The Botanical Fruitarian: Our Species-Specific Diet EBOOK

WHAT IF WE HAVE BEEN ASKING THE WRONG QUESTION?

A Radical Return to Nature.

What if food is more than calories, protein, vitamins and minerals? What if the way we eat is inseparable from our relationship with Nature, our environment, our emotions, and our spiritual lives?

The Botanical Fruitarian is not another extreme fruitarian diet built around endless bananas, dates and juice. It is Brandon Nectar's attempt to build a broader, more logical and more natural framework around the idea that humans are frugivorous by design. By returning to the botanical definition of fruit, the world of fruit suddenly becomes enormous—sweet fruits, squashes, nuts, seeds, legumes, grains and countless other offerings from the flowering plant kingdom.

From there, the book goes down the rabbit hole. Local, heirloom and organic produce. Herbs and traditional medicine. The protein myth. Foods and drinks that the author believes work against vitality. Sunlight, fresh air, grounding, movement and sweating. Emotions, trauma and the gut. Chemicals, modern technology and EMFs. And beneath it all, a deeper question: what might human beings become if we seriously committed ourselves to Nature, purification, vitality and the highest version of ourselves?

Part dietary philosophy, part personal journey, and part open invitation to experiment, question and pay attention, this book is for anyone who suspects there is far more to health—and to human potential—than the modern world has taught us.
