Summary:

In this first episode of Raw Talks, Alex sits down with Eli Martyr in Bali to break down what it really means to thrive on a high-fruit raw vegan (frutarian) diet—without becoming weak, skinny, or low-energy. Eli shares his 10-year experience eating mostly fruit.

They talk calories on a fruit diet, metabolic efficiency over time, why beginners may need bananas and dates early on, and how the body adapts to lower stimulation and cleaner fuel. The conversation also covers raw vegan social life, eating at restaurants, family dynamics, mindset, mental training, and reconnecting with your body’s natural intelligence.
