Hi Dr Doug and thank you for everything that you do to make this planet healthier.

My family lives in a remote part of US where it is difficult to get hold of sufficient good quality fruit. I will be staying with them and helping them for several weeks shortly. My dilemma is that I am an endurance athlete and I enjoy sport. Without sport, I don't feel good. Yet, without raw fruit I don't feel good either and I enjoy being 80/10/10 100% raw vegan.

So my question is - what would you do in my position? Would you continue training and perhaps eat some cooked starches for carbs during these weeks? Or would you cut down on training during this time to stay raw? Cooked starches don't make me feel good; not training doesn't make me feel good either. Yet, I have to go and I have got to make my choice. Would greatly value your opinion.

Thank you, Dr Doug.
