I tried a raw fruitarian diet for 2 months at the end of 2007. I failed miserably, became paper thin, felt cold all the time. But here is one pretty lady Freelea who says she is succeeding at fruitarianism or what she calls an 80/10/10 raw vegan diet. But whoa, she eats up to some 50 bananas a day! And tons of fruit!
See her explain a typical fruitarian diet day for her.
Listen to Freelea explain in a more detailed fashion how to succeed at fruitarianism.
Now don’t mistake this blog post as an endorsement of fruitarianism. I repeat, fruitarianism didn’t work for me. I stayed raw, raw paleo, raw fruit raw meat and a few raw vegetables here and there. But for some people like Freelea, fruitarianism has been working so far at some 3 years for her.
I have heard that her good friend Durian Rider is also on the same diet as her but was rumored to be taking B12 shots.
What I do know is people run out of B12 sooner or later, but for now, enjoy Freelea’s videos.
