

My energy levels, sleep quality, and athletic performance guide me more than any diet book. Your body tells you what it needs, learn to listen.

4

Trust the Process

Results don't happen overnight. My liver took years to optimize (ALT 44, 21). Be patient, stay consistent, and trust that your body knows how to heal.

5

Evidence Over Opinion

I track my health with medical tests. Data doesn't lie, these reports are my proof. Measure, track, and verify. Let results be your teacher.

Your Opportunity for Transformation

If I can control Type 2 Diabetes, run marathons at 66, and achieve optimal health markers...

Keep That Flame Furning Bright 🔥

"If Mother Nature didn't make it, it doesn't go on my plate"

🎯 Target for Diabetics

The goal is less than 7.0% for diabetics. I achieved 5.9%, better than most people without diabetes!

⚡ Energy Efficiency

Lower HbA1C means better glucose metabolism, and more cellular energy for LIFE.

🛡️ Protection

Every 1% reduction in HbA1C reduces the risk of complications by 40%.

My 5.9% HbA1C means:

ZERO diabetic complications after years of diagnosis. No eye damage, kidney damage, nerve damage, or heart disease.

KIDNEY FUNCTION: Pristine

Creatinine

0.94

mg/dL

OPTIMAL

Normal: 0.72–1.25

Microalbumin/Creatinine

<8.7

EXCELLENT

Normal: <30

Urine Albumin

<5.0

EXCELLENT

Normal: <120

💡 Key Insight:

Many diabetics develop kidney disease within 10–15 years. My kidneys show ZERO damage and IMPROVING function over time.

Raw Food Connection: Raw plant-based foods = optimal hydration + reduced metabolic stress on kidneys.

LIVER HEALTH: Optimal Function

ALT (Liver Enzyme), Lower is Better

December 2004

44

units/L

August 2025

21

units/L

OPTIMAL

🎯 Dropped from 44, 21 and stayed there!

That's a 52% improvement in liver function

What This Means:

  • Zero fatty liver disease, common in diabetics
  • No liver inflammation
  • Optimal detoxification capacity
  • Raw Food is powerfully anti-inflammatory

Normal range is <59, but optimal is <30. My ALT of 21 is EXCEPTIONAL for someone my age.

🦠 The COVID-19 Impact (2020, 2022)

Pre-COVID (2019, 2020)

Optimal health metrics, regular marathon training, active lifestyle

During COVID Lockdown (2020, 2022)

Lockdown restrictions, reduced physical movement, gym closures

Impact: Triglycerides spiked to 224 mg/dL (June 2022)

Post-COVID Recovery (2023, 2025)

Resumed training, completed more marathons

Recovery: Triglycerides back to 100 mg/dL, all metrics improved!

Lesson Learned:

Even with the best Raw Food diet, MOVEMENT is essential for optimal health. The combination of Raw Food, physical activity creates complete metabolic health.

CHOLESTEROL PANEL: Excellent Ratios
