Summary
In this episode of Raw Talks, Alex interviews Dr. Doug Graham to imagine a raw vegan “New Earth”—a future where people live longer, healthier, and more compassionate lives. Doug shares his experience as a 72-year-old world champion powerlifter, explains why the real goal is healthspan and “flourish-span,” and tells the story of raising his daughter 100% raw vegan in the UK.
They discuss longevity, athletic performance, parenting, the energy of food, and how a plant-based world could lead to kinder societies, nearly empty hospitals, and produce-filled grocery stores. A powerful conversation about human potential, responsibility, and creating a healthier world—one choice at a time.
