- #24 Living with Type 1 Diabetes | Robby Barbaro
Robby is the cofounder of Mastering Diabetes and the founder of Mindful Diabetic. He was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 12, and embraced a low-fat, plant-based, whole-food diet 4 years after his diagnosis. To this day, his hemoglobin A1c value has never exceeded 6.4% since adopting this lifestyle. Robby graduated from the University of Florida in 2011 and worked at Forks Over Knives for 6 years before turning his attention to coaching people with diabetes full time.
In this episode, I speak with Robby Barbaro about what it's like living with Type 1 diabetes, what a plant based diet can do for those who have type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and what forms of insulin diabetics should take.

1 hr 6 min - #19 Running Raw Around Australia & Beating Cancer | Alan Murray & Janette Murray-Wakelin
Alan and Janette Murray wanted to inspire and motivate conscious lifestyle choices, to promote kindness and compassion for all living beings and to raise environmental awareness for a sustainable future. In 2013, they decided to run around Australia, 15,782km, running 366 marathons (43 km) each in 366 days, no days off. On January 1, 2014, they set a new World Record as the only couple over the age of 60 fuelled entirely on raw fruit and veg, wearing barefoot shoes, to run 366 consecutive marathons while Running Raw Around Australia.
Since then, Alan and Janette have created a documentary called "RAW the Documentary" and authored the book "Running Out of Time" documenting their huge accomplishment. In addition, Janette is also the author of "Raw Can Cure Cancer" which talks about her 6 month prognosis of breast cancer and how she was able to beat it by eating a raw vegan diet.
In this episode, I speak with this inspiring couple about their journey Running Raw Around Australia, what they ate, how to get into ultra running, and how Janette beat cancer.
