I call myself The Fruitarian and my diet — Fruitarianism because most of my calories come from fruit.
I do eat greens as well as the occasional root vegetable and coconuts from time to time.

I'm scared, really really scared for the human species. Since becoming a fruitarian and completely rebuilding my body and health to peak levels I now see how sick everyone else is around me.
The diets that are eaten in industrialized society today is a ticket to suffering, death and destruction. Our medical systems and hospitals are [...]

To try to understand health and diet it is important to get out and experience it in person.
