He’s 66, Runs Marathons, and Eats ZERO Cooked Food (Raw Diet Explained) with Axay Shah
Text us a comment or question!
What if the biggest reason you feel tired, sluggish, and “older than you should”… has nothing to do with age - and everything to do with what’s on your plate?
In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Axay Shah, a 66-year-old marathon runner who hasn’t eaten cooked food in over 16 years.
Yeah… you read that right.
Axay believes that most of what we’ve been taught about food is flat-out wrong - and that the key to energy, longevity, and disease prevention lies in a raw, plant-based lifestyle.
Now, whether you agree with him or not… this conversation will challenge your thinking.
We dive into:
- Why he gave up cooked food entirely
- What actually happens when you switch to raw foods
- His take on protein (and why he thinks it’s overhyped)
- What he eats in a typical day
- And how he’s able to run marathons well into his 60s
This isn’t about telling you to go 100% raw…
It’s about opening your eyes to what might actually be holding you back.
What You’ll Learn
- The real reason Axay ditched cooked food—and never looked back
- Why he believes most people are low-energy (and it’s NOT aging)
- The surprising truth about “dead food” vs “living food”
- His 5 rules for eating (and living) with more energy
- Why most people are confused about protein—and what actually matters
- How to think differently about food, fuel, and your body
