In this interview I speak with Genesis Sunfire.  Genesis became one of the most controversial characters in the alternative health world when he began to claim to be a breatharian.In this interview we discuss his journey from being a professional Rugby player who did not pay much attention to nutrition to an almost over night transition to becoming a fruitarian, then liquidarian and then his experiment with fasting which led him to becoming labelled as a breatharian.He no longer supports or encourages people to practise breatharianism (and says he never did) and is currently on a vegan and high fruit diet.  He publicly state that he believed those involved in promoting breatharianism were involved in a scam and were only doing it for money.This interview should not be seen as a promotion for breatharianism and Genesis himself does not support the idea.  It is my position that no human can live on prana, breath or cosmic energy and that people claiming to be breatharian are misrepresenting the truth.  Genesis
