Kombucha fungus is fed by sugar. It's probably not the best thing to have if you're interested in eliminating sugar from your diet. However, I don't suggest you should eliminate fruit from your diet. If you aren't getting the bulk of your calories...
Raw cyclist, runner, weight trainer, and yoga practitioner, but of course there is more to me than that... Hmm, none of those are me, just things I do...

Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
Localy grown organic blueberries when they are in season, fresh picked ripe figs, melons of all varieties, beautiful life giving greens of all sorts, grapefruits, peaches, it's so hard to pick favorites
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
Competing in sporting events, reading books, photography, hikes, bikes, skiing, snowboarding, snowshoe running, studying nature and learning all that I can from her, being an active member of Organic Athlete, expressing myself creatively, personal training, studying exercise and nutrition, writing, finding new things to learn about that interest me, astronomy, drawing, exploring and discovering wonderful landscapes in my own backyard, learning about all of the places that I would like to travel to in the future, thought provoking films and documentaries, the music on my ipod, I have to say Raw Food because it is one of my main passions in life, meeting like-minded people and having great conversation with them, personally picking the food that I'm going to eat either wild or at a farm, shopping at farmers markets in the summer, Okanagan roadside fruit stands, giving raw food to others as gifts, sleeping under the stars on summer nights, running on the beach, discovering new raw fruits that I have never tried before, helping others become fit and healthy through diet and exercise, growing plants (especially ones that I can eat), watching the seasons change, watching the sun rise and set on the same day, meditation and relaxation techniques, taking pictures of wildlife scenery and sunsets...I could go on, life is just so interesting, I don't understand how anyone can ever let themselves become bored.

Hi Kevin! It's so nice to see a raw vegan professional athlete! For a little while I was dubious about my decision to go raw cause I was training for a marathon last year. Now I'm training for my first triathlon and going raw vegan 100%. Love to get some advice and insight from you some time. Peace.
My name is Courtney & I am asking all the "raw athletes" a few question....
I am new to raw food living, but am soooo inspired by this way of life... the only thing I am wondering about is how you are able to get all of your b12 and protien.... I am hoping to train for a full ironman and want to make sure my muscles are able to repair properly.... could you give me some insight? You are quite inspiring!
