I saw a historical documentary about Upton Sinclair ( who wrote The Jungle) The documentary said he ate ONLY whole raw fruits and veggies.
Didn't say when it started but he did till the day he died.
I can only guess it was from his study of the meat industry.
Dont have a lot of info on him as it just briefly touched the topic.

Very interesting! He was very well acquainted with the disgusting meat industry. Enough to make anybody go raw!

Well, I guess that's good news for us, since he lived to be 90! :D

How old are the oldest raw foodists? What can we look forward to in terms of longevity for this way of life? Or is there any research done on that?

Interesting. I didn't know that. But, given the focus of his work, ut makes complete sense. Thanks for sharing.
