Join me for an informative and lively hour with Chris Kendall of The Raw Advantage. Chris is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, lifelong athlete, and 100% Raw Food Lifestyle Coach / Mentor. Since the age of 5 he has pushed himself athletically as a skateboarder and is currently competitive raw vegan athlete / amateur skateboarder. Taking part in a period of poor lifestyle and food choices in his mid to late teens led to early injury, poor recovery, with a predictable decline in vitality and vigor. It was these experiences that spawned a early interest in nutrition and its connection to fitness by the age of 18. During his schooling in 2003/2004 to become a RHN, Chris met long term raw foodists Dr Douglas Graham at a Vegan health festival and went 100% raw over night, his whole life and perspective changed from that point on.

You may also have heard him on ABC, WGN, and/or CBS radio, or UPN TV. Disillusioned by what traditional psychology had to offer overweight and/or food obsessed individuals, Dr. Livingston spent several decades researching the nature of bingeing and overeating via work with his own patients AND a self-funded research program with more than 40,000 participants. Most important, however, was his own personal journey out of obesity and food prison to a normal, healthy weight and a much more lighthearted relationship with food.
