Raw Power and Raw Foods

Date:   5/7/2006 9:05:04 AM ( 18 y ago)

Many athletes think they are healthy because of their physical appearance. However, there is an increasing number of athletes who are not well because they lack nutrients. Marilyn D. Fitzgerald, a competitive athlete for over two decades, thought she was well after beating the battle of emotional eating, but years later learned she had a life threatening health challenge called Candida, an over-growth of bacteria in the body. “I was dying on the inside and did not know it,” said Fitzgerald.

Some of the causes of Candida include heavy consumption of sugar products, suppressed negative emotions and stress. Candida has many symptoms and most athletes and people don’t know they have it. Candida was a wake up call for Fitzgerald. This disorder influenced her to take an inner journey to eating living and raw foods and being emotionally and physically fit.

Fitzgerald is a nationally known life enhancement and wellness keynote and workshop presenter. She is also the author of Change Your Minds; Change Your Lives and The Spirit of a Winner- 31 day guided wellness journal. A competitive tri-athlete and a former co-host of the Les Brown personal development show. She is a certified trainer for the Heart Zone's Health, Energy, Weight Management and Emotional Fitness Training Programs. She was an overweight, emotional eater who discovered what she calls the “Health Connection." Today she maintains a Raw Foodist diet and empowers others to make the health connection.
