Chris Kendall was born August 17th 1980 in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada. He earns his Banana's by offering his services up By Donation as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, 100% Raw Food Lifestyle Coach/Mentor, offering both Yoga and Skateboarding lessons/classes as well as flowing as a Full Time Live in Raw Food Lifestyle Coach.
Since the age of 5 Chris pushed himself athletically as a skateboarder, and 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 first 5 years of personal research, Chris underwent multiple cleanses, read dozens of books, and gained knowledge from various natural health practitioners and enthusiasts. It was in these first few years that a transition from "sad" (standard American diet) to a more whole foods vegetarian, and then vegan diet was made and real progress began. A 2nd passion was born in Holistic Nutrition and Natural Hygiene, one that would consume him and forever entwine with his life.
While attending schooling to become a R H N (Registered Holistic Nutritionist) Chris went to a health festival to expand his learning and consequently found the low fat raw vegan lifestyle. While at the festival he was fortunate to learn directly from a undisputed leader in the field and at the time twenty-seven year raw foodist Dr Douglas Graham. As if hit by lightening Chris intellectually saw and felt Doug's Truth, within the first day meeting Dr Graham Chris adopted a 100% low fat raw vegan lifestyle. This first life changing trial lasted for 1 month, followed by 8 months on the second go. Since then he hasn't looked back beyond some common early transitional bumps and/or "fall's off the wagon."
Over the years Chris has compiled his early experiences, successes, and failures to help others sift through what took him years to find, and others a lifetime, our natural species specific diet. The focus being on transitioning to high raw, or a 100% low fat raw vegan lifestyle in the easiest, most healthful, straight forward way possible to vastly improve ones health, fitness and well-being. Chris's greatest wish is to live through dedicating his life to helping others, and in doing so spread the message of Natural Hygiene all while growing in his chosen disciplines.
