Hi everyone,
I have a feeling this has been asked before. I have a very active lifestyle and I want to make sure I am eating enough various nutrients to maintain my energy level. I would like to know what athletes who are on a raw food diet are eating every day, especially how much? Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks,
Angela
BTW- I am 5'6" and currently weigh 125lbs.

Alissa, works out everyday and is extremely active, you can check in her book to see what she eats, or you can PM her.

Dr. Doug Graham has an excellent book, "On Nutrition and Athletic Performance" which is really helpful.
He recommends LOTS of fruit!On October 9, 2005, I became a raw marathoner!
On October 22, 2006, I became a two-time raw marathoner!
