Hope you all survived the holidaze. I barely did. We were in England, where mass quantities of cheese, pot pies, christmas puddings, and fine cask ales were consumed. We had a great time and I had the “this is a holiday, so enjoy yourself” mentality the whole time. Back to the routine now, though. It … Continue reading »

Interview With A Madman (Dieter)
I have known Matt (Ganyoon) for over 10 years. In all of our conversations, I don’t think one has ever been about diet. Mainly we discussed the merits of early 80′s Michael McDonald songs and the genius of British prog maestros, Gong. So I was surprised to hear that he has started eating more raw … Continue reading »

With only 1 more day left, Tyson is well on his way to a 100% successful juice fast. When I saw him last night, he was noticeably skinnier, had an energetic spark in his eyes and even an orange glow to his skin. A new man! Another 10 days and you will look like Carrot … Continue reading »
