I first learned about Ruth Heidrich, vegan triathlete and cancer survivor, from the documentary, FORKS OVER KNIVES. Today, I met Ruth in person as fellow McDougall Adventurer. What fun to chat with her by the Wailua River while both of us were waiting for our outrigger canoe. Here’s a link to our selfie video meeting:

“I'm guessing you might have seen me in that great documentary, Forks Over Knives, or my interview on http://renaissancehumans.com/ruth-heidrich/ . Check out my website, http://www.ruthheidrich.com and my 4 books on nutrition, fitness, & how after a diagnosis of Stage 4 breast cancer, I refused chemo & radiation, and changed to a low-fat vegan diet and to prove just how powerful this diet is, crossed the finish line of the Kona Ironman Triathlon just 2 years later! The first cancer patient to do it and the first vegan to do it! I'd like to get this information out to more people as it's so important for health, the environment, and, of course, the animals!”
