A 58-year-old woman from Australia, Sarah Osbourne, has been thriving on a 100% raw fruit diet for over a decade. Osbourne transitioned gradually from a standard diet to veganism and eventually to a fruitarian lifestyle, noting significant improvements in her energy, fitness, and overall health.
You may wonder how someone could survive on a fruit-only diet, but according to Osbourne, she is the healthiest she has ever been.
“We ate pretty healthily and consumed very little processed food. But the day I left home at 19, I became a vegetarian.“One year later, I gave up all animal products and embraced veganism. I noticed the health benefits right away. “I use a vintage 1966 Italian hand juicer. It leaves in most of the fiber yet creates a very smooth juice.
“I’ll make a raw fruitarian ‘cake’ out of organic dried fruit and nuts, carob, coconut and orange juice for these special occasions,” she said. “Soil is so important for mineral content in produce. Deficient and chemical-laden soils can lead to deficient produce and therefore, deficiencies in us.“My health is great. I run about 50km a week and regularly walk 13km into town. I do lots of physical work in the garden.
