A few months ago I stumbled
upon Mimi Kirk – a 74 year old
woman who lives a raw diet and
looks not a day over 40. Now
while I am not all that
i n t e r e s t e d i n o u t s i d e b e a u t y, a s
I believe true beauty comes
from the heart. There was
something about Mimi that just
intrigued me, I think it goes
beyond her outside beauty – I
think it is the radiance, passion
and youthfulness that shines
f r o m w i t h i n h e r.
Many people fear getting older, fear that
they will lose there looks, energy, health and
zest for life and I believe that Mimi is living
proof that a person only gets better with
age. There really is something about Mimi. I
was lucky enough to have the opportunity to
ask Mimi a few questions, so please read on
and become inspired….
What inspired you to become a raw vegan?
MK: I’ve been a vegetarian/vegan for the
better part of 40 years, but became a raw
vegan at sixty-nine when I found out my
blood pressure and cholesterol were high. I
was also starting to get arthritis pains. I did
not want to start taking drugs, so I
researched and learned about the benefits of
a raw food diet.
