Michael Arnstein "The Fruitarian"- Fruit Is Fast Food

I recently got a chance to interview Michael Arnstein at the Woodstock Fruit Festival.

Michael came to the fruitarian diet through a desire initially to improve his performance as a runner. After embracing the lifestyle he was able to show incredible feats of physical performance on a fruit based diet.

As with many people though, the diet lead to many other incredible changes that he did not expect. He has spoken about this extensively on his youtube channel and I believe he is working on a book entitled "Fruit Is Fast Food".

From there he went on to create the Woodstock Fruit Festival- the biggest event of it's kind for people who wish to learn about the fruitarian diet and lifestyle.

Usually at the festival he is a really busy guy but this time around he had some assistants helping him so he had a little more free time and I was able to get a short interview with him.

I got a chance to speak to Mike quite a few times this year.  For me he is the real deal and is genuinely aligned with helping to spread the message of fruit.  He is incredibly passionate about this and has taken some risks to make Woodstock continue to happen.

He has also announce a second "sister festival" to the event which will take place in Hawaii.  His motivation for this came from his own experience of moving to Hawaii and seeing how much better it gets when you are living in the tropics.

The festival has taken a bit of a hit this year resulting from a lot of online drama.  Michael was getting attacked as were many others and it has perhaps tainted some people's view of the festival.

Having attended 3 times I have no hesitation in recommending the festival to everyone.  I have made some incredible friendships and connections through this event and have collected some unforgettable memories. The food is good too.

If you are an the athlete then it is like hog heaven- world class athletes in all sorts of disciplines training every day.  People are constantly going for run's around the lake, bike rides and swim's in the lake.

I have heard all sorts of negative rumours and lies about Woodstock.  I don't want to give them any credence to any of them by writing about them here.  Woodstock is a positive and life affirming event and is the greatest mass gathering we have as a movement that will eventually catch on and start to change the wider world.

Believe me it is coming.
