Average Joe on the Raw
  • Overview

    A 30-year-old " Average Joe" tries eating a clean, raw, plant-based diet and working out for 60 days, on an experimental journey to test the effect on his physical, mental, and emotional life. He hopes to transform his complacency and fatigue (on the Standard American Diet) to an improved version of himself. Medical benchmarks are measured, as experts and others weigh in with opinions and commentary along the way, in a light-hearted look at the modern struggle for health. This is an open conversation, offering hope to us all.
