In this episode of Rapid Regeneration, I share the exact steps I took to transition from a highly acidic, processed-food lifestyle to a more alkaline, fruit-rich way of eating—without setting out to go “plant-based” or “raw vegan.” If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start, this is the episode that will help you build momentum without guilt, stress, or impossible standards.
I cover how I began my journey in late 2015 with no plans to give up meat or processed food, and how through deep cleansing and herbal supplementation, my appetite naturally shifted. You’ll learn how I slowly added more raw foods into my day—starting with simple fruit meal replacements and strategic meal delayment—and how that approach turned into a complete lifestyle change over the course of two and a half years. This isn’t about perfection or being 100% raw; it’s about listening to your body, tuning into your cravings, and making smarter, more nourishing decisions one step at a time.
If you’ve ever wondered how to make healthy eating sustainable—especially if you’re coming from a background of heavy cooked foods, sugar, dairy, or fast food—this episode breaks it down in practical terms. I talk about satisfying your body’s cravings for fat and protein with raw options like avocado, nuts, and coconut instead of trying to fight against your instincts. I also explain how to upgrade your cooked meals when you’re not ready to give them up entirely, so your body still gets relief from toxic overload while staying grounded and full.
We also explore how cleansing can supercharge this process by reducing cravings and giving you a genuine desire to eat better—not because you “should,” but because your body is actually asking for it.
This episode is especially helpful if:
– You’re interested in a raw food or alkaline diet but don’t know where to start
– You want to detox and transition off junk food without extreme restrictions
– You’re looking to support chronic illness recovery through nutrition
– You’re curious about fruitarian or plant-based eating as part of a larger healing plan
You don’t need to be perfect. You don’t need to commit to anything long term. Just take one step. Add one fruit meal. Swap one food choice. I promise, the path will reveal itself.
If you’re ready to start transitioning to a more vibrant, energized life—this episode is your guide.
