Summary:

Jeff shares how he went from severe Stage 10 Crohn’s disease, daily vomiting, and being told he needed surgery… to rebuilding his health through raw food and long-term water fasting.

In this live talk in Bali, he breaks down his 90-day juice cleanse, multiple 21-day water fasts, detox experiences, emotional trauma release, and why fasting became more powerful than diet alone.

He also shares how his 77-year-old mother reversed her health issues through fasting — and the hard truths about healing, addiction, and living in Bali as a highly sensitive, health-conscious person.

This is a raw, unfiltered conversation about radical healing, personal responsibility, and transformation.

Summary

In this episode of Raw Talks, Alex interviews Dr. Doug Graham to imagine a raw vegan “New Earth”—a future where people live longer, healthier, and more compassionate lives. Doug shares his experience as a 72-year-old world champion powerlifter, explains why the real goal is healthspan and “flourish-span,” and tells the story of raising his daughter 100% raw vegan in the UK.

They discuss longevity, athletic performance, parenting, the energy of food, and how a plant-based world could lead to kinder societies, nearly empty hospitals, and produce-filled grocery stores. A powerful conversation about human potential, responsibility, and creating a healthier world—one choice at a time.

Summary:

In this talk, Dr. Doug Graham explains why health is not a diet, a trend, or a supplement plan — but a way of living aligned with human design. He breaks down the difference between health and medicine, why many raw food approaches failed, and why 80-10-10 has proven sustainable over decades.

Covering sleep, strength training, fasting myths, supplements, aging, and longevity, Doug challenges “normal” health advice and reframes what it actually means to be healthy. The core message is simple: practice, consistency, and first-principle thinking create real, lasting health.

Summary

Sinclair shares his journey from a rugby injury to discovering fasting as a powerful tool for healing.

After completing multiple long fasts, including a 40-day water fast, he experienced not just physical recovery but deep emotional and spiritual breakthroughs.

He emphasizes that fasting is not a quick fix, but a reset that works best when combined with rest, proper refeeding, and emotional awareness.

His approach blends high-fruit nutrition, regular cleansing, and meditation to support both performance and inner balance.

Ultimately, he believes true healing comes from aligning the body, mind, and emotions—not just removing food.
